Fruit Growers Meeting

EDITOR IsLANDER:-State Senator-elect
w. FL. Paulhamus, of Sumner, Pierce
county, held meeting at West Sound,
Decembey 7, in the interests Of the fruit
growers of the county. We very much
regret that the date of this meeting was
known for so short time that publication
in the county papers was impossible.
Word was sent about the county by postal
cards and telephone, but the wider circu-
lation by publication was wanting.
Mr.. Paulhamus spoke for an hour on the
needed legislation in favor of fruit grow
ers, told Of the scope of our markets, gave
a somewhat lengthy description of the
system and details of the shipping. graz
ing and canning business of the Puyallup
and Sumner Fruit Growers Association,
and advised the establishment of packing
houses and canneries at each of the prin-
cipal shipping points in our county.
A meeting called for the 18th at West
Sound was postponed until the END inst.
which all fruit growers in the county are
cordially invited to attend. Delegates
will be elected to meet with delegates
from other parts of the state, at the meet
ing of the State horticultural Society,
where action will be taken to federate all
the fruit growers associations of the state.
Remember the time, place and hour. De-

Atkins-Walrath

One Of the prettiest weddings
which ever took place at West Sound
was solemnized at. 10 a. m. Wednes-
day, Dec. 10, at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. II. Atkins, when their daugh-
ter Pearl was united in marriage to
Mr.. Harry p. Walrath. As the
sweet strains of the wedding march,
played by Mr.. Vetter and his son
George and accompanied by the
brides sister on the piano, floated
through the room the. bride and
groom, followed by the brides par
ents, marched into the room and
stood under a floral arch where hung
a wedding bell of white roses. Just
above was large horseshoe Of pink
carnations. The bride was dressed
in white PONCE silk, with white mitts
and slippers, and wore a necklace of
pearls. Her filmy veil was Topped
up with lilies of the valley and she
carried boquet of cream chrysan-
themums. According to the wishes
of the bride, her parents acted as
bridesmaid and bestman: her mother
being dressed in white and steel gray
The beautiful ring service was used,
Rev. S. V. Warren, of East Sound,
officiating. A dainty wedding break
fast was served, after which the
bride and groom hurried to the boat,
where they were met by a crowd of
friends who showered rice and good
wishes on the happy pair.
Mr.. Walrath purchased a ranch
here three years ago and is one of
the islands most popular young men.
Mrs. Walrath is known as one of
West Sounds most popular young
ladies.
Mr.. and Mrs. Walrath have the
good wishes of their many friends.
They received many beautiful and USE
full presents.
Those present, besides near friends
and relatives, we're Mr.. Adkins sis

shua, of Everett and Mr.. o. H. Ty-
son, of Marysville.

Bank Changes

To the patrons of the San Juan
County Bank:-Owing to the large
amount of private business atSeattle
and Everett the writer desires to be
relieved as much as possible of any
active part in the management Of
the San Juan County Bank. MIR. C.
M. Tucker, having purchased some
OF the stock of the bank, is to take
an active part in the management of
the same, and has been chosen as one
OF the directors of the bank, and has
also been made Vice President. Mr..
Tucker, having served the county of
San Juan as treasurer for eight years,
is well known by every resident of
the county, and we believe we are to
be congratulated on having him as
one of our official board. Gene C.
Gould, who has been Cashier for the
past eight years, has been advanced
to the position of President, and Van
f.. Sargent, who has been with the
bank for three years as Teller, has
been elected Cashier. The writer re-
tains his interest in the bank and is
one of the directors, but by these
changes is largely relieved from any
active supervision of the business.
The foregoing changes will all take
effect on January 1st 1907.
The writer thanks you one and all
for the generous patronage received,
and bespeaks for the new officials
continuance thereof, assuring you
that it will be appreciated by them.
With best wishes, 1 am,
Sincerely yours,
J. A. GOULD,
President.

eating OF things never designed to b
eaten, and which no one would everl
think of eating except for the fact
that they momentarily give an agree
able sensation to the tongue and pal
ate. No thought or consideration Is
given to the possible effect of these
palate-tickling substances upon the
stomach after they have entered 1t. A
gentleman once said to the writer: 81
eat mustard, pepper, and similar hot
substances because like things that
give my palate a twist" This gentle
man, with thousands Of others like
him, quite overlooked the fact that
those things that twist" the palate
are equally able to twist" the stom-
ach, the liver, the nerves, the brain
and every organ and tissue with
which they come in contact In their
journey through the body.
An unperverted palate is wish and
ever wakeful sentinel, which says
promptly to the eater, Enough"
when he has taken sufficient amount
Of nutrient material to meet the pres
ent requirements of the body.
The palate was given man, not as
an instrument of pleasure. but as
guide whereby he might select in
proper quantities food substances of
the quality suited to his needs. The
debasement of this function to the
ends of pleasure is the beginning of a
prostitution of the body which ends
only in abandonment to the gre lest
forms of selfindulgence, and tends TO
premature exhaustion of the vital re-
sources, early decay of the body's
forces and ignominious death; for no
death can be considered honorable
which is the direct consequence OF
ones own acts, or suicide. Said an
eminent French writer, Man does not
die; he kills himself"

The Home Climate for the consump-

The Home Climate for the consump- |
tive.
Change TO another, usually warm |
er, climate, was once thought to be |
the only hope for the consumptive pa
lent. At the present time, however,
here is a consensus of opinion among
he leading authorities that there Is
40 climate which has a specific cura-
live power over consumption. Many,
Including DIR. S. A. Knopf or New
York, an acknowledged expert on the
treatment of consumption, hold that
cures effected In the home climate IN
which the patients will have to live
and work after their restoration 10
health, are more lasting and assured
than cures obtained in more genial
chimes. While 1t is known that pa
tents cured in the salubrious region
Of the west have been able to return
and live in the eastern states from
whence they came, 1t is also known
that others can never leave the region
In which they recovered, for on their
return to their own state their dis
ease recurs.
Prof. Cornet OF Berlin, a writer OF
international reputation, says TO
day we rightly regard no one climate
as specific. tuberculosis occurs in the
warmth OF the south as well as in the
colder north, and upon lofty plateaus.
Recoveries, too, are seen in every
| cline"
| The following reasons are given by
the Illinois State Board Of Health why
an attempt should be made to cure a
natient at or near his own home-if II
be IA a climate not unsuitable for the
| cure OF consumption, and why be
should not be sent long distance
| from home:
Separation from friends depresses
the patient. Home sickness is
malady which often battles the physi
clan.
The expenses of the journey are
serious drain upon his resources, ant
are often incurred unnecessarily. Al
has been aptly stated by the State
| Board of Health of Maine, Many pa
tents could be well put on the road Il
recovery in their own state at cos
which would barely defray their ex
penses to and from Colorado and Arl
anna"
l'he lack of home comforts In dis
tant state, and the inability often t.
obtain proper accommodations unles
at prohibitive price, naturally handi
cap the best efforts made to cure tn
patient.
The expense of living in the state
having Specific" climates Is great
Even If his disease be cured, the pa
tient may not be able to return to liv
In his own state.
II the patient must work, he ca
find no occupation. Too many hav
preceded him.
For the wealthy patient, who ca
be surrounded by his relatives an
friends wherever he goes, a change
climate may be desirable. For tn
poor patient, change OF climate fr
quently quickens an unfaworable tie
mination of the disease.
Consumption has been cured N II
past, and is still being cured, IN II
eastern and central states. 1t Is c
ten not SO much the best climate Il
the disease as the best place for Il
consumptive.
