pEREEcr PEACE

Peace, perfect peace, in this dark world
of sin?
The blood of Jesus whispers peace
within. -
Peace, perfect peace, by thronging du-
ties pressed?
To do the will of Jesus, this is rest.
Peace, perfect peace, with sorrows
surging round?
On Jesus bosom naught but calm is
found.
Peace perfect peace, with loved ones
far away?
In Jesus keeping we are safe and they.
Peace perfect peace, our future all
unknown?
Jesus we know and he is on the
throne.
Peace, perfect peace, death shadowing
us and ours?
Jesus has vanquished death and all it's
powers
1t is enough; earth's struggles soon
shall cease,
And Jesus call us to heavens perfect
peace.

navel, seldom crack; such cases do
not have the splits always at the
blossom end. Occasionally Navel or
ange splits on the side. This all goes
to show that the navel is not respOn-
sble for all of the splitting. We have
no data showing that orchards fertil-
lied in any particular way are more
free from splits than others or vice
versa.
Pruning of the orange should be
confined to the cutting back of strag-
CLING branches and cutting out useless
wood that forms i'm the interior of the
tree. Open spaces will soon become
filed by sprouts that grow out of
them. An orange tree that has an
uneven growth may be made symmet-
rical by the heading in of the out

Split Oranges. Pruning Orange
Trees.

The knowledge of the cause which
produces split oranges has been
sought with great interest by many
orange growers. The opinion of The
California CultivatOr is worthy of
consideration. But here, where we
grow very few Navels, comparatively
and yet lose thousands of oranges
by splitting, we can feel sure that
whatever the cause it is not produced
by the navel.
Editor CultivatOr:+ you please
tell me the cause of oranges splitting
and what is to be done to prevent it?
Is pruning the way to correct an Or
ange tree that resembles a deciduous
tree, being open and its branches
strangled-F. w. W., Highland.
We would be delighted to give you
an answer that would satisfy the
question of why do oranges split?"
The department at Washington has a
man working on this problem. 1t has
been discussed through the columns
of this paper number of times, and
only theories have been advanced. No
any satisfaction. 1t is believed to be
some weakness of the navel, as the
splitting, with rare exceptions, takes
place at that point. There are always
some splits each season, some seasons
show more than others. We have no
ticed that some varieties, Jaffa for in
stance, produce fully 90 per cent of
splits in some localities every year.

MRS, M, w. FREEMAN

Every woman loves a well fitting and
becoming gown, and realizes how it en-
hances her good looks, but not every
woman understands just how to make
the best of her opportunities. 1t has been
said of Mrs. M. w. Freeman, the popular
and experienced dressmaker, located at
S55 South Hill street, that she gives every
one of her patrons a good figure. Mrs.
Freeman smiles knowingly at this re-
mark, as she realizes that the first-class
dressmaker rarely tampers with her
patrons figure except to drape it in such
manner as to conceal it's defects and
reveal its good points. This bright woman
and admirable modiste has the artistic
must have If they would be successful,
and during the five years that have
elapsed since she established herself in
this city she has secured the patronage
of the exclusive and fashionable set, as
well as of much larger but no less de-
sirable class of well dressed and socially
prominent women. She has twelve COM
petent dressmakers in her employ all
the time and is always overcrowded with
work. Fashionable dinner and evening
gowns, wedding trousseaus and elegant
street dresses are her speciality, and the
handsomely gowned women of Los An
geles owe much of their attractiveness to
the artistic work of this very skillful lady

training from twenty to thirty pupils.
This eminent instructor has the rare
faculty of being able to bring out and
develop the individual qualities in each
voice, and his popularity as a teacher
is largely owing to this ability on his
part. AS a musical director he has
also done specially fine work. For
eight years he has directed the work of
the Y. NJ. c. A. glee club, chorus class
and quartet. He has been tenor of
Temple B'nai Birth, director of the
Apollo club of Monrovia (mixed voices),
and of the Enterprise male quartet,
known all over the state, besides which
within the last couple of years he has
added the dictatorship of the Philomela
ladies' quartet and Operatic club. In
addition to all the care and RESPONSE
bility connected with this important
work. he directs the First Christian
church, Epiphany Episcopal choir and
Temple Bnai Birth. He arranges for
concerts and entertainments, and there
are few musical functions that do not
depend to large extent upon his work
for success

