DR.. ]. NJ. Munyon-Dear Sir: For years
l have experienced the fortunes of rheu-
matte pains, and for years 1 have main
tanned an unequal struggle in an effort TO
conquer it. The trouble first appeared in
Waukesha, Wis, about ten years ago, and
from that time until the present / have
occupied all my spare time IN swallowing
medicines. 1 received sample vial of
your rheumatic pellets from a friend on
Wednesday last, and to my establishment,
after taking several doses of four pellets
each, felt greatly benefited. Of late the
tIouble has been centered in the muscles
OF my arms and shoulders, and at times I
could scarcely wait upon customer. I
trust that may remain as l now am. for
the pain is disappearing by degrees and I
really feel so pleased that fear at times it
is all too good to be true.

Munyon Medical Company-Gentlemen
A trial of your homeopathic rheumatic
cure has convinced me that it possesses
unusual merit and will do that which you
claim for it. For seven years 1 have had
infammatory rheumatism, and princi-
pally in my hands, which rendered house
keeping and sewing an impossibility. The
fact is that on Wednesday my right hand
was almost useless and to-day sewed for
a short space of time. l have faith in the
remedy. MRS. J. NJ. MCMANUS,

DR.. James NJ. Munyon-Sir: After using
one bottle of your remedy and portion
of another, [ am convinced that it pos
sesses more than average merit. For years

have experienced little or no pain.

Professor James NJ. Munyon-Sir: While
| have not been afflicted with a malignant
form OF rheumatism, have, nevertheless,
experienced considerable pain and annoy
ance from what l first conceived to be a
found relief from time to time by the use
Of oils and niments, but almost in
variably the pain returned in short time
AS the trouble interfered in no way with
business, naturally gave myself no seri-
Gus concern over the matter. While pass
ing the Chronicle Office during the free
distribution of samples l took one through
curiosity and decided to give the remedy
trial. After short time the pains were
greatly relieved, and I SO informed many
of my friends. OF course, my case is not
a severe one, but relief from lesser ills is as
much blessing in proportion as freedom
from greater ones. JOHN PARROTT.

men: l sent my clerk for sample bottle
of your rheumatic cure on Monday last,
intending to ascertain its effects upon a
sort of rheumatic govt in my left foot,
from which L had suffered great deal.
After taking several doses of the pei
lets the pain left my foot and
located in the joint of nv right
wrist. The pain was intense, but in the
meantime the swelling in my foot had
almost entirely disappeared. On Wednes-
day my wrist commenced to improve to
such an extent that was able to handle
pen, and at present l am entirely free
from pain. Ny boot, which 1 had cut in
order to afford me relief, L have laid aside
for an ordinary gaiter, and inasmuch as l
took no other medicine 1 must attribute
the cure to your pellets, The action of
the medicine was swift and, from present
indications, entirely satisfactory in my
case. e. B. STONEHILL.

of course, absolute demonstration of an
elevation of the coast to that extent in
post-pliocene time. This itself might
however, be due to the general uplift which
has affected the entire coast. The general
uplift is but factor in the total effect of
the movements which have been active on
the San Francisco peninsula in post-plio-
Gene time. The occurrence of volume OF
pllocene strata over one mile thick, in
clined at high angles (up to IS deg.) is
absolute demonstration OF the very i'm
portant differential movements of local
character. The base of this great volume
Of strata exposed above sea at the same
Level as the summit of the series, with SO
small horizontal interval between sum-
nit and base, tells Us In language more
forclble than words, the measure of this
differential movement. The pre-pliocene
surface on which flourished the Monterey
pine has since the Inauguration of pliocene
sedlmentation been depressed over mile
beneath the waters of the Pacific, buried
beneath that thickness OF strata, and has
since in the most recent geological epoch
been elevated far above tide"
s. M. B. Haley, who is probably the
Oldest well-borer in the City, having prac-
tlced his business here and in the vicinity
Tor the past forty years, can speak from
interesting tales he relates OF his battles in
piercing the covering to this work of
nature. He has sunk his shafts, not only
all over the City and on the opposite side
OF the bay, but also in the very bay itself,
and the products of his borings would I'M
doubtedly make an interesting collection.
Mr.. Haley most firmly believes, and
gives his reasons therefor. that, previous
to the volcanic upheaval which left our
peninsula above the sea, there were three
great rivers flowing down from the sum-
mits of the Sierras and discharging their
contents into the ocean at points not far
distant from the present City of San Fran
cisco. To this convulsion, which formed
the glorious bay of San Francisco, he also
attributes the burial of those three great
rivers and the uplifting of Mount Diablo
with the sea shells at its apex.
Among other facts which Mr.. Haley
brings forward in proof of his belief that
the buried river-courses lie under the bay
is his statement that the neck of the PENN
sula is solid rock, with the inclination of
the strata in such direction and such an
angle as would naturally form an impas-
sable barrier to an underground stream.
Being OF an observant nature and having
closely watched all his borings, he believes
that he can trace at least one of the under
ground streams, flowing out of the south

