Isn't it a pity that so many women go
through life as nervous, fretful invalids, al
ways in sick bed or on the verge of it.
They are to be sincerely pitied for the
great majority have in them the making of
healthy, amiable, capable wives and moth
ers. These cases become sadder still when
it is realized that the sufferings they endure
are unnecessary. Any woman can be healthy
and amiable and helpful if She will take care
of the health of those delicate organs that
are essentially feminine.
The greatest known medicine for women
is DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug firm
of Jones & Son, Cowden, Ill, in speak
ink of DR.. Kings New Discovery says
that last winter his wife was attacked
with la grippe, and her case grew so
serious that physicians at Cowden
and Pena could do nothing for her. 1t
seemed to develop into Hasty Con-
sumption. Having DR.. Kings New
Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took a bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get better
from first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well. DR..

Kimball Company. The upper story of
the building is fitted up for lodging pur-
poses and for Offices, while the company
occupies nearly the entire lower floor ana
large cellar. 1t has in addition large
warehouse in which it keeps the heavier
portion of its goods and wares. Major e.
q. kimball, the president of the com pany,
and D. w. Gedney, its secretary, are men
known far and wide for their business
ability and integrity, They do not only q
large retail business, but are wholesalers
and jobbers of no mean note, and every
boat brings to them large consign-
ments of goods in car lots. There you
can buy anything from a sewing needle,
q bit of cheese or yard OF calico, to a
com bined harvester or a complete stock
of general merchandise for q country
store. They handle many thousands of
dollars worth of dried fruit, nuts and
raisins every year.
Immediately south of the Cone & Kim

would be an ornament to town of 10000
people. On its site formerly stood a
wel-known hosiery of The same
name. but on fatal night in 1894 it fell q
victim to the dreaded enemy-fire. On
the ruins of the old building was erected
the present structure, and on January 1,
1895, S. E. Murphy opened it to the pub
lie. While the old building was roomy
and pleasing to the eye. its memory is
now nightmare compared to the present
building. Broad and winding stairs lead
to the second and third stories, where
comfortable rooms are found, equipped
with all the latest Improvements to make
life in hotel more pleasant than in a
private home. And for fear some one
will imagine that home life is to be pre-
ferred, Mr.. Murphy keeps at command

the Sacramento River, is situated the
famous Stanford vineyard and winery,
where thousands of gallons of the purest
of distilled and fermented juices from the
grape are each year placed on the market.
In that immediate vicinity are orchards
from which more than 100 carloads of
dried peaches are shipped every year, be-
sides many hundreds in the fresh state.
Those same orchards bring thousands of
Gollars to their owners as returns for the
apricots, prunes, apples, pears, nectarines
and other fruits which they yield. But
not that immediate portion OF the county
alone is adapted to fruit. On The con-
trary, from the foothills on the west. both
in the northern and southern portions OF
the county, 10 the foothills In the eastern
portion, are found many profitable or
chards, which are successfully farmed by
their owners, the natural result oil winch

Several of these orchards contain from
100 to 300 acres each, while the little tracts
devoted to horticulture, uprising from
five to ten acres each, mum Der hundreds.
And in their midst is the only colony tract
that has done anything in the way OF gen.

disc. Deer are found in plenty, and some
bear are in the Coast Range to tempt the
hunter, while the hills and valleys are full
OF quail, and the streams are well stocked
with fish. Through the efforts of Attorney
John ]. Wells, Antelope Creek (Which had
been partly tished out) was restocked with
trout in 1895 and Battle Creek in 1896.
Many parts of Battle Creek, however,
needed nothing more to make 1t one OF
the best trout streams in the State. At
its mouth is situated large salmon hatch
cry, erected by the State in 1895. anu also
the largest hatchery in the world, erected
by the United States Government in 1896
at which nearly 100000 eggs were taken
the first season.
Tho county-seat of Tehama County is
the town of Red Bluff, situated on the
west bank of the Sacramento River, q cool
and placid stream. In its waters abound
fish of many varieties and in great guam
titles, and as means OF transportation it

lating freight rates than ha. ever been any

make weekly trips from Sacramento to
this point, and they come well laden not
only with goods for Red Bluff merchants,
but with good-siZed cargoes consign d to
merchants in the northeastern portion of

this freight formerly went to Kedding by
rail, but after the opening of the river to

Red Bluff became the great entrerot of
the north. The Supervisors wisely under
took the Improvement of the roads from
Red Bluff to the Shasta County line, and
now the heaviest of loads can be
transported over them with ease. This
makes the trip from the country to the
northeast little longer than it is to Red
ding, but the advantage Red Bluff has in
the matter of frei ght rates more than over
comes the difference in time required for
the big teams to make round trip.

of her wealthiest citizens, Hon. ]. s. Gone,
and the management OF his business was
left to his eldest child and only son,
Douglas s. Cone. He took hold of the
business right where his father left off
and managed it with such success and
with so much ability as to astonlsh all
during the administration OF the estate.
When the property was distributed to the
heirs the home ranch, situated about four
miles southeast of Red Bluff, fell as a part
OF his share to him. Included thereon are
several of the most profitable orchards in
the county, one pear orchard alone pro-
ducing fifty carloads in a single season.
He is one of the largest producers of wool
in the county. his focks ranging in the
hills east of the homo place. and he
naturally takes an active interest in every
thing done to advance the sheep interest,
his clip being of the finest. Besides look
ing after every detail Of his sheep inter-
ests, he gives careful attention to his
farming operations; has several thousand
acres in grain and hundreds of acres of
alfalfa, which he converts into beef. He
is an open-handed, generous young man,
devoted to all outside sports, and great
favorite in society. A brilliant future is
predicted for him. He is also a large
stockholder in the Cone & Kim ball Com
pany, the Bank of Tehama County and ia
the Red B uff Electric Light Com pany.
The electric light company, of which
w. Runyon is president, receives its
power from the waters Of Antelope Creek,
on the lands OF Mr.. Gone. Wires run from
there to Red Bluff and the town is fav-
ored with the best and most steady of
electric lights at nominal cost All of the
business houses are lit with either arc or
incandescent lights and the streets are
dotted with arcs OF 1200-candle power
all from the same source. The manager,
John Clements, is an active worker,
