WHAT IS PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND’ Paine’s celery compound is the one remedy that can be trusted to make a per- son well. It stops the drain on the nervous sys- tem; dispels harmful humors from the blood, and increases ifs volume and its nourishing capacity. Its ability to relieve those ailments that seem to be peculiarly the misfortune of women is overwhelmingly proved by the | many testimonials from women of the | hignest standing in where they live. Its_regulating power does away with “that disheartened feeling.” the communities The aggravated causes of disordered | liver and kidneys, mental depression, hys- | teria and kindred troubles, are recognized and dealt with.by Paine's celery com-| pound, in a radicsl and scientific manner | that embodies the most advanced medical | idess of this last decade of the century. Paine’s celery compound strengthens | the stomach when it is irritable and in- | chined to_indigestion, and prevents dvs- | pepsia; it relieves palpitation of the heart | | that results from irregular nerve supply to | | that vital organ, and puts new life into the entire nervous system. Persons in sound bealth are not con- tinually reminded of their heart, stomach or liver by distress in those organs. When- ever lancuor or pain attack the body there | is no guestion as to the urgent need of 1 !

A soundly nourished nervous system and a rich, pure blood supply brouzht about by Paine’s celery compound are the best bulwark against such disesses of de- oility and impoverishment as rheumatism, neuralgia, headaches and sleeplessne: When one hears it confidently declared by so many well-known and representa- tive men and women everywhere that compaund positively and permanently cures diseases that at first lance seem so remote from each other as chronic constipation, hysteria and ner- vousness, inquiry into these diseases shows that their common origin is a run- down, exhausted nervous system and vitiated blood, and Paine’s celery com- pound builds up the one and purifies and strengthens the other. APPEAL TO THE PRESIDENT-ELECT Fruit-Growers Ask for an Increase in the Tariff. Eastern Market Flooded by For- eign Prunes, Raisins and Walnuts, D. H. Porter of Porter Bros. Voices tue Sentiment of the Trade in California, By no class perhaps in the community is the approaching installation of McKin- ley and the dawn of & new administr tion pledged to ameliorative measures more confidently anticipated than by the fruit-growers of California and tne com. mission merchants who handle their products. The McKinley protective tariff formerly guaranteed to these important interests a satisfactory degree of prosperity, but the Iatter was unbappily short-lived, and the passage of the Wilson bill was the signat for its extinction. The prospect of a speedy resumption of a protective tariff, coupled with an inadequate supply from other sources in the Eastern market, caused an immediate increase of Califor- nia shipments last year, which may be taken as an augury of permanent pros- perity when the President-elect is actu- | ally installed. D. H. Porter of Porter Bros., the com- mission merchants of California street, expressed the general sentiment of the trade 1n conversation with a CaLL repre- sentative yesterday. “During the last thirty days,” he said, “we have maade two shipments, consisting of 10,000 boxes each, of prunes to France and Hamburg, and last year quite a number of carloads were supplied to foreign markets. Re- cent advices received from wholesalers who handied these shipments state that they are the first fruit ever imported into France. The prunes in question were of tie lurgest size, going forty and fifty to the pound, wbich are rarely seen in France in any quantity. “Itshould be added that this apparent increase in the trade is no criterion of av- erage conditions. The margin of profit for the last three or four years bas been virtually nil. Last season, however, we made a bare living owing to extremely short crops in the East, with the exception | of the apple crop, which was uausua.ly large, and the exhaustion of the previous year’s shipments. This combination of favorable circumstancescreated ademand, which, however, cannot be relied on to occur With very great frequency. “The present auty upon prunes of 13 cents a pound is entirely inadequate, as it allows Turkish, French and German prunes to undercut usin the New York market. The prices of California fruits are directly affected, because, as a mat- ter of iact, the Eastern buyers neyer discriminate, nor do they pay exclusive regard to quality, but purchase the cheap- est article in the market. As far as peaches and apricots are concerned, we are not airaid of competition, but California raisins, almonds and walnuts need protec- tion. The California almond i3 admittedly the finest in the worid. Iis shell is softer than ana 1ts flavor superior to that of any other variety produced abroad. ““We are of opinion that acent and a half increase of the present duty on prunes, or a total duty of about 3 cents, would prove satisfactory. The duty on nuts should be 5 cents, at least. I am no: absolutely sure of