persist In the use of powerful cathartics
and deadly drugs when Munyon' humane,
gentle and effective remedies are guaran-
teed to cure you.
In one short week Munyon's Remedies,
then almost unknown to the citizens of
San Francisco, have made so many won
derful cures that the medical profession
OF the city have become convinced of their
efficacy, and Munyon's representative at
the Mansfield is receiving communications
from them every day asking for the for
mula of Munyon's cures that they may
prescribe the same, having seen with their
own eyes so many remarkable cases where
the patient has been cured in five days,
after years of suffering under the care of
the best physicians in the country. 1t is
conceded by the most intelligent memb ers
of the profession that it is only question
OF time when Munyon's new method of
treating disease will be adopted by all
and why not? 1t has been proven by
careful investigation by such dailies as the
Boston Post, Philadelphia Times, New
York Press, Baltimore American, Wash
ington Post, Chicago Herald, Toledo Blade,
st. Paul Dispatch and Minneapolis Jour
nal and others of equal standing that Mum
yon's Remedies cure 80 per cent of all the
people who try them. There is not a
school of medicine in the world that dare
claim half of this.
II you are confronted with such evidence
as this, and insist upon galloping to the
grave by doctoring the old way, have
mercy on the little ones who are too young
to know right from wrong. Cure them
with Munyon's harmless remedies and let
them grow up with good healthy constitu-
tions, free from drug poisoning.

monials presented during the past four

Relieved After Ten Years of Torture.
Professor James M. Munyon-Dear Sir:
While residing in Australia several years
ago l contracted muscular rheumatism in
Its most painful form, and although | con-
sumed enough medicine to have DESTROYED
the stomach of an ordinary mortal, | re-
ceived little or no relief until Tuesday last.
1t was then that decided to use the con-
tents OF one of your sample bottles, which
my son obtained at the ''Chronicle" Office.
L am free to admit that the result aston
1shed me. For several days prior to this I
had been unable to use my arms, and the
right one in particular; but in less than
forty-elght hours [ experienced relief TO
such an extent that actually made myself
useful around my place of business. In
addition to the disappearance of all pain in
my arms, | found that the pellets had
acted benefcially on my kidneys, which
had been causing me considerable annoy
ance. l intend continuing the use of the
rheumatic cure. SALMON MATHEWS,

ARTISTIC SUMNER DRAPERlEs.
Dotted Swiss, CheesecIoth. japanese Grape
and GrasscIoth Are Suitable.

and GrASSClOEh Are suitable
Dotted swiss never loses its popularity
for window draperies, and there is moth
ing in curtain materials which one can
SO safely select if in doubt.
The valance is a form of window
drapery especially suited to such soft
material, and ma ~ handsome houses
have all the sash curtains made in this
way. It's depth depends upon the height
of the window, certain proportions need
ing to be observed in order to get a good
effect.
A new method of draping white cur
tains is odd and we'll suited to the win
dows OF summer parlor, as, being we'll
drawn apart, they admit plenty of light
and air. Each curtain is hung so that
it covers fully two-thirds of the window
that is, the two cross each other at
the top instead of meeting in the center
after the customary fashion. They are
then drawn back at the very top of the
upper sash and are secured with bands
and bows Of satin ribbon or with ruffied
bands of the goods as preferred. From
the point Of draping they hang perfectly
straight, and for this reason would look
well in high, double window.
Cheesecloth in its finer qualities is a
thoroughly artistic material for summer
draperies, especially if edged with ruff
fles of the same, and these are greatly
improved in appearance by being twist
ed in the hands before being sewed on
to give a soft effect.
The windows of a blue and white
room may be charmingly draped with
the Japanese Grape known as chijimi
cloth. It is very desirable for the pur-
pose, as it launders we'll and will bear
considerable sun without fading appre-
Gladly. A simple hem Or white ball and
tassel fringe may trim these at the
edges.
Madagascar grasscloth is very suit
able material for outside window dra-
peries or summer portieres, as the dust
does not cling to it, and it is also much
used for sofa pillows and chair cushions,
imparting a sense of GOODNESS which is
most agreeable in summer. The writer
Of the foregoing advises in The Ladies'
Home Journal that wherever it is posi-
BILE the heavy rugs aud draperies in use
in winter should be replaced by stuffs
and furnishings as distinctively sum
merlike as possible, not only comfort
but health itself being often dependent
upon such radical change.

the isle of Man. Professor Milne prob
ably knows more about earthquakes than
any other man. The study of seismic
disturbances is his fad, and he has de-
voted years to making interesting expert
ments and to inventing machinery for
the measurement of earthquakes. His
book on Earthquakes has had large
sale and is considered an authority on
the subject During his Investigations
in Japan he has had 900 observers scat
tered about the kingdom and the gov
eminent has aided him in various ways.
When. he went to the Land Of the Ris-
ing Sun, Professor Milne was looked up
on as a confirmed old bachelor, but d
pretty Japanese girl won his heart, and
they were married not long ago at the
British legation in Tokyo. Mrs Milne
is charming young woman and holds
a diploma for her skill in artistically
combining and arranging flowers.
There is one building at Tokyo uni
versity that is expressly devoted to fine
apparatus designed TO record the mo-
tions of earthquakes, and there are ex-
perimental structures erected for the
purpose of learning by actual expert
ence what sort of a building will best
withstand the seismic commissions. At
one time Professor Milne recommended
that buildings in the earthquake cen
tiers of Japan be built upon cannon balls
so arranged that they could move an
inch or SO, but the experiment was tried
and proved a failure.
Professor Milne has invented a ma
chine for indicating the slightest vibra-
ton of the earth. Each shock, he be-
Ieves, is preceded by premonitory tre-
mors which are registered by his ma
chine, but these tremors have little val
ne as indicating an approaching earth
quake, for the reason that he cannot tell
whether they presage shock or are
merely the effect of shocks in other
parts of the world. He has learned that
objects deeply and firmly ilnbedded in
the ground withstand shocks better than
those on the surface.
