Hali’s Catarrh Cure .is the only positive cure known to the :medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh @ure is taken internally, acting directly’tij6i thé blood and mucous surfaces of thé system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and . giving thé patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing “its work.

It is the expectation that before Many months have elapsed the incandescent lamps now used for street lighting will be replaced in the business . portion of town with arc lamps of 2000 candle-power and that the few outlying portions of the city which are at present insufficiently lighted will be furnished with additional incandes;cents. Our enterprising City Trustees are desirous of improving the service as rapidly as the condition of the treasury will permit, and many business men have volunteered to contribute each month toward footing the bills. The Electric Power Company offer to furnish 25 all-night arcs at $200 a month, running them on a line distinct from the incandescents and putting. in @ separate dynamo, which improvement would cost the company an immediate outlay of not less than $2500. This arrangement would give a perfect service —in fact the best to be had fer any money, as the new machinery and lampewould have all the latest and most approved improvements. We now have 67 all-night incandescent street lamps, and our city ranks as one of the best lit of any of the few in the country that use only incandescents. For them we pay $108 a month, which is the lowest price that any town of its size on the coast pays for street lighting. Many places. in California with less population than we have pay from $300 to $400 a month for less adequate service. The desire among our people to have the best and most lights’ that we can reasonably afford to pay for is quite general, and this feeling is fortunately shared by our progressive *. board of city fathers. Hence it is that before the great meetings here of the Grand Army Veterans and Native Sons in April next Nevada City will be at the front in this respect as it is in everything else it sets out to do.

What would you do if war should be declared tomorrow with a European power? How would it change your home life, the lives of your brother and other relatives ? How would it affect your business connections and business? What changes would it make in financial, city, State and National affairs? It is these interesting problems which a writer in the December Cosmopolitan has undertaken to sketch under the heading of “A Brief History of Our Late,War With Spain,” at the same time vividly describing the exciting scenes which would attend the opening of hostilities. The same number of The Cosmopolitan has an article on “The Well-Dressed Woman” by Elsie de Wolfe, a contrast of the characters of Henry George .anhél Charles A. Dana by John Brisben Walker, in another place “The Lovers of Goethe,” while Wells’ story, “The War of the Worlds,” which has been so widely read, reaches its conclusion in an unexpected way.
