A New violet-And a Big One.

From the San Francisco Examiner.l
 The little flower which has evoked the poetic tributes of so many fine minds, and a chorus of admiration from pass ersIby, has never attained such beauty as it now possesses in it's latest and most perfect development, the new sin gle violet which has been named the "California."
 The purity of the color, the delicacy of the fragrance, the grace of form, and the unusual size of the "Califor- mia" place it easily in the lead of all other flowers of it's species, and with many 1t will rank as the most beauti- ful of all flowers.
 This new violet, for such 1t really is, must rank with the botanical achieve ments of the century, even though, like many other floral successes, it's history is little vague, and its existence seems to some extent to be due to chance ex- pertinent.
 Professor Emory D. Smith has the credit of introducing the California vio- let, and with him Joseph Carbone, as the cultivator of the new flower must share the honors. The former gentle man, in speaking of the flower, says;
 Tt has been in course of propaga- tion for three years, and has now at tained It's most perfect form, color, fra grance and size. It is vigorous plant, absolutely free from disease of any kind, and so unlike many other violets. It's flowers are of immense size, suf1- ciently large to more than cover a sil- yer dollar Its color is a clear violet purple and does not fade. The fra grance Is intense, and the stems vary in length from ten to fourteen inches"

PALE, THIN AND EMACIATED
 PEOPLE.

The country is full of them. They do not know what it is to feel well like other folks. Medicines of all kinds have been tried without goodresults. Cod Liver Oil and the prepa- rations of Malt have all failed. What is the reason ? These emaciated people cannot digest starchy foods. The fat of the body is produced with bread, potatoes. and other starchy food. If they will eat food that is artihcially digested they will grow fat, strong, plump and robust. They will com mence gaining flesh at once. This Flesh Forming Food is called PAsKoLA. You can buy it at any drug store. Send your name to The Pre-Digested Food Co.,, 30 Reade st., New York, and get their interesting pamphlet.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER. Saturday, February 3, being ground hog day, 1t is to be hoped the sun will not shine then, enabling it to see itself or rather it's shadow, thereby giving as- surance of six weeks of continued cold weather; but let us look forward to a cloudy day and warm and early spring which is said to surely follow.
