Not Particular.

Once while travelling General Molt-
Ike entered small Swiss hotel, and
as the head waiter saw his gaunt fig
ure stalking in, wrapped in worn-out,
dusty cloak, carrying an old leather
sachel, he measured his wealth by his
looks and ordered his assistant to
show him to small room in the up
permost story.
AS he was making himself comfort
able in the attic another assistant
came, as is customary there, to ask
the silent stranger his name and rank.
The consequence was that few min
utes later the proprietor, in full dress,
appeared at the door of the attic to
inform His EXcellency that a better
room had just been vacated.

London Hospitals.

London hospitals are always on the
dangerous edge of their resources, but
a doctor who has been quietly investi
eating the relations between means
and efficiency thinks that the means
are often wasted. Take, for example,
st. Georges, which students at other
hospitals call the kid glove hospital"
It occupies corner of one Of the most
crowded and noisiest areas in London.

this California Yankee lives in n won.
derful country-a land of extreme fer
tillty and of great natural resources
Although its mineral wealth first
attracted the settlers to this great land,
and the golden days of 40 lured the
travellers from peaceful New England
farms, yet many a sho el that turned
for gold has cultivated the roots Of an
orange tree.
Most of the settlers in this territory
originally came from the Atlantic
Coast States. They came by sea, az
the journey overland was too great,
but, having come, most Of them re-
mained. Only last week l saw an old
hulk that had long lam submerged in
a slough near Stockton, California.
This hulk was the corpus deficit Of an
old sea going vessel that was deserted
by all save her master, who stayed
"hard by" and built house upon 1t,
where he kept a restaurant and dined
his comrades at the mess table for
many years.
At San Joaquin City there is a
crumbling away of the bones of an
other ship that came round the Horn.
This ships bell was used for many
years Mt Durham's Ferry to summon
the ferryman to his work. That's the
way the Yankee first came to his new
country, and he came by whaleboats
and all mann4r of craft Arriving, he
chained his ship and let her rC while
he sought for gold.
On the other hand, the bulk Of the
men who came TO the Coast in 40 over
the overland route ended up in the
Southern portion of the State. which
was natural, because the steep Sierras
headed them off.
Moreover, many OF those who started
across the plains dropped by the way
side, and settled in Denver Kansas
City st. Louis and Omaha, but our
real New Englander-the man who
came "around the Horn stayed in the
State. and has become the California
Yankee.
He is a vigorous type, and from a
monetary standpoint he is the most
successful small farmer in the coun'
try. Although the climate is almost
semi-tropic, yet he still is engaged in
pursuits eminently Characteristic of
New England.
His dairy farming is carried on more
extensively than in any other locality
in the United States. He raises sheep
and he has great farms, but no ranches.
He is rarely clad in homespun but he
Is simple and frugal. The country in
the great Central California is almost
entirely composed of farms. The archi'
lecture of the villages, the churches,
the sunbonnets Of the women, all tell
of customs and habits transmitted from
New England, and that the "Califor'
mia Yankee" has suffered no substan'
tial change through his residence in
the Pacific Coast New England.
