such remarkable signs of improve
ment in health and strength that
told him he had been drinking Postum

Evidences of Thritt.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
the march of progress. The adobe walls
that formed the battlements OF the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbled away
and the mission ruins are falling to
pieces. Prominent public buildings,
churches, stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beauti-
ful gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
nave been graded, new ones laid out, and
other impro vements made which give a
thrifty appearance to the city.
Foreign Element.-Of it's population,
however, consisting of about ten thou
sand people, large Mexican element re-
mains, and its presence gives foreign
air to the community as also do the
adobe buildings in which they mainly
dwell.
