Physicians Recommend Castoria

CAST0RIA has met with pronounced favor on the part Of physicians pharma-

results most gratifying. The extended use Of Cashria is mquestOnably the

It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and does not supeh. It is unlike Soothing Syrups Batemans Drops, GOdheyis

ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To

DISCUSS PLANS
FOR AN AVENUE
Property Owners and Lease
Holders on Union Square
Avenue Are Enthusiastic

a meeting of the property owners and
lease holders of the blocks bounded by
Geary, Stockton, Post and Kearny streets
and Of invited guests who are interested
in civic improvement was held in the
Conservatory of the Palace Hotel last
night to discuss ways and means of beau
tifying Union Square avenue and turning
the alley into an attractive place for re-
tail shoppers. Plans were talked over
and a sketch of a proposed arcade struc-
ture was introduced. but because of the
small number o. property owners present
no definite action was taken. On a motion
of E. S. Rothchild another meeting was
arranged for Thursday evening and an
attempt will then be made to carry the
matter to an issue.
The retail merchants and those of the
property owners who were in attendance
seemed very enthusiastic over the possi-
bility of the artistic Improvement. Most
of them had seen the shopping streets
of Paris, Berlin, Milan and other Euro
pean cities. where the covered shopping
avenues have been in vogue for many
years.
Newton J. Tharp, an architect, was in
troduced by J. W. Raphael and he unfold
&c a complete sketch of a covered Union
Square avenue. On each side of the
street were walks seven feet wide. Every
thirty feet was pillar, made of iron and
SuDDOrtinR a glass TOOL lneSe supporting
pillars solve the difficulty of possible re-
construction. With them any building
along the block can be completely re-
modelled without injury to the archway.
At short spaces along the roof Of the ar
cades are openings which are for use in
case of fire. AT the meeting Thursday
night Architect Tharp will present figures
TO show the entire cost Of structure of
this kind.

GRAPE-NUTs.
FEED YOU MONEY.
Feed Your Brain and IL VIII Feed You
Money and Fame.

Ever since boyhood I have been
especially fond of meats. and am con-
vinced I ate too rapidly and failed to
masticte my food properly.
The result was that I found myself.
few years ago, afflicted with ailments
Of the stomach and kidneys, which in
terfered seriously with my business.
AT last 1 took the advice of friends
and began to eat Grape-Nuts instead Of
the heavy meats, etc, that had consti-
tuted my former diet.
Il found that / was at once benefited
by the change, that was soon relieved
from the heartburn and the indigestion
that used to follow my meals: that the
pains in my back from my kidney af-
lection had ceased, showing that those
organs had been healed. and that my
nerves, which used to be unsteady. and
my brain, which was slow and lethar-
greasy foods, had, not in a moment
but gradually and none the less surely
been restored to normal efficiency. Now
every nerve is steady and my brain
and thinking faculties are quicker and
more acute than for years past
After my old syle breakfasts I used
feeling of weakness which hindered
me seriously in my work, but since
have begun to use Grape-Nuts food I
can work till dinner time with all ease
and comfort" Name given by Postum

ENDS IN DEATH
AXel L. Assam, Printer, Is

Since Coming to the City

Axel l.. Assam-to familiars "The

months from locomotor ataxia.
The symptoms of the disease manifest
ed themselves four years ago, and de-
ceased went to the country in the hope
that an outdoor life would restore him to
health. That hope was not realized,
however, and in December last he re-
turned to the city to seek the assistance
that medical skill could give. But the er-
forts IN his behalf were in vain.
Mr.. Assam was 81 years of age and was
born in Svendborg. Denmark His father
was publisher of a paper at that place,
and in his Office the boy became master
OF the printing trade on graduation from
school life, where he won high honors.
After severing home ties, Mr.. Assam
worked in Berlin, Paris, London and
other European cities for some years, and
about 1888 came to the United States
Some time was passed in New York on
dally papers and in other pursuits. Then
came a three years stay in Denver,
after which Mr. Assam came TO the coast.
In 1855 he took employment on The Car,
and his ability was so manifest that he
was soon placed in the proofroom, where
he served for about ten years.
OF a retiring disposition and most gen.
erOus in character. Mr.. Assam's init
mates were not many. but those who
were admitted to friendship appreciated
his sterling qualities and will sincerely
regret his passing.
