helps the blood to flow; it affords
prompt relief from biliousness, indi-

s25OO. The additional $500 an acre is
given as the reason for allowing the
options to expire. Manning has now
entered into negotiations to purchase
1OO-acre tract off Mason, lying di-
rectly north Of the tract already pur-
chased from Mason.
Mr.. Manning went to Seattle in the
afternoon, ostensibly to confer with in
terests there which are either backing
or are representatives of those behind
the tideflat purchases. Before leaving
he said he had called for abstracts on
about 100 acres Of the tideflats upon
which he had secured options, and as
soon as these were forthcoming the
deals would be closed.
There are many options obtained by
Manning that will not expire until the
last of the week. These will be taken
up.
Prices on tidef1at property are stead
lily stiffening, as a result of the pur-
chases made by Manning. The city has
just completed a bridge across the
Puyallup river where it crosses the
flats, and the county has made ar
engagements for the construction of a

sIoNs REPRODUCED AT THE
WORLDS FAIR.
Dried Peaches Used for the Main
Covering Of the Building
Unique Structure.

ST LOUIS. Aug. 18.-Callf0rnla

cinal counties have separate exhibits.

bouse of dried fruits, modelled after
one of the old Spanish mission
churches, built in the early days when
California was a part of Mexico. This
exhibit is pavilion of prunes, peaches
and apricots, with bottles of wine and
olive oil and jars of fruits and grapes
as window and corner decorations. The
mission style of architecture mas been
observed throughout with it's quaint
overhanging cornices, inches and dome
for bells.
The building is surmounted by a
perfect model of the Lick observatory
on the top of Mount Washington. Dried
peaches are used as the main covering
of the building, with apricots and
prunes as ornaments and cornices, and
the cross is made of prunes. The base
is made of boxes of dried fruits, such
as are prepared for commercial eX-
hibits and the artistic fruit church
serves as a sample room, where buy
ers may see but not purchase Califor-
MIA fruits.
Inside is a free school of instruction,
where Worlds Fair visitors are taught
how to cook and eat prunes. The
first consignment to arrive consisted Of
thirteen tons of dried prunes, which are
being served to visitors free of cost.
Coffee made of pruneS, figs and grain
is also served free in this odd house,
the object being to teach the world the
value of California fruits, both as food
and drink George E. Hyde, a prOmi-
nent California fruit man, is in charge

Forgive and Forget.

Forgive and fOrget-it is better
To fling all i'll feeling aside,
Than allow the deep cankering fetter
OF revenge in your breast to abide;
For your step Ger lifes path will be
lighter,
When the load from your bosom is
And the glorious sky will seem brighter
When the cloud of displeasure has
passed.
Though your spirits swell high with
emotion
To give back injustice again.
Sink the thought in oblivion's ocean,
For remembrance increases the pain.
O. why should we linger in sorrow,
When it's shadow is passing away
Or seek to encounter, tomorrow,
The blast that DER swept us today.
Our life's stream is a carrying river,
And though it may placidly glide,
When the sunbeams of joy DER it
culver,
1t must foam when the storm meets
the tide.
Then stir not the current to madness,
For it's wrath thou wilt ever regret;
Though the morning beams break on
thy sadness,
Ere the sunset, forgive and forget.

 Frank Kramer is under special con. tract to ride sixteen races at the Buf- falo Velodrome. One of these will be match race with ''Majah' Taylor on May 16. best two heats in three.
 Notwithstanding his European tour. Kramer does not intend to forfeit the American championship which he has held for four years. Instead of goina to Australia from Paris. as has been stated he would, Kramer will return to this country in time to take part in the circuit races.

 It win be comparatively easy for Kramer to win every event on the Na- tional circuit next year because of the suspension by the N. c. A. Of Wan thour, Mclean, Moran and the Bedell brothers.
