Coffee Drinking and Health.

Modern science is directing its
searchlight into many dark places
and dispelling errors which held our
forefathers IN tbrall. One by one
these popular Misrepresentation
wither up beneath the rays Of medi-
cal enlightenment and scientific pro-
gress, and in their place come wider
wisdom and increased knowledge of
the good things that have so liberal
ly been bestowed for our use and
benefit.
Take, for example, coffee, one of
Natures kindliest gifts to man, but
which has been misunderstood and
maligued by smatterers in science,
who entirely overlooked it's rare
therapeutic value and the conse-
quent physiological benefits follow
ing its use. Contrary to the mis-
taken notions too frequently ex-
pressed by the unknowing and
copied into newspapers, without re-
gard to their trustworthiness, it is a
fact, based upon scientific demon
stration, that good coffee possesses
great value as nutriment, in addi-
ton to its mildly stimulating quail
ties, which materially assist diges-
ton.
The writer believes that the best
coffee, for illustration, Banquet"
Java Coffee, has food value second
to no other single article in the
menu, and this view is supported by
the testimony of representative
medical men, to whom inquiries were
put. Whilst coffee is not only a
welcome but likewise beneficial
addition to the household bill OF
fare, it should be borne in mind that
there is wide variance iu quality in
the different brands offered in the
market Sometimes careless roast
ing, or, failure to properly prepare
the berry, OF inattention to the re-
quirements of a perfectly roasted
coffee, result in a product whose
value is doubtful, hence the maxim,
"the best only is good enough"
should be rigidly applied by every
prudent purchaser. For instance.
no mistake can be made in selecting
best Java or Hawaiian coffee, as it
is always OF uniform quality, super
lative flavor, and, whilst full of
strength, is yet so intelligently
blended that its delicacy renders it
extremely palatable to the most
delicate appetite or most fastidious
taste.
AS to the benefits to be derived
from the use of coffee: First, that
which renders meal appetizing and
inviting has a tendency to make it
more digestible. Secondly, coffee
gently stimulates the salivary glands
aud acts bene6cially upon the tro-
phic nerves, in fact, assists material
! ly in the functions OF digestion and
assimilation. Again, it has an anti
malarial tendency, and may be used
to rare advantages in miasmatic con-
ditions, and will frequently prevent
zymotic diseases characterized by
chills, ague or slow fever.
1t will thus be seen that instead
Of being harmful, good coffee is po-
sitively benefit, and that in spite
of the dictum of the unlearned that
coffee is "trying to the nerves." it
tones up the nervous system and is
in every sense OF the word true
food-rich in nutrition and pro-
ductive of bodily vigor.-The Plan
terS' Monthly.

This harbor is now an assured fact, and
If you are wise you will lose no time in

a few short months until ships from all

port of San Pedro, and to a man of
money and business discernment we can
present a proposition for making more
money that has no equal in the history
of this county.
We have 100 acres of land fronting on
the bay between Wilmington and San
Pedro, and within half mile of the
town of San Pedro. that will in the near
future command a fabulous price; almost
mile of water frontage, which alone will
soon be worth a fortune. There is not
an acre of land between Los Angeles and
the coast today that is not worth 500
an acre. yet lying within a stones throw
of the future harbor of Southern Califor-
mia you can, for a short time, buy this
acreage for less than half it's price. To a
party with means, who desires some
thing with absolute merit in it, and
which will grow more valuable every day
