FRISCO'S BIG MOVEMENT
FOR EXTERMINATING DISEASE
Especial to The sentinel.)

San Francisco, Feb. 1S.-A state
ment has been issued by the Citizens s
health committee in which it said:
San Francisco has undertaken. by
popular effort, the greatest sanitary
movement ever inaugurated in any
municipality in the United States.
Aroused by exaggerated and ignor-
ant reports that the city of the Col
den Gate is plague ridden, everybody
in the city has enlisted in a general
cleaning up movement. which is de-
signed to thoroughly exterminate
rats, repair sewers and compel the
to observe sanitary and
garbage ordinances. The merchants
last week held a general meeting
and decided to subscribe 100000
and to employ $50 men for sanitary

BIG ORCHARD VALUES.
j. !. + + !. i. i. + +++++4 !

Some of the western slope land is
selling at fancy prices. At Palisades
small tracts of orchards are selling
as high as $4,000 an acre. 1t looks
like high price, but when the pro-
duct of such land brings $500 or
SC an acre in single year it doesn't
seem so big.
Nevertheless, as we suggested the
other day, we know of no safer or
better occupation for a young man,
who knows how, than to buy raw
land and improve it with orchards.
To be sure he will be obliged to wait
four or five years for his returns,
but at present prices he will be rich
ly repaid for his wait. There are
many people coming to Colorado,
like those who go to California, who
do not want to sit down and wait for
the orchards to grow. They have the
price ard are ready to pay.-Colo-

SOME CURIOUS FACTS.

columbus Press Post.)

On an average. thirty-one people
lose their lives yearly by accidents in
the Alps. For feat of dexterity
and nerve it would be difficult to
surpass that of the Bosejesman of
South Africa, who walks quietly up
to a puff adder and deliberately sets
his bare foot on it's neck. In its
struggles to escape and attempts to
bite its assailant the poison gland
secretes a large amount of venom.
This is just what the Bosjesman
wants. Killing the snake, he eats the
body and uses the poison for his
arrows.
The latest use of the telephone
is in locating shoals of fish. The
electric apparatus is a German pat
ent. A microphone, inclosed in a
water-tight case, connected with an
electric battery and telephone, is low
cred into the water. So long as the
telephone hangs free no sound is
heard. but on its coming into contact
with a shoal of fish the constant
tapping of the fish against the micro
phone case produces a series OF
sounds which at once betray their
presence. The cord attached to the
microphone is marked, SO that the
exact depth of the shoal Is desig-
mated.
The title lieutenants comes from
words signifying holding the place."
Thus. lieutenant colonel holds the
place of the latter, and lieutenant
holds the place of a captain.
In the manufacture of knives the
division of labor has been carried to
such an extent that one knife is
handled by seventy different artisans
from the moment the blade Is forged
until the instrument Is finished for
the market.

DO WE LIVE TOO HIGH?

1t is wages versus large ideas. and
not the increased cost of provisions
that makes the average householder
find it difficult to make both ends
meet today, Mrs. Ellen H. Richards
of Boston said. in a lecture yester-
day upon the "Cost of Living and
How to Control It," at the Teachers
College. She told of a man whose
wife learned to talk about his salary
instead of his wages, says the New
York Times. when we had wages"
he said, there was no difficulty in
living within them, but with a sal
ary We spent everything"
People spend more money than
they used to-" said Mrs Richards,
'and one reason is that we have
more useful things. like the bath
room, and it is well to be sanitary.
They say the cost of living within
the past 80 years has increased 40
or SO per cent, but 1 contend that it
is not SO. 1t is our idea of living
that has increased.
There has been great change in
what We women think we need, in
the price of hats and gloves
and gowns. Our grandmothers
women of comfortable means
felt that they were doing we'll when
they had three gowns, and a little
further back the men might have
one elaborate suit of clothes; but
they did not think it was necessary
to have one for the morning, one for
the afternoon and one for the ev-
ening.
"If you divide your income so that
food will cost one-fourth, rent an
other, and operating expenses one
fourth more, there will be left one
fourth for the region of choice
There is nothing that makes one feel
so poverty stricken as not to be able
to do something that We really wish.
With money for that region of choice
we get what we most wish-it may
be books, travel, or even handsome
gowns-but something that we real
ly desire. If a family lives up to
its entire income, there is nothing
l class physicians, medicines, dent
lists. and travel for health as fines
that We have to pay for neglect of
natures laws.
"The average family of moderate
income, unless there is an arrange
ment to save something for the fu-
ture or something very much want
ed, spends it all. The woman's larg-
est expenses are usually sundries.
Men have temptations to spend but
not as the women do, with the mar
ket, the bargain counter, and the
house for which to provide, though
most houses have three times too
much in them. Women are not al
ways wise spenders."

THE JEWELRY AUCTION.

People always have money when
they can get bargain. 1t is sur
prising the amount of goods pur-
chased at the great Primrose auc-
tion sale of diamonds, jewelry and
silverware.
The afternoon and evening sales
have attracted hundreds of people
since the auction began, who have
bought literally of the splendid bar
gains being offered.
The auction sale will continue per-
haps the balance of the week, hard
ly any longer. To those who would
secure table furnishings in silver
ware, cut glass and special pieces,
no better opportunity will be offered
than the auction sale now being con-
