The proud boast of California that it has a greater extent of coast line and vaster ranges of mountains than any other tho country is no empty one. The mountains and tho sea, tho vening plains and valleys, offer unox- ampled opportunities for recreation, and the climate leuds itself to further the aims and ambitions of one who would pass a season in the open air. As early as-the month of April, while yet the fields are covered with sheets of bloom and before the spring rains have wandering about in a fog. But -when there open to the camper such scenes AM the mountains give us, such streams as the mountain valleys afford and such fishing as the coast yields, a little thing thing like this can be borne with equanimity, As final argument in favor of this gtato as spot for feminine campers to disport, let me mention that woman has emancipated herself from the conventional garb of the city and goes especially on bloomers and divided skirts. She seems to enjoy it, too, and as horses are almost as free as water out here nearly every woman rides.

You will see little girls up to the ago of 8 or 10 running around in denim overalls. You can't tell them from boys, except by the cut of their curls and the manner in which they throw a stone.

hardly ceased, there is a stir in all the active towns and cities caused by the preparations for camping.

the Appel Clothing- company, whore- in the plaintiff was given a perpetual injunction by the lower court restrainng the defendant from advertising a certain stock of goods as bankrupt stock, the court of appeals reverses the decree and remands the case to the trial court with instructions to dissolve and dismiss the bill. "We cannot approve a practice," said Judge Wilson, "nor subscribe to doctrine which permits the exercise by the courts of the extraordinary power of injunctive relief for every wrong or infringement upon the rights of another. Such a course of procedure, if carried to its ultimate natural conclusion, would tend to entirely subvert the fundamental principle? upon which our system of laws is, founded." Iowa Woman SnflVugists. Des Moines, Oct. The annual state convention of the Women's Suffrage society will open in this city tomorrow.

It is the twenty-sixth annual meeting, and besides the regular pro- gramme there will be a mock legislature, modeled after the extra session held here last winter, when the principal opponents of suffrage will be held up to ridicule. The Weather We May Kxpect. Oct. are tho The Machines Are Far More Numerous In Gericany Than In This Country. BERIJX, Oct.

Germans are not so slow. Their inventors know a thing or two after all. They might even give us some pointers on nickel-in-the- glot machines. A machine in the Berlin rail-way stations has attracted my attention. It does away with the ticket seller and saves lots of crowding.

It is -used especially for suburban traffic. If the manager of the New York elevated 1 railway lines would adopt it, the people would shower "blessings on his head. Another machine in the railway station embodies an excellent idea. dispenses tickets to the platform from which outgoing trains take their de- partnre. If you are going to the train to see a friend off, you are ordinarily obliged to part with him in tho waiting room.

Perhaps you have business which will occupy you up to tho last moment. Then your friend will miss getting a good seat and may even get left. That is what happens frequently at the great terminal stations in the United States. But these platform tickets, which you can buy at the German stations by pushing a 3 cent piece in tho slot, will admit you to the platform. After securing his seat your friend may raise the car window or come outside and talk with you.

You do not have to say farewell until the train pulls out. One begins to wonder whether the clerks are not wasting their time in bestowing pity upon the skilled laborers thrown out of employment by the constant invention of new labor saving machinery. Perhaps the clerks will themselves need to be pitied. Master Edmund Wilson entertained a number of his little friends Saturday afternoon at hla home on Eel Biver avenue. The party was in honor of bis birthday and was greatly enjoyea Dy the juvenile guests.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, because they cannot reach the deseaeed portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and tnat is by constitutional remedies. Deafness caused by an inflamed condition of tbe COUB lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you hare a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless tue inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not bo cured by Ball's Catarrh Cure.

I have met them everywhere, whole families, plodding over the roads throughout all southern California, sunburned, healthy au6V happy, having cut Loose from the carking cares of town life, bent on seeing the natural beauties of this great and wonderful state.

