No other medicine for woman's ills
has received such widespread and un-
qualified endorsement. No other med
icine we know of has such record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia e..
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, tibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change OF life.
It costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,
as Mrs Barclay says, it is "worth noun.

 A sound like that of wind in the tops of forest trees came out of the east, passed overhead and died away down the river. It seemed to be made by something passing low and near but the men could see nothing above their heads in the dark gray sky.
 "Mallards going to Salton Sea. Not flying high either wonder if the night flight of ducks isn't the simple explanation of old superstitions about the passing of the death angel, the riding of witches through the air and the like.

Money-Making M Clean Ways
By JOHN S. McGRoARTY

l do a good deal of wandering up and down the golden stretches of Cal ifernia, and wherever I go the thing that seems to possess every man is the desire to make money. The talk is always on that line and differs only with the locality in which one hap pens to be. In the mining country the talk is, of course, about lodges and veins, and every kind of hole in the ground; east of Los Angeles it is groves and orchards; in the San Joaquin it is wheat and raisins; Santa Clara talks prunes; in the big towns it is corner lots Also in the big towns it is schemes" The big towns are the liars of the parasites the fel- lows who are eternally trying to un- load nothing for something on the fellow who wants to secure something for nothing. That these parasites live and thrive is un- doubtedly true, but how they do it is still the same deep mystery to me that it has always been.
 When I came to Imperial Valley the talk was again on the subject of making money Everywhere went heard it-on the trains, in the streets of the towns, in the lobbies of the hotels and away out on the wide ronooc of 4ba farpnc ond ronobaO But the talk had better tang to it here than almost anywhere else that 1 had wandered It did not grate so harshly on the ear; it had to it sound that did not offend the man who thinks there is something else in the world besides money, and who would rather spend his day with run ming waters, green fields, blue skies and the purple of the sunset hills than chasing dollars. It may seem a fool ish thing to say, and yet there are some people in the world like that. They are to be pitied, I know, and yet life would be monotonous were we all cast in the same mould.
 The reason the talk of money-mak- ing sounded so good to me in the Im- perial Valley was that the people here are producers. The way they pro- pose to acquire wealth is by making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before, by making the des- ert blossom as the rose, to grow al- falfa, barley, cattle, sheep, and pigs if you please-in order that the world may have something every day for

Submarine Sport

Thirty fathoms below the level of the sea, two men in a boat sat in the dark with guns in hand. One of them laid down his gun, filled a pipe and struck a match. AS he cupped his hand to shelter the flame and was about to bring the match over the pipe bowl, the other man spoke sharp ly. Look out! To your left!'
 The match dropped, the man seized his gun and swung to the left, and then he laughed quietly. Too close and too fast. That was teal, and he was sure going somewhere. Would have hit me in the head if he hadn't swerved. Not much chance to get

 The mudhen, the sandhill crane and the aquatic birds not classed as game will always be here and in increasing numbers, but the years of great duck flights are numbered in Imperial Val ley. Twenty-Five years ago ducks and geese were as numerous in the Sacra- mento Valley as they are now in this region, and it is a fact often cited that in those days it cost Dr. Glenn $lO,OO0 year to drive them out of his wheat field in Colusa. Ranchers, mar ket hunters and sportsmen have re- duced the focks in the Sacramento marshes to countable proportions, and unless the game laws shall be im- proved and observed, and marketing of game forbidden and the bag limit reduced to some reasonable number fifteen is enough for sportsman submarine shooting in the desert will not last indefinitely,

Morning on the desert is a won drous thing to see. The first glim- mer of light that filters through the slowly opening portals of the east gives strange, incredible form to the shapeless shadows of the night. It stills the shrill ululations of the yode- ling coyote, and that "barefooted friar in orders of gray" glides into the dark and fades as a ghost at cock crow. Gentle and faint as the sigh of a sleeping babe, the first breath of morning wind caresses the face of the desert and whispers to it's little peo- pie that the sun is coming and it is time to awake. Heralds of the dawn fling their rose colored banners across the eastern sky. dark cloud masses show edges of gold, the vaulted dome of the heavens gleams silver grey, and

ing over the Picacho, and a whisper of wind ran through the rustling jules in which the boat was concealed. The men stood up, their shoulders level with the tops of the jules, and faced the east, looking up the river, alert and intent with guns at the ready" A small, black spot suddenly darted across the light, the twenty-bore went swiftly to the shoulder and instantly cracked, swinging to the left, and a second later there was a splash in the water behind the jules.
 Hear that?" asked the one who had fired. T seem to have made a noise like man killing a teal"

formless- mountain walls encircling the plain take form and color and sharply define their peaks.
 Wild things of the air feel the stir of morning first and are on the wing while the groundlings are yet sleeping in the shadows. With faint swish of wings company of water fowl passes swiftly overhead, and in a moment squadrons, regiments, brigades of ducks are streaming across the sky, silhouetted black against silver and gold winging their way to the waters of the Salton Sea.

