SPIN[LESS CATCUS
STRICKEN OFF MENU
Chefs Fail to Please GOurmands
With Luther Burbank's
Creation


The gourmands of San Francisco high
life find no delight in the spineless
cactus of Luther Burbank, the horti-
cultural wizard Of Santa Rosa, and as
a result of their disapproval the
maitres d'hotel of the Fairmont and
ST. Francis have removed the new Gre
alton from the menu.
Two months ago the Burbank prod
uct excited the appetite of the curious
seekers after something different to
tickle the palate. The chefs of the
fashionable cafes of the city were put
10 the test. Cactus was served as
breakfast food with cream. 1t was
made into soup and with mayOnnaise
served as a salad.
But tickle society would have none
Of it. It was tried in place of grape
fruit and found to be lacking. All
the culinary art of a $4,000 chef could
not make the gourmands forget their
lobster and shrimp salad, and the oXtail
and mock turtle soup placed it in a
position of absolute ostracism from the
tables of the favored. Its death knell
was sounded. 1t was decreed hors de
societe.
And SO. the yellow potato shaped
fruit with strange absence of taste,
except a Renaissance of pumpkin, has
been relegated TO things that were.
Although spineless and thornless, it
has stung many curious seeker after
the good things of the earth. 1t was
properly introduced, but didn't make
good.

A Bit of History.

Every industry has its pioneer days and
il is during these struggling times that its
worth and merit are tested. The early his
tory of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy shows
that, except in point of merit, it had no more
hope Of success than other similar prepara.
tions, which we're started at about the same
time. but were never known outside of their
own locality and have long since ceased TO
be manufactured. Step by step each sue
cessive year as its superior excellence be-
comes more widely known it has been grad
ually gaining in favor. Taken first, per-
haps, on trial BY some family, who found
il good, it was recommended by them to
neighbor; they in turn passed il on to other
friends and for over thiriy-fye years It's rep
utation has in this manner been spreading
until il has reached the utmost corners of
the earth. Science and advanced medical
authority during all this time have failed to
produce better remedy for coughs, colds
and Group and today Chamberlains Cough
Remedy is enjoying the largest sale of any
similar preparation on the market. This
success can be attributed to no other cause
than its sterling worth. No matter how
much prominence an article may receive
through the medium of advertising, 1t must
be Trustworthy to hold the confidence of the
public In thousands of homes this remedy
is the main reliance of parents in attacks Of
Group. Not only does it always give prompt
relief, but it is SO pleasant to take that chill
dren like it, and it contains nothing that 10
"a any way injurious.

Entering the palatial home of John
A. Britton, gas magnate, at 1859 Clay
street, at dusk last night through a
front window in the second story, a
daring burglar robbed the apartments
of Mrs. Britton of jewelry valued at
$500. The intruder left no clew upon
which the police can work. He man
aged to scale the front wall of the
mansion unseen while the Britton fam
lily was at dinner.
Mrs. John A. Britton visited her
apartments after dinner and found the
place in topsy turvy condition Bu-
reau drawers had been taken from
their places, the contents strewn over
the floor and every article of value
stolen. The burglar entered an ad-
joining room, but could find nothing
to please his exquisite taste.
An open window, the sill of which
was spattered with mud, told the story
of the thiefs mode of entrance and
escape. Footprints in the newly made
garden surrounding the residence added
another ValueleSS circumstance to the
marauders visit
The police were notified of the rob
berry by John A. Britton, who, upon
learning the details from his wife,
rushed to the police station in his auto
mobile. Detectives Bunner and Freel
accompanied Britton to his home and
after an investigation of the premises
could find no clew upon which to begin
a search for the burglar.

RECOMMENDS DREDGING
MARE ISLAND STRAIT
Engineers Favor Expenditure of
SI,767,000 on Important
improvements

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-The report
of the board of the army and navy
engineers appointed by order of the
president to investigate and recommend
improvements by which the channel
leading to the Mare island navy yard
can be maintained at a depth of 80 feet
was submitted 10 congress today by
the secretary of the navy.
Former Secretary Metcalf. in Feb
ruary of last year. reported to the
president that the situation regarding
the docking and repair facilities for a
battleship fleet on the Pacific coast
was serious, so far as 1T related to the
maintenance of our ships on that coast
The recommendations made by the
board are that the Mare island strait
be dredged to a 80 foot depth with a
width varing from 400 to 1000 feet
that the dikes within the, strait and
at the lower end of Mare island be ex-
tended: that the channel in San Pablo
bay be dredged TO a width of 500 feet
and depth of 80 feet
These Improvements. it is estimated
will cost S1.767. 600, including q dredge
and not including s125,000 per annum
to maintain them.
