AS in the case of Fire Chief Runge, the
beginning of poor health is very apt to rob
one of the will power to start Immediately
about getting out of danger. 1t is this in
ertia of poor health that makes an ordj-
nary rundown" bodily condition so dam
geroIs, and so likely to GO on to something
worse. Every day it is clearly shown that
it won't do to live tired-out, and on the
very verge of breaking down. The languor
and the lack of strength are sure to in
crease.
Now is the time to throw off disease. As
the new year begins there are fewest him
ORANGES to getting back strength and sturdy
health. The bracing weather arouses a
longing for health. Paine's celery COM

toward driving out disease and establishing

OF Interest to rIoney Lenders

Judge York yesterday handed down an
opinion in the case of j. Q. Hutton VS.. John
P. Early and c. II. Bradley. containing sew
eral points of interest to indorsers of prom
issory notes. Following is the opinion:
These defendants, with one Montague,
signed their names on the back of prom
issory note at the time of the making
thereof and before delivery. The note pro-
vided for the payment of an attorneys fee
in case of suit for collection, and hence
was not negotiable. adams VS.. Seaman,
so California, 636.)
The note not being negotiable, these de-
PENDANTS and Montague became guaran-
tors, and not indorsers or suretes. First
National Bank VS.. Babcock, "a California,
1O3.)
A guarantor does not become a party to
a note, but makes a new contract. In the
case of a promissory note his contract is
that the principal will pay the note when it
becomes due. In other words, the guaran-
tor promises to answer for the PRINCIPALS
debt, default or miscarriage. (Sec. 2737,
G. C)
After the delivery of the note the payee,
the plaintiff herein, released Montague
from the obligation of guaranty.
Sec. 1543, Civil Code, provides that "a
release of one of two or more joint debtors
does not extinguish the obligations of any
of the others, unless they are mere guaran-
tors; nor does it affect their right TO con-
tribute from him." The exception of guar
antors from this rule leaves the decisions
of the supreme court of this state prior to
the codes on the construction of contracts
of guaranty applicable to this case.
If the contract of guaranty was joint,
and not joint and several, then the release
of Montague released these defendants, his
coguarantors, and the plaintiff has no
cause of action. 1t is not shown that any
benefit accrued TO the guarantors, and
hence Sec. 1869, Civil Code, has no ap-
pIication.
The contract of guaranty being dis
tinct contract in itself, and the obligation
having been imposed upon several persons
who received no benefit for entering into
the obligation, the contract was joint, and
not a several contract. Secs. 1880, 1881 :,
Civil Code.
1t follows that the release of Montague
released his coguarantors, and hence
plaintiff cannot recover on the facts al
legged in his complaint.
1t is therefore ordered that defendants
demurrer to plaintiff g complaint be and
the same is hereby sustained.
