tie interest among those who have seen
it, and the discovery may prove to be
an important one.
It consists Of vegetable fibre which
looks very much like horse hair, and
which is double the strength Of hemp or
strand OF it is IS strong as thread Of the
same size, and when Ave or six are
twisted 1t forms a cord which Is not easy
to break with the hands.
Mr.. Coddington has not made public
the name of the plant from which the
uriantly with but little irrigation, and
from the length of the fibre 1t must pro-
duce an unjointed stalk not less than four
feet in length.
MIR. Coddington found the fibre in
water, the "pethy" part Of 1t being de-
bunch of fibres, which are perfectly
smooth, somewhat elastic. and which
may be twisted Or doubled without being
brittle enough to break.
When the bunch ID rolled or twisted
with cord it Will sustain q surprisingly
large weight. and is probably twice as
strong as hemp cord of equal size.
which would at once suggest that it
might be used to advantage In the man
ufacture of rope.
OF course the question of its durability
would be something still to be tested,
but after the rotting process by wh1cn
the vegetable matter is removed. the
strength is uninjured and it would seem
to be lasting.
1t is suggested that 1t might be used
in the manufacture of bags, which would
be almost indestructible, while q dozen
methods of using 1t have already been
suggested. Mr.. Coddington is expert
menting with the fibre, and will deter
mine what uses 1t may be put to and
how his discovery may be turned to ad-
vantage.

LOS GATOS, Cal, May S, 1896.
DIR. A. T. SANDEN-Dear Sir: Your
Electric Belt. which I have now worn one
month is the most wonderful thing that has
ever been invented on account of it's hav-
ing so remarkably improved the deplora Bile
condition that was in before I wore it. At
that time DR.. r. A. Urquhart of Los Gatos
said that ! was threatened with softening
Of the brain. l could remember but very
little of anything, and could not converse
1ntell1gently. Now my memory and rea-
soning power are as good as ever. ! pre-
viously had pains which actually drove me
out of my mind. felt like a mad 0og
chained to, a post at times. they made me
suffer such intense misery. They would
twist my muscles in powerful spasms first
one part OF the body, again at another es-
pecially intense in my breast. This has all
disappeared now. I cannot describe to you
how happy feel that do not have to drag
my life, Further my sight was so poor for
years that I could hardly read with glass
es. l can now read very well without
them. My appetite is greatly improved,
and whereas before could walk but few
steps without being fatigued, can now
walk miles with pleasure: I swing dumb
bells and Indian clubs with ease. though
hardly lift one. In fact. it has saved my
life. as l felt before I used 1t that could
never recover, and all my friends thought
that had not long to live. can now jump
for joy and gratitude at the great change
1t has worked in my health and spirits. My
sexual powers first commenced to leave me

Almost Beyond Belief

Mr.. Morse has been jeweler in Los
Gatos for many years. and his condition
has been known to nearly every one in that
town. Those who meet him on the street
now hardly recognize in him the decrepit
old man who a month ago was believed to
be on the verge of the grave. It seems al
most impossible to believe. but when one
looks back ten years and considers the re-
markable progress which has been made In
Electricity in that time 1t is not strange
Electricity has accomplished wonders in
mechanics. and 1t is accomplishing greater
wonders in medical treatment But owing
to the prevalence. of qnackery. and the
many Cheap poorly made articles which
have been foisted on the suffering public,
many people are slow to acknowledge tho
curative value of DR.. Sandens Electric
Relt. Many cures almost as remarkable as
this one are shown In the little pamphlet
which DR.. Sanden sends free of charge. If
you send now you may save yourself much
suffering and expense for future doctor
bills. Address

dino between the ages of and II years.
In the report of 1895 it appeared there

girls, 1855.
The total number of children under

year ago it was 2470. a decrease of lis.
There is also quite a shake up in the.
relative positions of the various towns OF
the county. Chino has jumped to second
place, with an increase of 1S per cent.
The total given by its census is 565. On
tario comes into third place with 531.

But il is hard to deny and still again
deny oneself" says a querulous voice. OF
course ii isl So is 1t harder to fight than
to bend supinely to the blow, so it is har-
der to force our way against a torrent
than to yield to its onrush and perish so
1t is more toilsome to climb a steep ascent
than to glide down 1t a corpse on the
roaring crest of an avalanche. Yet who
that claims hnship to manhood would
cease struggling in these physical direc-
tons, so long as a spark of life remain
ed. The feeble pen that is followed by so
many eyes, halts and hesitates here, and
questions whether this may not all be too
serious and too sermonic for a newspaper
column. The answer comes: mo! for
the press is called to be a power" And
the negative is confirmed by a growing
sound that smites the psychic ear, muir
muir that swells into an infinite agnoy of
vain regret; Ii is the voice of all, as one,
whose brightest prospects have vanished,
whose powers for good have been over
come by yielding to unholy ambition, to
the mere making of wealth, to the killing
of time, to the lowering of the human
standard till 1t became parody and carl
cature of all that is disgusting in the ami
NAL. These are they whose bodies con-
quered their souls and permitted no deeds
OF value to our race. By their vain
breathings, by their chained and manacled
DodieS, by their shrieVeHed souls, by their
animalism, the sign is here erected: The
secret of power is self-conquest"
All sincere battling with self is in some
degree self-conquest. The victory of one
day renders more sure the basis of opera
tons for the next So vast becomes the
growing power over self, that before it the
trend of heredity goes down defeated. I'M
til out of the filth comes forth a creature
as pure as the water lily. If by battling
you gain the mastery of your instincts
you need no longer yearn for power. You
Will have 1t. You need not blazon it from
the housetops, for those who meet you
Will know you have it. 1t will surround
you, unconsciously on your part, with a
subtle emanation that will help or rebuke
those who enter its charmed circle Thus
from the defeat to our highest that is
threatened by our lowest, you will have
wrested victory; and will take your place
among those purified and powerful ones
that glorify our humanity
