Mind Reading

The really extraordinary performances
Of mind readers of celebrity astound al
who witness them. Scientists cannot ex.
plain them; the experts themselves are
unable to say by what mental process they
arrive at conclusions and discover locations
almost invariably correct. Hamlet ex-
claims, There are more things in heaven
and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of In
thy philosophy" The wonderful feats
of the mind reader are strongly corrobora
tive of this. But the reason of the bene-
icent effects of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers in cases OF dyspepsia, malaria, rheu-
matism, biliousness, nervousness and kid
uey and bladder complaint, marvellous as
they are, does not require and will not
provoke investigation. We know that the
medicine does effect thorough cures in OBJ.
stinate cases, that it does prevent the dis
cases to which it is adapted Consequently
able and eminent men endorse 1t. USED
with persistency 1t will re-establish health

NOW CLAIMS FOURTH PLACE IN
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Orange Shipments Are Slow and the
Prices Are Not Very
Satisfactory

RIVERSIDE, June 1.-THE Pacific Mu-
tual Life Insurance company has decided to
j. +. Mouiton and H. Il. Praed seventy
acres in the Auburndale colony lands near
Corona. 1t is understood to be the intention
of the purchasers of the tract to improve

There is opposition to the petition ask
ing that billiard halls be closed on Sunday.
The number of children in the city be-
tween the ages of and II years is 1922 as
against 164O last year, difference of 1872,
or the equivalent of 1000 increase in popula-
ton. The figures indicate the population of
the city to be $3.50, thus placing the city in
the fourth place in the list of Southern Cali
fornla cities in point of population. The Fist
now stands as follows: Los Angeles. San
Diego, Pasadena and Riverside, with San
Bernardino occupying fifth position In the
line.
George Frost has sold to II. A. Westbrook
63-foot lot on Main street upon which the
purchaser is to erect a business block.

RAMBLES AMONG THE ALPS
Entertaining Lecture by DR.. Wendte
at Unity Church

The last of series Of three lectures on
travel in foreign countries by Rev. DR..
Wendte was given last evening in Unity
church to large and appreciative audi
ence. "Rambles Among the Alps" was the
subject, illustrated with a set Of fine stere-
opticon views.
In his interesting talk, DR.. Wendte took
his hearers with him to the quaint Swiss
villages and towns, through wild mountain
georges, over the wonderful roads through
the Alps, by the clear lakes and rushing
rivers, to the hospices kept by the faithful
monks, up to the Matterhorn with its
wastes of snow and glaciers.
The description of the country was in
terspersed with the history Of that sturdy
little republic, hundreds of years old, and
its honest, free, self-respecting people.
Types of the handsome peasant girls were
represented on the canvas, while the
speaker gave graphic sketches of the man
ners and customs of the people. Views
were given Of the st. Gothard tunnel, which
is eighteen miles long and cost fifty mil
lions of dollars to construct, and the rail-
way through the mountains suspended like
Mahomet's coffin, midway between earth
and heaven. The lecture was instructive
and interesting throughout.
