THANKS OF THE STATE
ARE DUE TO THE BANKS

In this regard 1 wish to call your at
tention to the fact that the banks of
Sacramento. San Jose, Oakland and
Fresno have advanced large sums of
money with which to pay the members
Of the National Guard. 1 am also in
formed that the banks of San Fran
cisco. Los Angeles, San Diego and other
cities express a willing to advance
other sums for this purpose. The Ma
tional Guardsmen, therefore, will re-
ceive their pay, or the greater part
thereof. without any long wait.
The thanks of the State are due to
the banks which have thus advanced
the pay of the officers and men of the
State troops. And this willingness of
the banks to advance this money is an
other proof. If any We're needed. that
the services of the National Guard are
recognized by the people of this State
as OF great value to the body polite.
Governor Pardee then spoke of the
debt of gratitude owed by the State to
other States and Territories as we'll as
foreign Governments for relief extend
ed; also the sections of California
which suffered no damage. Governor
Pardee also returned thanks for the
assistance given by Generals Greedy
and Funston and the Federal troops.
Continuing, the Governor said:
Other towns than San Francisco
suffered greatly. Santa Rosa, San Jose,
Redwood City, Palo Alto and other To-
struction. But compared with the great
destruction of property in San Fran
cisco. their losses have been perhaps
overshadowed. Their needs should not
however. he forgotten"

FIRE NOT THE QUAKE
CAUSE OF THE DAMAGE

Governor Pardee emphasizes the fact
that ii was fire and not earthquake that
laid half of San Francisco low and in
conclusion says:
Gentlemen OF the Legislature. upon
you devolves the solemn and necessary
duty of giving such aid and comfort to
those of our people who have suffered
so heavily in the great disaster as rea-
sonably lies in your power. That that
aid and comfort should be quickly
given goes without saying, for the
needs are great and pressing. In COM
mon with the people of the State,
wish you all success in your labors of
the coming days of your session and
hope that harmony may mark all your
deliberations to the end that your la
bors may be quickly performed and
brought to a speedy and successful
end

WHERE THE TROUBLE LAY.
Disappointed Mans Explanation for

The other afternoon a man rushed
into the Reading terminal, galloped
UP the stairs and dashed for the train
shed just as the gates were closed
against him, says the Philadelphia
Telegraph.
He looked as if he wanted to swear
most vociferously, but he was out OF
wind, and all that he could do was to
lean against the fence and sou1fully
sigh. 1t was then that the grinful i'd
lot, who is always on hand, paced over
and butted in.
Did you miss your train, old boy?"
he queried, with smiling glance at
the painting one.

The ideal Family Laxative.

is one that can be used by the entire
family, young and old, weak and
strong, without any danger of harmful
effects. 1t should have properties
which insure the same dose always
having the same effect, otherwise the
quantity will have to be increased and
finally lose it's effect altogether. These
properties can be found in that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills, be-
cause it's ingredients are of the purest
herbal extracts, and every pill is kept
for three years before being sold,
which allows them to mellow. We do
not believe there is laxative on the
market that is so carefully made.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pills your grandparents
used. They have been in use for over
a century and are for sale everywhere,
either plain or sugar-coated.

eERMONETTE.

