California Promotion
Committee Report

Reports received by the California
Promotion Committee from the gold
mining districts, indicate great activ-
ity, with heavy output. California
has given to the world, since gold was
discovered in the state, total of
more than, 81, 500, 600, 600 worth of the
metal, and indications are that there
will be greater Developments than ever
with modern methods that are now
being used in all the mining dis
tricts. During the month just past
there has been increased inquiry into
mining opportunities. In November,
California gold mines produced over
81, 800, 600.
Railroad building continues, both
in steam and electric lines, and the
demand for labor shows no slacken-
ing. In manufacturing lines the re-
ports show continued prosperity.
All crops have been harvested, and
the returns have been Eetter than was
expected. harvesting of the citrus
crop has begun. and already many
carloads have gone to EasternImarkets
from points in the interior valley.
From returns made by railroads,
more than 100000 people came to
California on colonists' rates during
the two seasons of 1907. these new
settlers have Eeen distributed all over
the state, and their coming has been
of material help in the subdivision of
large tracts of land. Reports received
by the committee from its eastern
affiliations indicate that there is a
very general inquiry about California
from prospective settlers.

A Pretty Sight

Last Sunday four of our town boys
secured some whiskey in some way.
and before they had finished they
had become drunken than lords. They
went up on the hills back of town,
and passed the time riding COWS, and
various other stunts. When they
came back totown couple of them
we're pretty badly cut up. as the re-
suit of falling of the animals. 1t is
more than likely that the boys stole
the whiskey, but some one wants to
keep a closer eye on these lads, for
they are all under age.
From the school law of California

delivers to any minor child, male or
female, under age of eighteen years.
any Intoxicating drinks in any
quantity whatsoever, or who. as pro-
prietor or manager of any saloon or
public house where Intoxicating
liquors are sold, permits any minor
child under the age of eighteen years.
to visit said saloon or pubic house
where Intoxicating liquors are sold,
shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and
shall upon the conviction thereof,
be punished by a fine of not more
than three hundred dollars. or by
Imprisonment in the county Jail for a
period not exceeding Que hundred
and fifty days, or by both fine and
Imprisonment; provided that this act
shall not apply to the parents of such

1t is also misdemeanor punishable

Red Berries
Abundant Here

Some parts of the state are COM
planning that there is a scarcity of
the red berry this year, that is that
they are not so plentiful as they
we're last. But in this section they
are more plentiful if anything. Even
before the first of October the berries
we're in full bloom. The weather has
been ideal this year for tramping
over the hills in search Of them, and
every day or two some one would go
out and bring in big bunch.
What has been scarce this year is
the mushroom. Usually they appear
after he first good rain, but as yet we
have had no rain to speak of.
Numerous people went out after each
rain, but as yet we have failed to
hear of anyone finding very many.
Probably after this rain they may
come up, though it is rather late.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
contain Mercury

as mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the

the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure. manufac-

No Fires to Cook Their Turkeys.

Two hundred thousand people in
twenty Missouri towns awoke on Nov.
% last to learn that there was no fuel
with which to cook their Thanksgiving
turkeys. The natural gas, the only
fuel used in this part of the state, was
unobtainable owing to the bursting OF
a sixteen inch main at Altamont. Kan.
Discarded stoves were dragged from
cellars and storage rooms. and there
was a scramble for fuel. In most of
the homes the turkeys were served ex-
ceedingly rare.

BILE. He had been angry when she had
taken the position in the store. He
was making SIS a week. with promo
ton Just ahead. He wanted her to
stay at home and study homemaking
from her own capable mother, but Mel
lie wanted to earn enough money for
her little trousseau. Tom had said
openly that he hated her to pay the
high price Of standing day after day on
her feet in the lily ventilated, noisy
store. Secretly he had rather feared
the influence of money making on this
girl. who had always lived the shelter
ed home life. Perhaps she would not
be satisfied later on to give up her own
income and share his in modest
home.
But something more dangerous than
the mere effect of an independent in
come had entered Nelie's life that day.
The representative of big wholesale
house had asked the head of stock I'M
der whom Nellie worked to make up q
luncheon party of four Any girl she
asked would be agreeable, and he had
an out of town man he wanted to en-
terrain.
1t was Nellie'S first experience In
fashionable cafe, with It's myriad mir
rors, soft shod walters, sparkling foun-
tains and flower decked tables. The
dainty cookery, the well chosen wines,
the general air of prosperity and ease
which enveloped her during the brief
hour had created a new unrest In her
mind, and the men had rounded Out
the meal by inviting the two girls to
go to the theater the next night.
/ Nellie had fairly jumped at the sug-
| gestion Theater on Thanksgiving
night? Why, that was the time when
folks stayed at home. She knew what
would happen In her own home. Tom
and his mother would come to dinner,
and in the dusk Tom would take his
mother to their tiny fiat FIVE blocks
away and then come back for a two
hour visit with her. Tom always went
home early because he had to be at
the shop every morning at 1880.
The theater and afterward supper
just like this luncheon! The tiny parlor
at home turned dingy and dull by com
parison. When she and Tom went to
the theater which was rarely enough
they sat In the upper gallery and di
vided their attention between the
boxes and the stage, the play and the
wonderfully gowned women on the
floor below.
And what was that Jennie Mills had
said? With her figure she might veal
such gowns, eat such luncheons every
day-be the real thing
She worked during the afternoon like
girl In a daze. Customers found
fault with her. and the foorwalkel
