Don't Go Into Particulars.

When you meet politician
OF a strictly business kind,
Who at last has climbed the ladder
And left all his past behind.
You must compliment him shrewdly
II you don't want any row.
You can say you're glad he got there.
But you needn't mention how
You can speak with admiration A
OF the place he's risen to 81
And talk about the future "
And the things that he will do. = 70
But brevity is safer,
Simply make your little bow
And say you're glad he got there,
And you needn't mention how.

Automatic baggage smasber.


When we see heavy trunks by the
truck load brought up to the side doors
of baggage cars and the hurried work
of transferring them begun we have
often wondered. says the Scientific
American, why practical mechanical
devices had not been invented to facil-
itate this transfer. Baggagemen in
this country have attained an unenvi-
able reputation as destroyers of
trunks, but after all it may be ques-
toned II they are so much to blame.
when we consider the enormous
weight and size of some trunks of the
so-called Saratoga" order. The de-
vice which we illustrate is of consid-
cradle general interest, and would GER
tainly do away with the evils of bag
gage smashing, and. of course, heavy
baggage could be handled much more
rapidly by means of this device than
by hand. The device consists of a
hoist which can be thrown into action
from the door of the baggage car. 1t
consists of hoist operated by COM
pressed air which is drawn from the
train line to a special reservoir. and is
handled by train baggagemen by
means of suitable cocks on the inside
of the car. 1t has a lifting capacity of
500 pounds, and is operated with an
air pressure of 10 pounds to the square
inch. Our engraving represents a 21s-
pound trunk being raised by it. An
auxiliary spring scale device is locat-
ed at about the center of the vertical
length of the baggage support. This

New Sanitary Tooth Brush.

Doctors have long told US that the
prevailing way of brushing the teeth
is insufficient, inasmuch as in the pas
sage of the bristles across the teeth
there is no opportunity afforded for
the dislodgment of the particles held
between them. An up and down mo-
ton has been recommended, but the
old way seemed to be such a natural
one that it was found difficult to de-
part from it, and the reform method
has met with but faint Endorsement. A
sanitary toothbrush that will cleanse
the molars in scientific way has been
conceived and recently patented in this
country by Adrian NJ. w. Lag of
Philipsburg. West Indies. The handle
comprises casing, which accommo-
dates a spirally grooved shaft remova-
bly, held in the end of said casing. A
hollow handle fitting over these
grooves affords means for revolving
the brush as it is held over the teeth.
The action of this implement is much
the same as the automatic screwdriv-
ers now so generally in use, in which a

CALIFORNIA FOR HEALTH.
Mild Climate, Rare Medicinal
Springs and Charming Scenery.

There are many conditions of the
body in which a change of environ
ment is far more valuable as rene
dial agent than all the medicine that
can be prescribed.
California is peculiarly fitted to give
all that nature can give in this direc-
ton. To the newcomer the environ
ment is so strange and so striking that
it claims the undivided attention.
Everywhere and all the time there is
something strange or interesting to
see.
OF climatic conditions the invalid
has a wide range from which to
choose: In elevation, from about 300
feet below sea level to 5000 or 1000
above; in humidity, from the moist sea
breezes of the coast TO the dry, invig-
Grating air of the inland mountain
ranges; in temperature, from the al
most perpetual summer of the southern
part of the state to the more severe,
though not unpleasant, climate of the
upper Sierras.
In addition to all this, there are nu-
merous mineral springs. many of them
having marked medicinal qualities
which have already won for them a
wide reputation. At some of these san
itariums have been erected, and all the
conveniences OF modern civilization are
at hand.
healthful and varied diet than is ac-
cessible in any other locality. Fresh
fruits and vegetables the year round;
an abundance of wild game, and meats
that are nutritious and highly favored.
A climate where even delicate per-
son can, with no fear of taking cold,
spend ten of the twelve months in the
open air. needs few accessories in the
work of restoring impaired health or
vitality. Great numbers of semi-inva-
lids already go to California to escape
the cold of the eastern winters, and
find TO their constant surprise that a
great part of California winter is
almost an exact counterpart of the
balmiest days of an eastern spring.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Bullish Government Crop Report At
fects Wheat In Chicago.

Chicago, June 12-The effect of the I'M
expectedly bullish government crop report
given out Saturday was apparent at the
opening in wheat, but ii was soon shown
that other influences had superseded 1t
in the minds of spectators. The opening
in July ranged all the way from 1855 to a.
compared with Saturdays closing price
of l5i2. 1t sold at once at 16l2, but rallied
almost Immediately to 1875. But this little
spasm of nervousness disSipated all the
effect of the government report. The
selling was heavy on the bulge. Commits
sion houses were in the market with big
lots. For a short time the market held
up under the liquidation, but finally
broke, 161s being touched before any re-
action occurred. Heavy flour sales report
ed from the northwest caused a cessation
of liquidation from that direction. but in
the meantime local holders had apparently
lost confidence and the offerings at all
times exceeded the demand. The enorm-
Gus western movement became the one
factor as the session advanced. The Man
itoba government report gave an in
creased wheat acreage with an almost
perfect condition. Domestic crop news
was unfavorable as regards winter wheat.
but favorable as to spring wheat Inc
market became very weak toward the
close. on the announcement of the esti-
mated receipts of 400 cars tomorrow. July
finally sold down to 751s and closed at
75l4q753s.
Fears that the strike in Buffalo would
again involve the elevators weakened the
market later and prices gradually slid of.
Oats were independently strong. There
was again a good demand. mainly for the
deferred futures, some on foreign ac-
count and the most bullish crop report
restored prices during the decline of other
grains Selling was scattered. Receipts
were IS7- cars. July closed &c higher
Provisions were steady considering the
large run of hogs and lower yard prices
There was moderate general buying de-
mand and selling was scattered Trade on
the whole was small and prices kept with
in a narrow range. At the close, July
park was unchanged, lard 212, ribs ~
higher.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
