MOUNTAIN OUTINGS

A hot reminder that the mountain
outing season has arrived comes from
the San Bernardino range at a point
about eighty miles east of Los An
geles. A big forest fire was reported
recently in that locality, the cause, as
stated, being carelessness on the part
of pleasure campers.
1t is a toss UP" for choice between
the ocean on one side of Los Angeles
and the mountains on the other. in the
matter of outing attractions. Both are
within easy reach of the city, by splen-
did transit service, at comparatively
trivial cost. The great majority of peo-
pie are more familiar with old oceans
allurement than with the offerings of
the lofty mountains that seem to
beckon from a distance. This because,
probably, the mountain outing involves
more of the strenuous feature than
does a languid listening to what the
wild waves are saying.
But a person who once has enjoyed
the pleasure of a camping jaunt in the
great mountain ranges of Southern
California never is satisfied without a
repetition of the pleasure. Even the
ocean loses its charm by comparison If
the individual is physically able to en-
joy to the limit all the opportunities
that the mountains afford.
Eastern visitors to Southern Califor-
mia, who are acquainted with the At
lantic ocean and with the mountains of
the eastern states, fully appreciate the
delight of an outing tour in our own
Sierra. BY comparison the eastern
mountains are as pigmies to giants be-
side the towering ranges here. The
Blue Ridge mountains the Alleghanies,
the Catskills and the Adirondacks
would make only passable foothills for
mountains within sight of Los Angeles.
And a little farther away, but still
within sharp view from Los Angeles,
can be seen not only the pate of grand
"old Baldy," but the peaks of San Ber-
nardino and Grayback as well, almost
touching the line of perpetual snow.
Taking into account consideration of
health, recreation, novelty, natural
beauty and economy as well, the noun
tain outings available within two or
three railway hours at most cannot be
matched for pleasure in any section of
the earth.
If your health needs bracing and your
system fresh toning, try a mountain
outing. Subsequently note it's appalling
effect on the provision stock you have
laid In and on the number of girth
holes you have let out.

LOWER PASSENGER FARES

A surprising announcement was
flashed Friday morning in states and
territories of the far west. 1t was a
sudden and totally unexpected notice
of general reduction in railway pas
senger fares. The lines on which the
new schedule will be effective are the
Southern Pacific, Union Pacific, Santa
Fe Salt Lake and the Oregon Short
Line. It is presumable that other lines
in the territory thus embraced will
meet the reduction, and that 1t will
extend to the entire mountain and
coast district.
The reduced rates named for Cali
fornia are most pleasing to all people
OF the state. They are not such NOM
inal concessions as railways are wont
to make at times, but real and sub
stantial reductions, extending. as a
rule, from 10 to 25 per cent. The re-
duced schedule will cut considerable
slice from the passenger earnings OF
the railways at the start, but managers
believe the impetus thus given to travel
will soon compensate for the initial
loss.
1t is a wise policy for all interests
that has been marked out by this
movement. Travel certainly will be
stimulated, inviting greater inflow OF
homeseekers. California will receive
the lions share of benefit. probably
because the trend of migration. on the
part of homeseekers. capitalists anC
business men, is toward this state And
the interests OF the people and the rail
way companies are so intimately relat
ed that both will be substantial gamers

NAPLES AND AN EARrHouAkE

:. Apropos Of Vesuvius and it's erup-
tions, a New York man said:
u dined in the spring at the new
Hotel Excelsior in Rome with Henry
white, the American ambassador. and
Mr. White told me a little known and
astounding fact. This fact was that for
seventy-five consecutive years the NOR
tallty from volcanoes and earthquakes
in Italy had averaged 1900 year.
Mr.. White told also a story about
Naples, story that the Neapolitans
love.
He said that two Englishmen at
tended a dinner at one of the Neapoli-
tan hotels on the water front-one of
those hotels along that massive stone
embankment against which the waves
of the sea often break in showers of
spray thirty or forty feet high.
After the dinner the Englishmen
went out for walk. They walked
along the embankment. The sea was
rough. The spray splashed them. Soon
they saw a statue, and, as they neared
this staue, 1T nodded to them gravely.
Did you see that statue nod?' said
the first Englshman.
1T is this confounded Capri wine
said the first.
well, said the second we had bet
ter get back home to bed before we are
run in
so, ashamed of themselves, the Eng
lishmen went home to bed, and when.
amazingly fresh when all things were
considered, they sat down to breakfa st
the next morning, their waiter said to
them:
Did the gentlemen feel last nights
slight earthquake shock?"
Los Angeles herald., 1906-06-17

But the step thus taken by the rail-
way managers invites another one IN
the same direction. II It Is good busi-
ness policy to reduce passenger fares,
why should IL not be equally good busi-
ness policy to make q reduction in
freight rates? There is no perceivabla
reason why this rule should not work
both ways"
So far as California is concerned,
there has been comparatively little
complaint on the ground OF excessive
passenger rates. on the other hand,
there has been loud and incessant COM
plant In regard to freight charges. The
justice of the complaint has been off,
cially recognized by the interstate com
merce commission, particularly in the
decision that the frelghtage on oranges
Is at least Is per cent too high.
The concession by the railway man
ayers now announced will have a good
effect in allaying the friction that long
has existed in this state between the
railway corporations and the public.
The considerate act Of the managers
will be regarded as a foreshadowing of
the tme when the railway lion and the
public lamb shall lie down together,
without the latters risk of being run
over by a train.

