GOOD OLD SUMNER TIVE

OF course it's warm, good people;
regular summer weather. And about
time, too The spring of 1906 will go
down in Los Angeles weather annals as
one of the coolest and most backward
on record. Rains after June 1, such
as fell this year, are almost unprece-
dented, and their effect on crops would
not this warm spell come Now that
the thermometer is climbing daily to
the upper sos, however, the greatest
harvest of years is assured, and this
very hot spell is doing 1t.
But don't worry because it is nor
mally warm. This heat won't hurt
anyone. 1t is dry and clear and brac-
ing. The air is free from muggy mois-
ture and the breeze is sweet and
balmy. With the coming of night the
wind blows down from the mountains
and blankets are as necessary now as
they were in December-but not more
so. This is still Gods most blessed
country, and its climate is yet the
nearest approach to the perfection of
paradise that we shall ever know.
Besides, contrast the gorgeous sum-
mer we are having with the fearful
weather that is cursing the east Den
yer is sweltering. The middle west is
varying between excessively damp
heat, that willis people by the score, and
tornadoes that devastate states at a
time. Ontario, Canada, and Michigan,
Ohio and Pennsylvania are just re-
porting the casualties of a terrific
wind, thunder and hail storm that
swept over them Friday at sixty miles
an hour leaving wreck and death i'm it's
path. Within a month st. Louis has
ranged from sunstroke to snow and
back again, ana New York is becoming
living hell
These things are nothing new, how
ever they are quite the expected in
the east; they are, in fact, hardly so
severe as usual. People back there live
In continual dread of blizzards in
winter and cyclones anG sunstrokes in
summer, and they have precious little
interim, either. Los Angeles, on the
contrary, never has any of these
things, and its temperature the year
through doesn't show 10 per cent aver
age range.
SO what if it does seem warm for a
few hours at midday? 1t is cool at
night. Suppose it is even hot in the
city streets. There Is relief in the shade
and cool breeze whispers of the ocean
everywhere. Don't worry; don't fret;
don't stew. Half the discomfort of heat
is thinking about il. Smash the ther-

In many respects itineration is closely
akin to circuit riding, which still holds
in certain sections of this country. IN
deed, some of the boards have organ
lied this work of late years into cir
cults, which are covered at regular in
tervals.
Many Of the two hundred-odd mis-
sionaries, Catholic and Protestant,
killed by the boxers were itinera ting
at the time. Previously missionaries
were frequently stoned and otherwise
insulted. only a few, however. were
killed and they by pirates and ban
dts. Since the boxer rising the old

SMOKE AND WHAT HAPPENs7

Men are so habituated to the outcry
againsr smoking that there are few
who do not ignore it.
Smokers who have some regard for
the anxieties of their friends say that
they smoke tobacco from which nico-
tine has been eliminated. Tobacco so
prepared can be found near at hand,
which eliminates nicotine. if it does not
destroy, ma terially modifies the SAVIOR
of the smoke. The outcry is always
the same-Nicotine! But many other
of the principles of, tobacco are as
pernicious as nicotine, and when it
comes to that it would be equally per-
nicious to smoke rye straw or any other
simple because Cfor one of several
reasons) there Is a continuous produc-
ton of oxide of carbon wherever there
is imperfect combustion. The smoker
carries in his mouth a little furnace,
whose fires are fed with oxide of car
bon; the fire shoulders under ashes
and the smoker fans it by means Of
the stem of his pipe or the vent of
his cigar or cigarette. Year after year.
and all the year, the furnace is i'm place,
burning oxide of carbon, and the
smoker is working the bellows with
part of the force of his respiratory
organs. The composition of tobacco
smoke is complex. Analysis gives;
Nicotine. pyridic bases, formic aide
hyde, ammonia, prusslc acid, butyrlc
acid, carbonic acid, oxide of car
bon. the steam of water, an ether
lied empyreumatic oil, and tarry
or resinous products, among which
we detect small quantities of phenol.

