Wrs. BIS Unpleasant
M Shopping Experience.

A lady whom we will call Mrs B. had an
perience last week that she will not soon forget.
Early IN the week she noticed in one OF the
show windows of our city article marked SIPS.
Several days later she visited the place in question
intending to buy the article, but was told that it
had been sold
That same day but later, Mrs. b. saw the ar
hcle elsewhere and marked only 75c. Congratu-
lating herself on not only getting what she want
ed but at such reduction in price, she quickly
concluded the purchase and was very much pleased
until Saturday last, Then it was that she visited
Our store and saw the identical article that had
been SIPS and 75c elsewhere, marked 45c!
The item is kept in the Furniture Department
and anyone who is interested may see it there.
If more people knew of our uniformity low
prices there would be fewer who would take the
chances of buying elsewhere and paying more.

A Republican is the very antipode or
an imperialist. How can a man who
believes in a republio be- an imperiaiist2
Very true, the term imperialist is an
uffense when applied to those who favor
the uplifting, broadening and bettering
of the power and beneficence of the
American Nation. 1t is pity that
stigma should ever be resorted TO in
any political contention. But as the
obstructionists and fearful timid'
people have seen fit to stigmatize
those who favor progress, breadth and
commanding influence for their nation,
we suppose nothing can be done about
it but to retort in kind. Let US see
what would be q good name for the
n-progressionists? Mugwump Is an
-cient; obstructionists is not original.
How would towards do? True. 1t is
vulgar, but so is the application OF the
term "imperialist" to men who are
as broad, free, American and repub-
lican as, any on earth.

HOME INTEREST.
Placer Herald: If people of a party
developed State or county would show
as much interest in considering means
for developing their resources as they
do in politics or prize fight. how
much better with them would it be.
Suppose, for instance, that an agitation
could be started in California for the
development of its industries and the
promotion of desirable immigration
equal to the interest taken in the late
political campaign, what wide attention
it would attract? If State meetings or
town meetings were held as they are
during political times, and addressed
by our ablest and most enterprising
men on the subject of how to promote
our interests, we would attract the at
tention of the civilized world; such
enthusiasm would be infectious and al
Turing, and thousands would flock to
our State to learn what the excitement
was all about. It is a little singular,
when we think of it, that people will
spend SO much money and effort in the
promotion of their political ideas and,
ing indifference to subjects that are.
If possible, more vital to their inter-
ests.

TAKING LIFE MASKS.
1t is a Tedious Operation, Espe-
cfally for the Subject.

One often observes when reading of
the demise Of celebrity that a mask
was taken by Mr.. So-and SO, the cele-
brated sculptor, soon after the death,
says the Strand" but really very few
people know how this is carried out.
They might have some idea that
plaster of paris is put over the dead
mans face, but there the idea ends.
A mask from life is taken almost
precisely in the same way as after
death, save that much greater care
has to be used, as the subjects life
hangs on a very thin thread, or, to be
more precise, two small quilts. 1t re-
quires great deal of nerve and pa
tience to undergo, the sensation being
most disagreeable. When a mask from
life is about to be secured the subject
reclines on a long table and towels
are placed around his neck and fore
head to prevent the plaster going
where not intended. The face is
slightly creased, but not enough to fill
the pores of the skin. Care has to be
especially taken with the eyelashes, as
otherwise in the subsequent operations
these are likely to be pulled off, which
would not be exactly pleasant
nostril to allow the subject to breathe
through, and cotton wool lightly
pressed around the base to keep tha
liquid plaster from intruding.
A pair of scissors is always kept
handy, SO as to be able to cut off the
tops Of the quilts should by any chance
the plaster splash up and cover them.
All being ready, a few cheering words
are spoken to the unhappy victim and
the plaster is mixed. This is carefully
poured or sprinkled over the features.
The plaster, through being mixed
with warm water, quickly hardens,
and in the course of about five min
utes the mold is strong enough to be
taken off. It has to be carefully done,
as the subject is generally very eager
to get a mouthful of fresh air once
again A slight tap with the hand
is given to the two side pieces, which
relieves the joints made by the thread.
The top or central piece is then
lifted up and pulled slightly downward,
SO as to withdraw the quills from the
nose as they come out with the mold.
The. Sides are then taken off. Probably
some of the hair may hold to the mold,
but with a little coaxing, or by the
insertion Of the scissors, it can soon
be removed
Care must be used to get the ears,
but without breaking either the SUBJ
ject or the mold. The ears are only
taken on the front sides, cotton wool
being placed at the back to prevent
the plaster going around. When re-
moved the three pieces are put to-
gether and plaster placed on the ex-
terror to hold and strengthen them.

Mileage books will be issued in the name
of the head of family or firm, and will be
available for the use of any member OF such
family or for any traveller for firm, pro-
vided the name Of such member or traveller
is written in the book by the agent selling
it. in the place designated. They will be
bonored for transportation by the conduct
ors of all trains, including limited trains, but
only to the end Of the run of each conductor
If the holder of such ticket desires to ride
beyond the run of a conductor, or on night