of perhaps a hundred widgeon, their wings whistling, came almost directly toward them, swerved a little and mounted almost out of range. The men arose and fired, and two birds came tumbling out of the sky. Two lucky shots. One of the victims for sure was two yards behind the bird the gunner meant to hit
 With the coming up of the sun the flight of smaller bands began, and the guns were kept busy for half an hour. Thousands passed high out of range, but to the right and left and straight ahead streamed sprig, teal, spoonbills and mallard, flying low and offering all the shots the greediest gunner could ask. It was quick, diff ficult shooting, for the birds were us- ually flying at full speed, not "set- ting up" to alight among decoys. Now and then a cross flight gave easier shots and reconciled the gunners to many misses of head-on ducks.
 Shortly after sunrise the flight slackened and ceased.
 q reckon it's all over" said one of the men, putting down his gun and preparing for smoke.
 Not all. We've time now to gather up the dead birds, and then we'll get back into the blind and wait for the second edition. The ranchers will get out to their ditches at about half past seven or eight, and they will stir up the ducks that have been eating their barley all night. There will be another flight of teal and sprigs be- fore nine o'clock, and the birds will be coming in low to these pools. Here is where we get the limit"
 It was even so, and at nine the two pulled their boat back to the camp landing, carrying loads of game and appetites for coffee and flapjacks that pressed the limit. Q
 Before the work of reclamation be- gan, the desert was grim, arid waste summed by all living things but those that creep and crawl. When the water came, the birds saw it from afar and followed man in his pio- neering. Hundreds of square miles of alfalfa, grain and trees have made the land habitable to man and bird and beast, and the wild fowl have found it a land of good feeding and have taken it for their own
 Many species of duck make a win ter resort of Imperial Valley from Saton Sea to the Gulf of California, sprig, green wing teal and mallard being the most numerous, and they all grow fat and superlatively edible on the barley and various wild grasses.

The rosy glow of dawn now flush ed all the eastern sky, and the pale gray light of morning began to suf- fuse the air and give credible shape to formless blots of shadow that might have been anything but clumps of jules in the overflow of the Ala mo between vertical banks marking the path of the Colorado's food when 1t left it's channel and rushed madly down the steep places into Salton Sea.
 Here a shallow arroyo in the desert plain had been cut by the runaway river fifty feet deep and mile wide, and through the flat, swampy bot tom winds the Alamo, carrying the waste waters of Imperial Valleys ir- rigation canals. Tules, grasses, wild rice and willows have sprung up in the fertile silt, and here the wild fowl find lagoons, pools and sheltered ponds in which to rest after nights spent in devastating the barley fields of desert farmers.
 The men in the boat waited and watched, and presently a long, dark line showed against the morning sky. It seemed at first a thin streak of cloud, but it moved steadily and rap idly, and it grew more distinct as the seconds passed.
 For the love of the Lord!" mur- mered one, almost in awe. That cloud is a band of ducks. I didn't know there were so many ducks in the world'
 The advancing cloud grew 'blacker and more distinct, and as it approach ed it was seen to be a series of ranks like those of an army, accurately aligned and dressed, with diagonal lines here and there between the ranks, something like the meshes of a net It came swiftly, and the sound of rushing wings preceded it by a mile or more. The flight passed high overhead, out of rifles shot apparent ly. The right wing of the army seemed to be about a mile to the north of the river bank. The left wing was so far to the. south that it simply faded from sight. Five miles of the front, perhaps, could be dis cerned. The numbers of that army could not even be guessed. A little interlacing band between the ranks, partly counted and the rest estimated in blocks by the eye, figured up about 800, and that was only corporals squad
 Rank after rank the army swept on to the northwest, and then for a space the sky was empty.
 Here comes band of widgeon flying low. Get ready"

 now they propose also to grow cotton
 in order that the world may have
 something to wear, and a string to tie it with, towels and household cloths, oil and meal and the various things that spring from earth to light and air when a seed of cotton is sown in the
 soil
 It seems to me that if the gods were to so change my nature that I would
 be seized with the desire to make money-which may the same gods for bid-I would want to make it as the people of Imperial Valley are making it. 1 would want to gather my hoard from the soil-from the bosom of my mother, the earth. I think I should feel better about dollar in my pocket that 1 had secured in that way than though I had trundled it out of deal in stocks, flyer in the pit, at poker or by squatting on my launches till the unearned increment came along to fatten me while I slept or smoked my pipe or talked politics-which are the most popular methods of wasting a lifetime.
 What I found in Imperial Valley was that every man was concentrating his mental and physical energy not on how to "beat the game" but how to make a living and some money be-
 ides from the land. There are no par asites in Imperial Valley. It is com munity of producers From the Salton Sea to the Mexican boundary line the valley is one great panorama of farms and ranches and gardens. The towns are merely ncidental-necessary az gregatioEs ni trading stations, Con- sequently, they are nice towns, clean and wholesome and substantial as towns are apt to be when called into being by a reason so real as the ne- cessities of the soil. Nor did I find a desire or an intention on the part of the people to build great cities in Imperial Valley. They are actuated by much more important and sane desire-the desire to build farms.
 I could not help but feel as I passed from place to place in this great Valley of the Sun that the man who has cast his lot in it has every cause to con- graduate himself, to be satisfied and to respect himself. His battle is with the sofia friendly adversary that loves to yield. His work is with sun and water and growing things. His reward is the bursting granary, the sleek and fattened herd, the homeward vending flock. It is true that he can not hope always to escape disappoint- ment or to meet never with failure But he is so armored with the strength he has created and so allied with na- lures constant forces that his dis appointments cannot last and his fail ures will be overcome.