MELTING DOWN THE HIPS

Trim hips are the rage now, mad
am" said the beauty doctor. "ShalI
l melt yours down?''
MELT them DOWN."
The man brought forth a stiff mould.
kind of hip corset, that laced in two
places. long piece of flexible tub
ing connected the instrument with the
electrical appar; -us at the other end
of the room.
This mould" he said, "came direct
from Paris. 1t cost 1880. though the
material in it is not worth a pair of
shoes. But it is very ingeniousiy con-
structed, and it works well. I'd guar
antee 1T, in week, to take six or seven
pounds off your hips, madam.
Heat and pressure, applied in con-
junction, are the factors that do the
work-two marvellous new factors that
in local reduction exceed the widest
dreams of the past. Why, madam, if
1 put this mould on you, laced it tight.
and turned on the electric heating ap-
paratus, the mould's heat and it's pres
sure together would, in less than an
hour, take an inch off your hips di-
mensions.
II have smaller moulds, likewise cleo
trically heated, for reducing fat backs,
double chins thick ankles, and SO on.
I am achieving wonderful results. The
swift way I melt down my patrons in
spots is amazing"

STORY GROWS ON ITS TRAVELS

Careful readers of the World will
remembed the touching tale here re-
printed by the London Punch:
We are glad to hear from the Bir-
mingham Post that New Jersey gen.
tleman has, after lengthy experiments
succeeded in producing a brood of
eleven chickens each having one leg
longer than the other. The advantage
claimed for them over other chickens
is that they are, by reason of their de-
formity, compelled to walk in circles
and cannot therefore wander far afield.
I'VE think the New Jersey gentleman
has wasted his time rather. He could
nave got the same results, at far less
inconvenience to himself, by produc-
ing a brood of chickens each having
one leg shorter than the other"
That story is only started.
Reaching London by way of Birming-
ham, 1t will go direct to South Africa
and India. The Pietermaritzburg
Guardian will apply it to ostrich farm
ing A side-hill ostrich manifestly
could not run far. The Lahore Tribune
will work it up as the clever device of
Punjab Khitmuger to prevent dak
bungalow fowls from straying out of
reach.
Meanwhile the tale will go direct
from New York to Australia, New Zea-
land, China and Japan by way of San
Francisco, and to Havana and Mexico,
where ii will be recast to fit fighting
cocks. The japanese Puck will make
fire-cracker drawing of the side
winder chicken. The Singapore Straits
Budget will print it. In time it will
reach Brazil. Chill and Argentina In
some serious-minded Latin towns it
will be printed as solemn fact.
In seven or eight months the story
will have gone round the world and
will return to New York with a new
setting as: "The Postwar Gazette
says" etc.
One thing it will never do. and that
is stop travelling. 1t will never die;
1t was never born. The last time 1t
went round the world it was a good
story. An inventor had produced a
flock of goats with their two left legs
shorter than their right ones so that
they could comfortably Craze round
and round hill on an ascending spiral
from base TO summit.-New York

GENERAL MILES vINpIcArEp

Let It not be forgotten that the real
beginner of the campaign against the
packers was Nelson Appleton Miles,
formerly commanding general Of the
army of the United States. Seven or
eight years ago he coined the happy
phrase "embalmed beef" IL Is true
that he did not make much progress.

Of his time. He was so far ahead OF
IT, indeed, that 1t has taken us seven
years to get abreast of him. Mr.. Sim
clair has done much, and President
Roosevelt has forced the fighting in
his usual vigorous style. But 1t was
Gen. Miles who led the assault, and
made the first breach in the walls OF
Packingtown. Honor to whom honor
Is due. Here's to the general!-In-

June gives promise of being a rec
ord-breaker in the building line. Since
June / permits to the number of 4O1
have been issued for Improvements
valued at $s5O,931. This is an advance
of s75,6S1 in valuation over the similar
period Of last year. and at this rate
June will be a banner month. Real
estate investments are larger and
more universal than. ever, and every
portion OF the city is beginning to feel
the advantages of improvement. The
city is growing rapidly in all direc-
tions and business is expanding to an
extent not known hitherto. In short
Los Angeles is still In the midst Of
profound prosperity.
