A Lost Dollar.

A missionary bishop told at dinner
in New York. according to the sun,
this story about F. Marion Crawford,
the famous novelist:
"Mr. Crawford went to school," he
said, ''in Concord, and one day he was
taken to call at Concord clergyman's.
The clergyman had missionary box
on his drawing room table, and, time
hanging heavily on the boys hands, he
amused himself with trying whether a
silver dollar-it was all the money he
had in the world, and he had converted
1t into that gigantic coin for safety
would go into the slit in the boxs top.
1t was a close fit, but unfortunately 1t
did go, and the coin slipped out Of the
embryo authors fingers, There was a
terrible crash of silver falling among
the coppers, and then the boy, as the
novelists say, knew no more When
he came to himself he found the clergy
man and his family in raptures over
his generosity"

Good In EVERYTHING.

The late Sir Wilfred Lawson, well
known as an English temperance re-
former as well as wit, invariably
took cheerful view Of life and con-
duct. In conversation with him one
day an ardent person rallied forcibly
against the practice Of christening
vessels with champagne before being
launched. Sir Wilfred did not alto
gether agree and said good temper
ance lesson might be learned from the
practice.
"How can that be?" demanded the
other.
"Well," replied the baronet, "after
the first taste Of wine the ship takes
to water and sticks to 1t ever after"

You Could Slip OF the EDGE,

There was time-centurles ago, Of
course-when the learned men Of the
world renlly thought that the world
was sQuare-not merely fiat, but that
1t was a cube. The primitive geogra-
pliers of Egypt, Assyria and China all
taught that the world was a square
plane" One of the most curious dis
coverles ever made il Central America
concerning Toltec beliefs, symbols, etc,
is that they also had similar idea
concerning the form Of what we now
speak of as the "globe." A writer on
the discoveries made among the monu-
mental ruins Of that country says,
"They (meanlng the Peruvians, Toltecs
and Quiches) believed the world to be
a cube, suspended from the heavens
by cords Of gold fastened to each Of
its corners"

The
General Demand

Of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; a laxative which physi-
clans could sanction for family use
because Its component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial in effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
In action.
In supplying that demand with its
excellent combination Of Syrup Of
Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for its remarkable
success.
That Is one Of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA Is
given the preference by the Well
Informed. To get its beneficial effects
always buy the genulne-manufac-
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only, and for sale by all leading
druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

We notice in quarters tendency to stir up opposl-
ton the reelection of Geo. c. Perkins United States
Senator One republican members of the legislature
are out against him. and publishing screeds in the Roosevelt
league organs in the hope of defeating him Indeed it is
limited that combination with democrats will be attempted
with this object i'll view. Anything beat Perkins, is the
cry This scheme is likely amount to anything beyond
branding these boilers mugwumps of the sapps order
By the way the from this district A. Caminnett
when seeking election stated that he would be governed by
the wishes of the majority of the voters of his district cast
ing his for United States Senator and that he would
take steps by side unofficial ballot ascertain the wishes
of the people this respect What has become of this plan
We have heard nothing about since the election two years
ago. and have heard that the informal voting scheme
carried into effect Nevertheless Camnett is bound by
his words his vote regardless of his party ai
aton for the choice of the people of this senatorial district
There question that Perkins would command
overwhelming majority of votes for that position There is
practically opposition his selection far republicans
here are concerned What will Caminet do in this
aspect of affairs

Gentlemen-Some our of people ex-
pect to visit your county next Janu-
airy. 1 would like to have you send
me some printed matter descriptive of
your county. II your do not have
any such, please send me a copy of
your paper: Would prefer copy in
which you have some time printed
write-up of your county. Please
hand my address to some real estate
agent, l would like list of his farms
and fruit lands. | enclose stamps.
j. S. Daniels,
In answer to this request, and all
requests of a SIMILAR nature, we can
only send copy of the Ledger, iu
which is published every week for
the benefit of homeseekers a column
article descriptive of Amador county.
This is the sum total of literature
available for this purpose. While
other counties have scattered broad
cast thousands of copies of illustrated
pamphlets, giving an elaborate de-
scription of the advantages of their
respective sections, Amador has done
absolutely nothing in this direction.
Is it any wonder that this county
the fairest region of the fairest state
in the Unlon-fails to attract its due
proportion of the population that is
pouring into California from less
favored portions of the United States.
The organization of local board of
trade would do much to make amends
for this lack of enterprise and home
pride.

LET US WAKE up.

1t is undeniable that the most sue
cessfnl business men are those that
make liberal and judicious use of
printers ink. A man nowadays must
advertise what he has to sell, and his
business usually grows in proportion
to his patronage of the printers. 1t
is the same with respect to counties
Those sections that persistently keep
their advantages before the home
seekers are generally the ones that
capture the settlers. The attractive
ness of the region so advertised may
be no greater, many instances net as
great, as other sections that have fail
ed to advertise their advantages, but
they get the immigrants from the
cheer force of push and enterprise.
Amador county is and always has
been very backward in this regard
We wonder why region so rich IL
natural advantages-an unequalled
climate, pleasant surroundings, and
agricultural and mineral resources
practically untouched, should remain
so little sought after by the streams
of immigrants pouring into the state
from the less favored states east of
the Rocky mountains. The truth is,
we leave intending immigrants to find
out the facts for themselves. We take
no pains to send out information to
draw them htherwards. Whereas
other portions of California take the
opposite course, and do everything
they can to attract settlers Natural.
~ the new corners make for those
sections concerning which they have
some definite and satisfactory infor-
nation rather than to places concern
ing which they have meager intorma-
ton. The lack of Amador in this
respect is every once and a while
brought strlkingly to our notice, hy