The destination of many of them is. the seashore, where the horses are turned out, the van converted into a dormitory by night and a bathhouse by day, while tbe bountiful waters of the coast furnish them with unlimited sport and innumerable fish. Again, the Yosemite is the objective point of hundreds of others, where they form regular camp communities and revel in the beauties of that glorious valley almost without cost. The long period of drought, say from May till the sky is cloudless and them a protracted season of delight. I don't suppose it is always unalloyed, for, aside from the disagreeable features ol camping out (and there are some, especially if you have to do your own cooking) there is the dust.

Now, it is an opeu secret that the California roads are about the dustiest in the world. The fact that the well known expression "Get np and dust" came into vogue about the time of the first gold excitement 50 years ago seems to warrant one in the belief that it originated here. Anyway it might have done so, for of all "my reminiscences of travel the dusty roads here are the most vivid. Residents of this locality recognize the terrible condition of their streets and roads by hanging a long handled feather duster at the side of the front door. It is just as much expected that you will use it before entering as that you will pull the doorbell.

You see, perchance, as you. travel a cloud of arising from one of the vast grainfields that line the road for miles and wonder what has caused it. For awhile you can see nothing else, for the dust cloud envelops everything like a pall, but perhaps a stray zephyr blows it aside a moment and then you perceive within it a gang of men and horses engaged at reaping or thrashing the grain. What you saw was only a sample of California's fertile soil reduced to dust and taking to itself wings in the peculiar way that it has. In coming out of the Yosemite a few weeks ago we had occasion to pass many log and ore teams, each one with eight mules attached, and each mnle kicking up the dust in a way that was "a caution to snakes." is, the not see the teams, but BUT driver said they were there, somewhere within the dnst cloud, and when we arrived opposite to them he would yell for them to draw aside and let us Then we would hear sounds coming from out that pillar of cloud, strange and.

choice ejaculations such as are supposed to be serviceable in -urging mules to do their duty, and the dust heap become a fixture for moment while we passed it We passed one time, I remember, within 13 feet, and is the gospel did not see driver or team and have often thought that perhaps it may have been ghost of name tot men and Yesterday evening I was walking down Leipziger strasse, the Broadway of Berlin. It is lined with very elegant business places. A crowd in front of a brilliantly lighted buffet stopped me, and I went inside. A big trade was going on, but there were no clerks or waiters in sight. It was a revelation of the possibilities of the simple, unpretending nickel-in-the-slot machine.

One wall was occupied with beer faucets, over which clean, empty glasses hung on rows of pegs. The faucets were labeled with the names of different brews pschorrbrau, Zackerlbran, Munchener, Pilsener, Weissbier. All the popular beers were on tap. Different faucets with different prices gave different measures, only it wouldn't do to hold a quarter liter glass under a half liter faucet unless you wanted to wet down the dust on the floor. On another side of the room were the eatables.

"Two eggs, 10 pfennig." I put in a 10 pfennig 2y 2 pressed the button, and a sliding door opened, disclosing two eggs in a dish. One foreigner made a blunder by misreading the label "Hahnganzaufdruck- which means "Press the button hard." The first meaning of the word "Hahu," however, is "chicken," which the stranger evidently expected to get for his 10 pfennigs. What he actually did obtain was a piece of leberwurst, or sansage, that the average foreigner does not find palatable, however dear it is to the German taste. Cold meats, sandwiches, salads, almost everything that one would desire for a quick lunch was on sale. But the only human representatives of the proprietors in sight were the kitchenmaids who came in now and then and carried out the soiled dishes.

This manner of buying cigars was not wholly satisfactory, inasmuch as one must take the first that comes without having a choice of color and form out of a boxful. this difficulty is overcome, what chance will remain for the existence of clerks?

Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are better liver pills in almost every reapect. They're the smallest, easiest to take, most natural in the way they act; cheapest, because there are more in each package.

We all have weak spots. Generally it's the liver. An active liver prevents impurities and poison from entering the blood. "Pleasant Pellets" have a tonic effect upon toe liver and the general system. They cure constipation, indigestion, dyspepsia, dizzy spells, sick or bilious headaches and all derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels.
