Third—The blowing off of steam at the sta- on is & nulsance and has caused many hair- | | ti on_being pressed for takes chances avolded, and any one | time, seeing all the gates closed, in order not to miss his connections, he would not_be compelled to do were gates | open on both &ides of the train. ‘Wherefore your petitioners pray that the said be open on the south side of all trains upon to insure the safety of the public.

A gentleman, whose business is a constant strain upon his nerves, relates that one night recently he was unable to sleep. On previous occasions he had observed a bene- -fit arising from the use of Ripans Tabules. On this particular occasion, believing that heroic measures were necessary, fie took three. The result was really surpris- ing. The effect was as quieting as though the medicine had contained a narcotic, which every one knows it does not. There was an immediate feeling of ease, rest and quiet, extending in a few minutes over the entire system, . and sleep came as naturally as to a child. - am| Sebastopol pm| Stages connect at Santa Rosa for Mark West Springs; at Lytton for Lytton Springs; at Gey- serville, for Skaggs Springs; at Cloverdale for the Geysers; at Hopland for Duncan Springs, Highland Springs, Kelseyville, ‘New Carisbad Springs, Soda Bay, Lakeport and ot Springs; at Uklah for Vichy Springs, Sarstoga prings, Blue Lakes, Laurel Dell Lake, Upper Lake, Pomo, Potter Valley, John Day's, River- side, Lierley's, Bucknell's, Sanhedrin Heights, Huliville, Booneville, Orr's Hot Spi Men- docino City, Fort Bragg, Westport, Usal.