HEROIC TREATMENT NEEDED

A distinguished American, Just re.
turned from a prolonged visit IN
Europe says: Recent revelations
about our business enterprises have
produced most unpleasant impression
abroad: over there they think our in
surance business is all rotten, and are
apparently glad to think So" Further
more, we are told, "You can see an
undercurrent of belief that we Ameri-
cans are on the make all the time"
Bearing on the same general sub
iect comes the statement from London
that "all admiralty and war office con-
tracts which have been placed since
the disclosures affecting the meat pack
ing industry IN the United States stipu-
late that canned meats must be British
or colonial products"
These signs of American business
trouble in Europe are corroborated by
high authority at home. Kansas City
reports that "the business done by the
packing houses located here will suffer
to the extent of s1OOOO,OOO as a result
of the presidents crusade against
canned meats" member of the larg-
est packing firm in Chicago says: "I do
not think the estimate of $3.50, ,00O. 900
loss to the packers In the whole coun-
try is exaggerated"
There Is no reason to doubt the cor
rectness of any of the foregoing con-
cusions. Moreover, 1t is known that
A N h.x
depressed In the European markets be-
cause of the railway rate issue, and
that, in fact. there is widespread
feeling of distrust abroad con corning
American business methods generally,
growing out of the present disclosures.
Well, what arc we going to do about
it? Shall we shut off Investigation,
suppress startling facts and stop at
the very gateway of reform. for the
sake of saving losses to the European
business of our great trusts? Never!
Experience with the life insurance ten
tacle of the colossal trust octopus points
to the correct method of treatment for
all the rest. That tentace was cut off
so closely to the body that it caused
the whole animal to squirm and bleed.
The effect as already seen, however,
was to purify and strengthen the entire
insurance business. to restore public
confidence in it's control, and to pave
the way for lower policy rates.
Apply the butcher knife TO the meat
packing tentacle of the trust octopus,
cleanse these worse than Augean
stables at Chicago, purify and reform
the entire business from ranch toI
table" as familiar advertisements put
it. When that job has been completed
at Chicago. sharpen the knife anew and
tackle the other tentacle.
Finally, when the octopus is as for
lorn as pollywog that has just shed its
tail, turn the knife upon its body and
slash it down to such proportions as
the whole Democratic party and a
rapidly increasing element in the Re-
publican party loudly demands.
Here is the explanation of the de-
mand: The octopus is the Republican
protective tariff whereon the trust ten
tacles have grown and been nourished
to their present proportions.

Since June there have been 226 per-
mits issued for building improvements
valued at $5O7612. 1t must be remem-
bered that three days of the nine also,
were legal holidays. Practically an
one week the value of the building per-
mits has exceeded half a million dol
lars. At this rate the month of June
promises to be another record breaker.

one-story frame cottages, averaging
$1,000 each. This is an eloquent demon

The board of education has begun
to make some progress in the work OF
erecting new school buildings author
lied by the s7SO,OOO bond issue. Bids
have been called for twelve new build
ings and it is anticipated that con-
tracts will be let on June 90. Citizens
are hopeful that the work will now be
hastened to completion, in order tina t
overcrowding in the schools may be
reduced at the earliest possible mo-
ment. 1t is a shame that Los Angeles
can, in many districts. give only half
day sessions to thousands of pupils,
and it behooves the board and the
management to remedy this condition
as rapidly and as far as circumstances

The finances of the Young Mems
Christian association are reported as
progressing fayorably. The new build
ing fund now amounts to 100000. and ii
is expected that the remaining $50 900
will be shortly raised. At the same
time The Herald renews its suggestion
that the present lot owned by the asso-
citation be sold. 1t cost about sos
several years ago, and can now be dis
posed Of for something more than twice
the money An equally desirable lot
could be purchased elsewhere for
100000 Or less. and the association
would thereby have a large cash in
crease to It's funds. That would seem
10 be easy hnanciering, and eventually
that course may be pursued.

Like to our life my press is-a maze of
myriad wheels,
Turning ever and ever-the days and

Ever and ever turning, they 60 in

Only the Pressman watches, to see that
they never err.
They grind in a weary measure-the

purpose and plan and scope
BUT the scheme of the complex workings.
with it he can never cope.
He sees the roll of white paper, the clean,
pure and perfect strip,
Wind its way thro' the mazes. with never
a tear or rip;
Ever a shining ribbon: a, dazzpnr ana
cleaning strand,
Till, out from the NAV of the monster
he holds 1t, printed, at hand!
Onward and ever onward Each drum
leaves its impress clear;
Here and there is a printing, the message
of love, or fear;
Hate. and failure. and winning; pomp
and wreck, stress and dole,
TIL, folded, dated and ready, the parers
a finished whole!
Naught knows he of the process, the in

Gone by that strand of paper to give
him news O. the day;
Only he sees the beginning, the press, aid

Little recks he of the travail-so little, Ie

But I-Oh know the meaning, the pun
pose, of every part!
L follow the white flow onward, straight

Nothing to me is confusing; the scope and
the scheme are plain

And even as I start and stop it-hold 1t at

1 see me mighty vision that makes my
soul tremble, thrill!
CLEAN from my presses a meaning, that

BILE, and hope, and fate!
Out from the scroll of the darkness we
come at our earliest day;
Into the web and the vortex of life does
our pathway lay;
Twixt cylinders. cams and rollers we
pass as we onward go,
Taking each impress given, tho why we
may never know!
God is this life's great Pressman; life is
the Goss or Hoe:

Naught, and we need know nothing-the

Till our wavering ribbon is ended-our
