A GRo1EsouE BIRD.
Remarkable Assortment Of colors Of
tho Brazilian Touean.

Remarkable A8SofINnenS OF NotoFS ot
the Brazilian Touean.
The very peculiar looking Brazilian
bird, the toucan. has a body about as
big as that of a good sized parrot, but
its beak is very different and easily
its dominant feature. though this bird
is by no means lacking in bright and
striking colGrs. The toucan's beak is
half as long as its body, and it is broad
and thin and set on edge vertically,
shaped something like a blunted
scythe. with the slightly curving.
rounded edge on top and ending with
a hook point turned downward-a re-
markable beak in size and shape-and
this beak is tinted with a remarkable
assortment Of colors. purple and red
and green and yellow, while around
the beak at the head runs a line Of
black.
The eyes of the toucan are surround
ed by circles Of a bright light blue. and
on its breast, regularly outlined. is a
broad and deep expanse Of bright vel
low in size and shape in proportion to
the bird about the same as the gener-
Gus expanse of shirt front shown by a
man in evening dress with his waist
coat cut low and we'll rounded out at
the bottom, this show Of yellow being
edged with Il red line. The toucan's
body for the bulk Of it is black or a
very deep blue black, but around at
the base of the tail run two bands of
color. one rcd and one white.
1t is not Il song bird. 1t is sold as a
pet, not for children, but to adults,
and it is more often fancied by men
than by women. 1t takes $25 to $50 to
buy a toucan.ANew York Sun.

Opposed to Aiding Corporations
We are unalterably opposed to
the expenditure Of public moneys
received from the proposed bond
issue or otherwise for any improve
Inent of tide lands or water front

the channel or upon the inner

The city of Los Angeles owns only
thirty-seSen acres in the inner
harbor, and never may acquire
any other holdings upon the
Wilmington lagoon or upon the
entrance thereto north of Dead
Mans island. The Southern Pa
cific railroad, the San Pedro, Los
Angeles & Salt Lake railroad and
individuals who own the frontage
and tide lands upon the inner har-
bor and inside Dead Mans island
should not ask nor should they re-
ceive aid from the public treasury
for the improvement of their private
property.
We request the city council of
the city of Los Angeles definitely
to set forth in resolutions to be
passed the purposes for which the
proceeds of the $3O00,000 bond issue
are intended to be applied, whether
the whole or any specific part Of
such bond issue is to be used for
the construction of docks upon the
municipal property situated on the
deep sea harbor, and specifically
state in such resolutions what part
is to be expended or may be ex-
pended for the making of improve
ments inside of Dead Mans island,
in order that the voters of this
city may be definitely informed as
to whether the money received from
the bond Issue is to be devoted to
public uses or private uses.
Further resolved. That we fully
indorse and concur in the state
ments submitted to the city council
of the city of Los Angeles by the
Federated Improvement association
of Los Angeles, concerning the har-
Dor situation, submitted on the

The effect of impure and pure blood Is seen
at once the face.
Impurities fill 1t with poisons, the
flesh harbors these poisons and the
lungs cannot eliminate them as they
should.
1t needs a purifier. Stuart's Calcium
Waters give to the bloed through the
same channels as food all the strength
and stimulus necessary to remove the
impurities and to make rich corpuscles
which will feed the body or fight its
enemies.
Time was when poor blood purifiers
had to be used, such as herbs and
roots powdered minerals, etc, but
thanks to latter day achievement, the
Stuart process gives to the system the
full rich strength of Calcium Suiphide
the greatest blood purifier known te
science.
These little powerful waters are pre-
pared by one Of the most noted expert
pharmaceutical chemists In the world
and SO far as science is concerned nc
expense has been spared to make them
perfect.
They contain Quassia, Golden Sea-
ard Eucalyptus. each most powerful
aid to the blood of man.
Thousands of people use these waters
with religious zeal, and their testi-
monial evidence is an unfailing source
OF interest to one who reads it.
Melancholy marks every suffering
woman, yet one should be armed with
this knowledge and make up ones
mind to try Stuart's Calcium Waters