TRANSFER, TRUCK AND
DELIVERY CONCERNS
PIONEER TRUCK AND
TRANSFER COMPANY

No sort of public convenience is more
valued and appreciated than, the services
of an up-to-date and reliable truck and
transfer company. and the people of Los
Angeles may we'll count themselves for
tunate to have at their command services
of the Pioneer company. The Pioneer
operates from sixty to seventy teams
and do every kind of hauling and moY,,
ing all over the city, and devote special
attention to freight hauling, doing a
large amount of work as distributors or
consolidated car shipments, in which
latter lines they are always to be relied
upon for prompt and satisfactory de-
liveries. They are also general forward
ers looking carefully after all the de-
tails of packing, billing, etc, for their
patrons. In the moving business they are
the best in the city They pack the
household furniture with care and haul
valuable pieces in padded vans, etc, so
that the dangers of breakage in NOV
ing are reduced to minimum. The
proprietors of the company are c.. H.
Fuller and Fred fucker, both of whom
are transfer men of long experience. This
company have been engaged in the bust,
ness for thirty-fve years or more and
have operated under their present name
since 1888, the present management hav-
ing had charge since that date. Their
offices are centrally located at 201-203

C, S, DE LANO

Among the best established musical
instructors of Los Angeles is C. S. De
Iano, whose name heads this sketch.
He has been established here nearly
twenty years, and has held during that
time a most enviable position among
the members of his profession. and has
always enjoyed a large patronage and
many friends in the city. In no line is
a competent instructor of more import
ance than in music, and one who for
eighteen. years has been a teacher is
surely skilled in his work, as is seen
from the results accomplished by his
pupils and from observation of his
methods. Mr.. De Lano gives private
lessons on the guitar, banjo and man
dolin at his elegantly furnished studio,
which occupies rooms lis and 119 at
314 West Fourth street. All instruction
is given in private lessons. and upward
of seventy pupils belong to the various
branches of his class. He is also in
structor in Marlborough Girls Collie
giate schools, University of Southern
California and Dobinson school. His
work is widely known throughout the
city and Southern California He is
thoroughly abreast of the times in all
things musical. and is himself very en-
thusiaStic in all his work.

The large establishment of Mr.. r. w,
Pridham at 10 and liz North Los An
geles street is one that is highly credit
able to his enterprise. Printing, book
binding and the manufacture of paper
boxes constitute the combined work of
Mr.. Pridham's house. This establishment
was made twenty-three years ago at Los
Angeles on a small scale, and his work
has grown in correspondence with the de-
velopment of the city and the country of
all the southwest The larger part of
this trade is the constantly growing de-
mand for the paper boxes made for com.
mercial purposes by this house, while Mr.
Pridham also has a large local business
in printing, designing and book binding.
He does a large amount of commercial
printing and makes a speciality of fancy

work being the fancy labels on his own
manufactures. These manufactures COM

evidence of his enterprise and his ability
as a manager.

WILLIAM Il. MEAD

Musicians from every country under
the sun have made Los Angeles their
home during the last score of years,
until this city may properly be spoken
of as a musical center. Seventeen years
ago William II. Mead. the well known
flutist, came to this city from the east,
and so cordial welcome did he receive
from the musical people of this com.
munity that he has ever since remained
among us. Mr.. Mead is a musician of
rare gifts, being possessed of remark
able talent in the line of organizing
and directing orchestral societies. In
this line a great deal of work has been
done by him in Los Angeles, both for
church and other societies. For nine
years or more he has remained the
capable director of the orchestra in the
First Congregational church, and has
been chiefly instrumental in making 1T
what it is, one of the best orchestras in
the city. This widely experienced and
educated instructor has his studio in
the Blanchard building, room BOG. where
he receives pupils. His residence is at
151 South Union avenue, and he may be
found here during his leisure hours;
Mr.. Mead has a host of friends in and
outside of musical circles

SIGNoR JANNoTrA

Signor Jannotta needs no introduc-
tion to our people, especially to the
musical, art-loving classes. In a re-
view written by c. B. Harger, editor of
the Chicago Musical Times this para
graph occurs: He (Signor Jannotta)
has been so prominently identified with
the best successes in the musical world
that his name is widely known and
stands for the highest ability in vocal
art. He is "a master in truth and in
name-a fact fully evidenced by the
long list of remarkable voices that
have left his care to receive the plaudits
of critical audiences at home and
abroad" He is IL graduate of the ia
nous Conservatory of Music at Naples,
Italy, in the class of 1860, and has de-
voted his life since that time to music
wholly, cultivating and imparting the
highest expression of that noble art.
For seventeen years Signor Jannotta
was large factor in the musical life
of Chicago, where he taught his meth
eds ST. ,cessfully. Today he is a resi-
dent of this city, and, better still, has
opened a studio for the teaching of
vocal music in the Blanchard building.
233 South Broadway, where he will be
pleased to consult parents and young
people on the subject of voice instruc-
tion. That he is at the head of vocal
instructors in this country is shown by
the fact that he has the Endorsement of
such pupils as Theodore Pfafflin and
Bessie Mcdonald, of world-wid fame.

them to give prompt dispatch and salts

the oldest trucking company in the city,
