-: GETTING SHY OF EUROPE.
Eastern Tourists Coming to Califor-
 :... mia for Their Summers :.

:: From the nature of the. correspondence: recently received::by: the: manager of the
 State Board ::of Trade. J.: A. Filcher -fnfers that this year: there: will be a very large number of. tourists visit this coast. Dozens of letters are: being received every: day asking for information concerning the various watering places. of the State, cost of living at the simmer resorts and what
 constitute the attractions. Mr.:- Filcher infers:: from this that many of the. people of the East who are accustomed to spend
 their summers, :and: incidentally their
 dollars, in Europe, are turning their at tention to the West for: recreation, this being caused by fhe*fears that their pleas
 ure may be #marred by: the existing war: and the possibility: of it's spreading. .:- :- : :: Not:a few. of:these correspondents: have already intfmated that: fear of: inter national troubles has. induced: them to turn their attention. to their own country for recreation and pleasure. To all of. these MT Pitcher replies that tourists need. not. fear having time hang heavily upon their hands for want of amusement and instruction. From what can. be learned from other sources the propr1e- tors of: the principal pleasure resorts of: the State are: making arrangements for: a larger patronage this year than form erly, showing that the war scare Is driving many of the well-to-do class of the East. to this. coast for their: summer outing.

Resisting An Attack!
WHAT TT MEANS TO FIGHT THE. ENEMY NOWADAYS.
MODERN SCIENTIFIC METHODS.

: If we are involved in a war with
 Spain.or a. foreion nation in the inn
 mediate future, the best authorities believe. that. the battles will be fought at long range whether on sea or.iand. Boarding the. enemies ships and the old Nelson business of muzzle to mug -zle is done away with. The modern science of war is altogether different from. the .old7fashioned methods. Hand to+hand encounter with the. cutlass or the: ba.yonet was the old way. Now the guns and mortars of our batteries on land and sea will destroy an enemy two miles or; seven miles distant. A paral- Tel to these Modern methods in the sci ence of war is the modern methods of medical scienc :. In the good old days the doctor: used lancet on a man at the least provecation- blood letting was the: order of the day-when a persons blood was dfsordered. or when it was desired .to:fortify him against the at tack of any fever or disease.

FOOD COFFEE.
NOT FOR FRIENDS
Are We to Eat What We Don't .'-'@ Want.

.'.''@ Want.
 A famous physician, in a late article on the subject of health, speaking par ticulariy of the value of good diges- ton, says:
 Don't eat anything .oC don't want, even to please your friends. Don't be afraid of microbes; they will not hurt you.
 A healthy condition of the stomach > makes a healthy skin and a good com plexion.
 "Learn and practice good habits; they. are easy and most pleasant. A diet with an eye to acquiring : flesh should consist of liquids-milk, water, but not coffee or tea; no hot breads, plenty of butter and cheese. :: Above all, eat slowly and never ex- >ercise until half an hour after meals"
 Another says: "I have known weak eyes cured by leaving off coffee, and hundreds of other. c..ses of nervous pepsia, liver and heart trouble, and bowel complications directly relieved by the abandonment of coffee and the use of PoStum Food Coffee
 The alkaloids of coffee are a serious poison to many people, and when one flnds disease coming on, it is high time to stop the cause and take some natural food like Postum Food Coffee, which rebulds the broken down nerve centers all: over the human Lody. Ten days trial will prove the facts and fur uish great relief to the sufferer.

MOTHERS FRIEND

may have on this subject, the Constitu-
ton is the supreme law and must be
obeyed. The poll tax, Of course varies
in the different counties, but l am in
formed that it has been the custom in
some places to take % per cent, of 50,
or 30 cents. without regard to what the
poll actually is, or III other words, where
the poll is only $3.50, 80 cents Of this
has been taken from the school fund,
where there should have been taken only
% per cent, or one-fourth of $3.50, or
Is cents.
''The point / wish to emphasize is
this, that no matter what the poll tax
of your county may or may not be. %
per cent of whatever it is belongs to
the school fund 1t is very strange that
the school fund seems TO be so often mis-
used, and so little concern taken for this
fund in comparison with other public
funds. / have no objection to the county
commissioners caring for the poor, hut
let them only take D per cent. Of the
poll tax as the Constitution directs for
this purpose. | believe that we would
have fewer people in our county homes
if we had more intelligence, so one way
for the commissioners to lessen the pub
lie burden Of the poor is to increase the
intelligence of their people.
Il beg You to look into this matter in
your county and see that the school fund
has its legal portion of the poll tax, rs
well as the other taxes"