the amount of the exist- | ing duty on pranes, but believe it to be as stated; in any event it is very light. The McKinley bill afforded us tbe necessary protection in this particular, but the Wii- son bill enforced the reductions i refer to. The commission merchant should prop- erly make a net profit of 5 per cent and the grower 2 or 3 cents a pound over and above ull expenses. At present if he real- ized haif a cent be is doing well. ““The restoration of the triff, if it pro- vides the necessary duty on California fruits, will benefit the State generaliy. The farmer will begin to make money, and when the farmer 1s prosperous ever body is prosperous. The State is inter- ested in this question to the extent of millions of dollars, and it is nothing more than reasonable for us to demand a cer- tain degree of protection. Bear in mind that we do not ask for anything in the shape of a bounty. “The Chamber of Commerce has taken the matter up, and shorily after McKin- ley’s election nearly every commission Liouse bere, handling fruit, sent samples to the President-eiect, with an accom panying request that he would bear in mind the fuct that California needs pro- tection. We look for better trage next year—provided, of course, that the Mc- Kinley tariff restores the duty on Califor- uia fruit . DRESS SUIT ON THE RUN. R. E. Steele Makes a - wo Days’ Chase After It, but Finds It Not. R. E. Steele has brought suit in the Jus- tices’ Court against the Pacific Transfer Company, and in his complaint teils quite a tale of woe about a dress-suit case and its contents—its swallow-tailed coat, low- ~ut vest and bifurcates. The complaint is full of legal phrases about the aforesaid case and contents, etc., but these techni- cal expressions do not detract from the pathos of the story, which runs the legal verbiage like a streak of sunsnine through clouds. On January 3. 1897, so Mr. Stecle sets forth, he was t e owner of a ‘*certain dress-suit case and contents of the value of §66 50, and that be was then and there entitled to the immediate use of the sume’’ —presumably the contents; but the defendancon January 3 “‘came into posses- sion of the case and contents and wrong- fully and unlawfuliy took, converted and appropristed the same.” Then the complaint, without pausing 10 say whether the dress suit fitted the transfer company, OF any part thereof, ab- L I T — Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria. ruptly changes the scene, and presents a picture of a stern chase after the elusive garments. ““The defendant still keeps and refuses to deliver the said case and contenis, and the plaintiff has spent two days in the pursuit of such property, and the time so spent was reasonably worth $10.” After the account of the loss and the somewhat uncircumstantial story of the two days of fruitless pursuit and the narc-heartedness; of the company, M. Steele statistically estimated his damages as follow! Case and contents. $66 50; time, $10; attorney, $25. These items, with interest on the value of the articles, have brought the amount of the claim up to $101 50. TO AID THE LIBRARY. High School Girls Preparing a Fine Entertainment.

MOONEY WAS RAMPANT A Drunken Police Officer Fires Three Shots in a Street Car. He Was Drowning a Sorrow and Lost Track of the Proprieties of Official Conduct. Officer Joseph Mooney, who has been on | the police force of this City for thirteen | years, started in yesterday morning on a lurid celebration in which Mission liquor and a loud-voiced revolver were promi- nent elemen and at the termination of which he found himself bereft of nis star | and temporarily relegated to the ranks of | the civilians. Mooney, his fellow ofhcers aver, has always been an exemplary officer, but of late he has been almost insane from grief | at the loss of his wife, who died about a month ago. After reporting off at 8§ o'clock yesterday morning he went in- dusiriously to work to drown his sorrows, and by noon he was hilariously drunk, | and in this condition he entered a car of | the San Francisco and San Mateo line | | near the corner of Guerrero and Twenty- | third streets. Mooney dropped his umbrella from the | car and the obliging conductor stopped to pick it up. The car's halt suggested to | Mooney that things were moving too slowly. He drew his revolver, an inci- | dent “of “his official nvosition, and com- { menced livening things up in a manner | that would have done credit to Wild West fiction. Three shots he fired in rapid succession. Two of these went over his head and a third lodged in the framework over the windows. Fortunately the passengers in the car at the time were few, and those who wi nessed the affair lost little time in seeking | the idewalk. For the remainder of his | journey Mooney had a nice roomy car all | to bimself. A complaint was at once lodged with Chief Crowley, who, in view of Mooney's recent beresvement, was inclined to view Mooney’s indulgence more leniently than he otherwise might. Nevertheless he had Moonev brought before him at once. He was deprived of his star and was placed upon the suspension list until such time | as the Commissioners shall pass upon his | case.