God calls prepared men into
his service. Joshua had long
been serving an apprenticeship
under the great leader, Moses,
and 1t may be assumed that he
had been studious and faithful.
A new epoch in a mans ca
reer is but the unfolding and
developing of the years which
have preceded. The living of
the present determines the
character Of the future.
As one follows the fragment
AIRY history of Joshua un to the
time he was chosen and anoint-
ed as the successor of Moses,
his loyalty to God and faithful
ness to present duty are strik-
ingIy apparent, in fact the first
Implies, or rather, involves, the
second. One cannot be loyal to
God and live careiessIy and
nealigentIy.
"a man In whom is the Spir-
It" was the testimony of God
as to the character of Joshua,
and In those few words is
crowded a whole biography.
More Spirit-fiIled men are
needed in the world to-day to
lead Gods people through the
pilgrimage Of life.
To be Spirit-tilIed does not
mean fanaticism, but means the
wisdom and power, and love of
God flowing through a human
channel. Joshua could fight like
general, could rule like a
statesman and could live like
a true son of God.
Tho solemn service which
marked the setting apart of
Joshua to the high office to
which God had called him is
suggestive of the modern or
dination of our ministers to the
Gospel ministry. But note that
the man was first chosen of God.
All the ordinations in the world
cannot create a leader for Gods
people If the Lord has not first
called him to that service.
We do not find any false mod
esty keeping Joshua from &C.
cepting the high office, as is so
often the case with those called
into active service in the church.
So many workers needed, and
yet how often we find the one
called holds back and pleads all
manner of excuses. If it is
Gods call, and it generally Is,
the soul dare not refuse.
"And thou shalt put some of
thine honor upon him." was the
charge of God to Moses, as he
instructed him concerning the
ordination of Joshua. What a !
privilege was this of Moses, to !
impart to his successor some
thing of the dignity, something .
Of the power and authority,
which had been his. Here is !
beautiful thought. The perpet-
uation of ones self in someone I
else. A beautiful thought, if it
is the best self which is i'm
pressed upon the other life. A
solemn and awful thought if the
impress of our life upon some .
one eIse's life is for evil. Seek
day by day to "put some of ]
thine honor" upon some one
else. .

THE STORY.

IN some way the rumor had gone
abroad through the camp of Israel
that Moses was to leave them.
Whether it was his manner, for the
people knew that the Lord had spoken
some new and startling message to
him, or his letting slip some word
about the future leadership of the
people, certain it is that the report
that God had called Moses and that a
new leader was to be named to lead
them into the Promised Land spread
like wildfire among the people, and
sadly yet wonderingly they watched
the aged leader leave the borders of
the camp and go solitary and alone
up Mount Abarim. And when he had
disappeared from view the silence
which had brooded over the people
was broken, and they fell to discuss
ing this new matter.
Prospective change always brings
ambition, worthy or otherwise, to the
hearts of some that they may occupy
the place left vacant, and such was
the case in Israel at this time when
the report that Moses was to leave
them and new leader was to take
his place at the head of the people.
Instinctively the people felt that it
could be none other than Joshua, who
had so faithfully served at the side
of Moses for many years, but among
the princes who ruled over the tribes
there were several who secretly COW
eted the high place. OF these was
Gaddiel, of the tribe of Zebulun, who
was son of that Gaddiel who was
among the spies who persisted before
the Lord when they had brought up
an evil report of the land.
why should the prince over tribe
of only $4,000 be chosen to lead Is
rael?" he demanded, angrily, of some
of his intimate friends who had gath
cred around him and were discussing
the new developments.
"But he has been through the
Promised Land and knows the way"
one of the number ventured to sug-
gest.
Eyes, but Caleb has, too, been
through the land, and he is at the
head of the largest tribe in Israel,
for according to Moses reckoning
when he took the recent poll of the
people there were 76,500 persons in
the tribe of Judah. Why should not
Caleb be chosen?"
Later in the day found Gaddiel in
the tent of Caleb, talking, earnestly
with that individual, but it could be
seen from the frown upon his face as
he left that he had not gained his
point.
"WelI. If you will not, will. Surely

passes into the Tabernacle court on
his way to the holy place, for he
would inquire of the Lord concerning
the matter AS he turns by the great
brazen bowl and passes the altar, an
object lying PROSTATE upon the ground
draws his attention, and stepping
thither, he finds Joshua, who in the
burden of his heart had come and
thrown himself before the Lords
altar.
And together they two walked out
before that great assembly and took
their place before Eleazar, the priest.
A great shout went ur, that was
quickly silenced as the priest raised
his arm and began to speak. And
when he had blessed Joshua and laid
his hands upon him. he turned to the
people and shouted:
Behold, here is the leader whom
God hath chosen to go before you into
the Promised Land. Obey him.
Then Moses stepped forward, and
placing his hand upon the head OF
Joshua, he said:
BE strong and of good courage;
for thou must go with this people unto
the land which the Lord hath sworn
unto their fathers to give them: and
thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
And the Lord, he it is that doth go
before thee; he will be with thee, he
will not fail thee, neither forsake
thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.'
AS the great assembly broke up and
departed to their tents, Gaddiel was
seen coming down the mountain side,
and in response to the questionings OF
the people, he replied:
"Yea, Joshua is our leader. We VIII
follow him."
