Canyons of Southern California at Times Furnish SpectacIes Nothing
 Short of Remarkable.

The spectacle of rain, fire and flood all occurring at the same time, is not an unusual sight in some of the can yons near Los Angeles, says the Scien- tific American. The most notable eX- ample is near Santa Monica, which is OF the southern coast of California. The precipitous sides of the canyons debauching into the Pacific ocean in that vicinity are composed of clay and shale. Whenever rain falls on these rocks, great clouds of steam rise from the canyons. The canyon crests and faces are crowned by vitriied rock burned a dull red.
 It is reported by the early histS- rians that when the Mission fathers visited this region 15O 7"n the natives avoided these y claimed that these mystel. ~-' ms were the abode of evil spirits anu the Indians could not be induced to guide the priests to their vicinity.
 Actual flame has also been reported in one of these canyons. Hence the occasional newspaper accounts of ac- tive 'volcanoes" near the coast of Cal ffornia. The phenomena are evident ly due to fires in the petroleum-bear- ine shales which crop out in these re- eiens The cause of the fires is un- certain. They may be started by light ng or they may be case of sponta- neous combustion.

 HABIT

Ben Franklin is our great example of thrift. He wrote more on it and wrote it better than any other man we know. He began practicing thrift when he was 12 years of age, and he prac- ticed it and wrote on it all his life. He became the richest man in Amer ica in his day, richest not only in money but in health, brains, sanity. good cheer, influence. He was a scien- tist, a business man, a inguist, diplo- mat and philosopher. He always paid his way. He founded the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania, founded the first public library in America, organized an insurance company, pretty nearly cap tured the lightnings, invented spec tacles, manufactured the first cook stove, went to France and borrowed money on which Washington fought the War of the Revolution: and the basis of all the strength and excellence of Benjamin Franklin lay in the fact that very early in life he acquired the habit of thrift.
 Thrift is a habit. A habit is thing you do unconsciously or auto matically without thought. We are ruled by our habits. When habits are young they are like lion cubs, soft, fluffy funny frolicson little animals. They grow day by day. Eventually they rule you. Choose ye this day the habit ye would have rule over you. The habit of thrift is simpl..- the habit which dictates that you shall earn more than you spend. In other words, thrift is the habit that provides that you spend less than you earn. Take your choice. .'-E1bert Hubbard. Start now-Buy -W.SS.

Had a Wide Use.

Unlike the diamond and the ruby, the emerald appeared to have been widely used, according to ancient and medieval writers, for useful as well as for ornamental receptacles. Drink ing cups cut from the gem appeared to be the popular forms. Of some of these receptacles if was claimed that they possessed the magic quality of turning water poured into them into a pleasing drink with an eXhilarating kick, perhaps mint julep, that would doubtless, if they could be found. give them priceless value in the Land of tne Free and the Home of the Brave, and instead of being June jewel. the emerald would be the peerless gem of every month in the year.

FIRE INSURANCE AGENTS OBJ
JECT TO INSURANCE RATES

Fire insurance agents in Ken
lucky are objecting to the new rates
established by the Kentucky Actur-
lal Bureau on hogshead tobacco in
storage. During the latter part of
February the bureau cut the rate
about 20 per cent and made it retro
active to November 20.
Most of the hogshead tobacco in
storage is owned by the American
Tobacco Company, which, previous
to the new rates, had been insuring
it largely with unauthorized compa-
mics. The John Page Company, an
Eastern concern, agreed to take
over the insurance for the American
Tobacco Company provided the
company could get the rate reduced
in this State, which was done
through the Acturial Bureau.
Insurance agents and the insur-
ance department took the question
UP with Attorney General Charles
L. Dawson on the grounds that be-
fore new rates can be established
they must be published and that the
Acturial Bureau must give Is days
notice of such new rates before they
go into effect.
They contend further that the
policy adopted by the Acturial Bu-
reau in establishing the new rates
on hogshead tobacco in storage opens
way for discrimination. Attorney
General Dawson will give his Opin-
ion within the next few days.

part of March. Complaints were
common during that period. Bad
colds, la grippe, and other forms of
weakening sickness were reported
everywhere.
AS result of these things thous
ands of men and women are weak
and run down and it is believed that
the need of Strengthening, health
building spring tonic is more gen
eral this year than ever before in
history.
VOla-Tonic, Builder of Strength"

pie as spring tonic and is what
countless other men and women
need.
Tonic invigOrates the entire
system and is wonderful strength
builder. Vola-TOnic starts it's work
by bringing a normal, healthy ap-
petite aid putting the digestive Or
CANS and bowels in good condition.

ening nutrition from food to build
I'D and enrich the blood and to nOur-
ish organs and tissues of the body.
Vola-Tonic also soothes the nerves
and permits sound, energy-restoring
sleep every night. AS result, full
normal strength and health soon
comes to the weakened, run down
man or woman. ~

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT
BE CURED

By local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure catarrhal deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedy. Catarrh-
al Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining OF
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result. Unless the inflamma-
ton can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases of deafness are caused
by catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
