The Golden West
Ry GARDNER MACK.

While the native son Of the Golden west

portunities of the butcher and the

a native son and go to work-the ma
tive daughter continues to glorify the
atmosphere wherever she might happen
to be just occupying the portion of 1t.
One of the things that must have
spurred Burbank to his wonderful
achievements was a desire to make the
flora of California duplicate the achieve
ments Of its fair fauna. The women OF
the golden State have been accomplish
ing things ever since there was such a
thing as a woman In the State, and their
record Of accomplishment has gone 80
Tar that It has ceased even to be as
tonishing.
For instance take the case of Lillian
Concord, the youthful prima donna
who comes to the National Theater
next week as a member of the Aborn
Company, to sing the leading role In
The Red Widow" Lillian Concord
qualified for this particular part in
three days-qualified for It's so surely
and completely that when she played
the part after that three days &C
ouaintance in a company that had been
rehearsing It for seven weeks. she Has
easily the star of the production, and
was the only one who knew her lines
and her music and the lines and music
Of all the people who played any scenes
with her!
Lillian concord Is about as fine a sam.

Like most Of the products Of her ma.
tive State. she hurried across the border
as soon as she reached the point where
she could be called a finished product
and took course at the Tniversit,

, OF the fact that she had voice, and
determined to cultivate It. The best

sided In Europe, and to Europe there
fore, she went. She put In several
years with vocal teachers in Europe,

The story told yesterday by Mrs.
Mary Gibson Of S22 Main street, Gin.

II have had catarrh ever since child
hood" said Mrs. Gibson. AT last it
became unbearable. I had no faith in
any proprietary medicine but, having
failed to find relief I turned to 1t at
last. I selected Tanlac because It was
admittedly the best and I considered
that if any advertised remedy could
help me Tanlac would be the one.
Il had constant fits Of choking and
coughing because Of the secretions Of
mucous. I would awake four or five
times a night because Of the choking
sensations. Rarely did l ever get a
good nights rest.
Wnen l decided 10 take remedy
my sister urged me to take Tanlac. l
have used two bottles and Tanlac has
helped me SO much that just want
to tell every one what it has done for
me. My catarrh is SO much better.
The choking and coughing have stop

sense of taste and smell that was
practically gone has returned. My APP

better in every way. l recommend

Catarrh is the great American all

kidneys is the most frequent cause Of
dyspepsia and Bright's disease. It
often leads to deafness and the lung

tarrhal inflammation passing through
the bronchial tubes.
Tanlac was designed especially to
combat catarrh. 1t is being introduced

are spread easily by dogs. The dog which
crosses an infected farm may easily carry in the
dirt on its feet the deadly virus and spread it to
the cattle and hog herds on other farms.
In recent bulletin the department points out
that rabies, hydatid, ringworm, favus, double
pored tapeworm, roundworm and tongueworm
are often conveyed to human beings through
dogs. It also is asserted that dogs help neas and
ticks in transmitting bubonic plague or the
deadly spotted fever.
The department urges that dogs be taught to
stay at home. It insists that dogs ought be
bathed frequently if they are allowed access to
the houses. dirty dog ought not be allowed the
freedom of the house, as it is constant source
of danger.
