A we'll selected text is half of the SER
mon. Given good text and a preacher
who is in earnest, and the result is sure
TO be good. The text of this article is
plain simple statement that proves itself
in the readers own mind without argu-
ment The text is Good health is bet
ter than great riches.
Without health nothing really matters
very much. A hacking cough takes all
the beauty out of landscape or sunset.
Erysipelas or eczema will spoil the enjoy
ment of sprightly conversation, OF beau
tiful concert, of a wonderful painting.
The biggest bank account in the world
won't paw a man for his health, but
very small amount of money will make
him healthy and keep him healthy.
Most all bodily troubles start in the
digestive or respiratory organs. 1t is
here that improper living first makes an
opening for disease. The development
differs as constitutions and temperaments
differ. The causes are almost identical.
To get at the root of the matter is simple
enough if you start right
DR.. Plerce's Golden Medical Discovery
is a medicine for the whole body. 1t
works through the digestive organs on
all the others.
1t cures the first thing it comes to and
after that, the next. 1t puts health in
place of disease in the stomach, and from
the vantage ground thus gained, it
reaches every fiber of the body and drives
disease before it = indigestion, liver
troubles, kidney complaint, biliousness,
skin and scalp diseases salt-rheum, letter,
eczema, and all the troubles caused by
impure blood.

business carried on on that basis, with
out carrying the matter into court, as
State officers frequently do. Under this
opinion, which 1 have been expecting
and am prepared to accept, the State
of California in the matter of printing
alone will save upward of $3.50, 600 The
work heretofore done by the State
Printer-such as blanks, reports, cir
culars, headings of books and the like
can be gotten out by the mimeograph.
the typewriter, the multiplex COPPER or
in the good old-fashioned way-with
pen and ink.
This may inconvenience some of the
clerical force employed by the State,
by requiring them to labor a few more
hours per week, but the farmers, mer-
chants, property owners and the tax
payers of the State will be able to grin
and bear it, in view of the saving of a
quarter of a million of their good dol
lars.
What can be done in this line was
shown by the last report from San
Quentin which was made by the multi
pick COPPER 1t may be that some of
the printing establishments of the
State will deem it proper to get up
and carry in stock such forms as are
readily salable and frequently used,
and dispose of them to the officers of
the State as stationery or blanks Such
purchases can no more be objected to
than the purchase by the Attorney
General or the State Librarian of books
and other printed matter gotten out
by private establishments
THE State service will in no wise
be impaired and the inconvenience and
extra work required of State employees
will be amply compensated for by the
enormous saving which will result to
the people. If the very expensive re-
ports of State officers heretofore pub
lishd should be deemed necessary the
next Legislature may make provision
for them

The Ward & VokeS troupe had large
audience at the Metropolitan Theater
last night. The farce in which these two
eccentric comedians appear is dubbed
"A Run on the Bank" 1t might just as
well be called anything else, for the
thing has neither body, head nor tail;
it has not plot, no continuity no motive,
no purpose, except to enable a lot of
very clever people to make people laugh
at buffoonery and applaud some capital
dancing and exceedingly good acrobatic
work. The company is a large one, in
Guiding nine comedy women, among
whom are two very fine and dashing
dancers. Petite Eleanor and Lucy DAILY.
The latter is a clever singing soubrette
likewise. Ward and Vokes. as a brace
of tramps, are grotesque and in many re-
spects original in their acts and create
any amount of fun. There are others in
the company equally as successful as
merry fellows, notably Charles Guyer,
one of the finest tumblers and somer-
sault throwers, by the way, ever seen
here; Charles A. Mason in Dutch dia-
lect, Joe Kelley in eccentric low comedy
and character acting, Miss Learock as a
garet Vokes as a tough girl" The sup
port of these leaders is about the liveliest
and merriest lot of dancers and singers
that we have had here in farce comedy
in a long time. Though some of the
jokes are ancient, on the whole there is
notable originality. The audience
though utterly unable to understand
what it was about, laughed at and ap-
plauded the performance to the echo,
and some of the grotesque acts were en-
cored thrice. AS a means whereby
laughter because of its absolute absurd
ity, and because of its rafting, lively,
wide awake action and it's very superior
dancing and acrobatic features, "A Run
on the Bank is as mirth provoking an
oddly as one could wish to see. The

Japanese Commercial Morality Said to BE

It has long been known to those who
had dealing with the japanese that
commercial morality in Japan stands
almost on the lowest plane possible to a
civilized people With few exceptions

bic and high minded in all other matters
are not to be trusted in business transac-
ton. IN Japan the man who fails to
take advantage OF his neighbor in q bar
gain is looked upon as a 'ool The ex-
PLANTATION of this state of things given
by Robert Young, who edits a Kobe pa
per, is that merchants in Japan have
hitherto occupied the lowest rung on the
social ladder, being deemed inferior to
the tillers Of the soil and but little above
the pariah class. Up TO a comparatively
recent period trader was but another
name for triclyster and the pursuit Of
commerce was held to argue a lack of
integrity.
With changed commercial conditions
this low standard seems 60 have re-
mained unaltered, so that the japanese
trador is always thinking how he can
