The Ranchwoman.

The success of Mrs. w. N. Sherman
and the beauty of her hospitable home,
the famous Minnewawa ranch in Cali.
fornia, should be an incentive to every
woman to hold fast to the home in
stinct while winning her way in the
business world. In the face of much
opposition and caustic comment Mrs.
Sherman, soon after leaving an east
ern college, bought large tract of un-
improved land near Fresno, deter
mined by her own efforts to develop
its possibilities.
Her success is indicated by the fact
that Minnewawa is valued az over FIVE
times the original investment. During
the busiest season there are over 400
people at work on the ranch and in the
cannery. Since discovering that by
personal oversight of the packing her
grapes brought from 800 to $500 more
per carload than when left to the SUI
pervision of others, Mrs. Sherman
very sagely concluded that woman
can be real helper, even though she
leave the care of the household to
some one else. Mrs. Sherman has not
confined her efforts TO raisin growing
alone, but has national reputation as
a stock raiser and fruit grower.-Pil-

Calumet Baking Powder is now used
in millions of homes, and its popular
ity is rapidly growing in your state. 1t
is found that this is due to the fact
that it is a high-grade powder Of rare
merit and is sold at moderate price,
and the use of Calumet Baking Pow
der always insures perfect results.
Further, food prepared from 1t con-
tains no injurious substance, and 1t is
recommended by the leading ply
sicians and chemists.

Why do we lead all the nations OF
the earth in prosperity, happiness and
Individual contentment?
Why are we, as people, regarded as
an invincible power OF impregnable
strength?
And why do we compel the admira-
tion OF the whole world-at times
grudgingly given, but given. anyhow ?
II is because We are free and inde-
Iendent in the truest meaning Of the
words.
We think for ourselves, act for our
selves, govern ourselves more than the
people OF any other nation.
We are absolutely self-reliant, a ma
tional trait that renders us independ-
ent of all other nations. independence
is the keynote OF our supremacy.
And this is the reason why to-
date grocers and storekeepers appreci-
ate the fact that Americans OF both
sexes have strong Wills OF their own,
and do not need interested advice.
Every up-to-date grocer knows per-
fectIy well that for more than a quar-
ter OF century Lion Coffee has been
the leading package coffee and a well
come drink at the tables of millions OF
American homes.
He knows-and everybody else knows
that II has always kept its old
friends and steadily made new ones.
Good. reliable. trustworthy grocers
willingly acknowledge this, and all In
dependent housekeepers will insist mp
on having Lion Coffee and no other, nc
matter what kind of an argument gro
GERS Of obstinate principles may ad-
vance.
Americans want the best. and they
get the best and purest In Lion Coffee

Remarkable Freak of Lightning Re.
ported from California.

ported from California.
Lawrence Brown was struck by
lightning Tuesday while out sailing
cattle His right ear was burned, the
lightning went down his right side,
burning his leg in several places and
scorching the leather of his stirrup.
The horse that he was riding was
killed under him, dropping instantly,
and its body did not show the slightest
mark.
The lightning came down pine tree
under which the horse and rider were
passing, and the whole thing occurred
in the sunshine. He was about twenty
feet from the dead horse when he re-
covered consciousness, and his hat,
which was cut by the lightning across
the top, was at a much greater dis
tance. When he came to himself the
first thing he wanted was water. He
crawled to ditch, and his right side
dragged as if paralyZed. However,
there is none of that numbness left.
1t simply cannot be explained how
he escaped. From the path the light.
ming took down his body, it would ap.
pear that it passed into the horses
body from his spur, but nothing on the
body of the dead animal furnishes any
it extinguished the fiames.-Baltimore
