There are nine functions, including
the state dinners, given each winter by
the Chief Executive. They begin with
the New Years public reception and
finish about the middle of February.

the whole world, if it like, has free and
easy access. Receptions and dinners
follow each other in hot haste during
the intervening six weeks. First. the
Cabinet dinner during the week of
January 1st; next the exclusive and
dignifed diplomatic and judiciary re-
ceptions, week apart, each with its
complementary dinner. the diplomatic
feast including many guests; while at
the other dinner only he seighty men

wives participate. During the last

pathetic, when women personally set
forth almost whimsical pleas for admis-

to the intellectual treat served by the
gifted speakers for the day.
If some philosopher is in search OF a
happy man with a happy family he VIII
need no candle to find one in Fair OAKS.
If there is one happier than any other
whose name is written in the book OF
life, Percy NJ Bishop leads all the rest.
He has a good home, good tract OIL
land, his trees are doing we'll, the sun
shines all day for him, he has all the
money he wants for himself and family
and if he ever thinks of wanting more,
it is to- help some less happy man. his
house always has room for one more,
and his wagon is always large enough
to take in every traveller on the: road.
And. to crown all, he stubbornly re-
fuses to believe that there is another
spot in the world that has so many
blessings for man as Fair Oaks. He Is
by no means alone on the last point.
With such men any community will
prosper, and for such men the County
Supervisors are glad to build good
roads so that they can enjoy trip

is situated on an elevation which gives
it a commanding view 1t may be be-
cause it can look down on Mrs. Wards
fine flock of leghorns that the brothers
have started their poultry business. A
lot is inclosed with a high fence, and
poultry houses are being built. Eggs,
chickens and strawberries will grow on
this corner
Mrs. Ward is ahead again. This time
it is in shipping strawberries. On
Thursday she began shipping, and now
the berries are going to the market,
starting at 20 cents per basket.
The Four Gables is honored with

looking to adding a branch In telegra-
ply, giving especial attention to ma

Is completed the school will have ex-

One thing favoring this institution is
that the location enables the expenses

The Farmers Institute on the goth is
attracting a good deal of interest. The

The following lines were written by

Their rugged branches dropping low,
Where cling the moss and mistletoe.
High sloping hills, with wales between,
clothed i'll their dress of fairest green,
While star-like blossoms, gold and blue
among the grass are scattered through
Inc gorgeous peoples yellow blow
Vles with the sunsets golden glow,
Mhile through the perfumed air is heard
The Joyous notes of singing bird.
Beyond the distant mountains haze
we view the whte-capped peaks that

On tiptoe to behold this land.
The ripping rivers murmuring flow
Glides through the golden sands below,

Unwinding ever toward the sea.

Her beautious gifts throughout the land
While here all gather at her CALL

Can You Use
A GOOD Set
OF Brains?
GRAPE=NUTS
Are made of food elements
that tend directly to re-
build the brain.
A BRAIN MAKER.

If one cares for good, sturdy health
with which to build up a business or
peacefully and happily conduct house
hold, attention must be- paid to the
food. Bad food, or good food poorly
cooked, causes dyspepsia, poorly nour-
ished bodies and general irritation.
People who use Grape-Nuts for break
fast can depend on having the highest
quality of nourishment, and that per-
fectly cooked, for the food is finished
at the factory. and goes into the pack
ages crisp fully cooked and ready for
instant use with either hot milk or
cream or with cold thick cream or
syrup.
Either form gives a delicious dish that
one Graves morning after morning, and
brain-workers notice a distinct gain in
mental power for the delicate particles
of natural phosphate of potash taken
from the grains un!tes with the albumen
and goes directly TO rebuild brain and
nerve centers.
To find the proof in ones own body
Is the best argument. Try Grape-Nuts
ten days. A good sturdy set of brains
may start you into a great career.
