A new. advertising scheme was re- cently employed by - a firmin a South- ern city... The junior partner of the firmswore out a warrant for the arrest of the senior partner on the ground that he was selling goods below cost,' and that the firm was constantly losing moDey thereby. ~ The case came up in court, and the counsel for the senior partner asked for. a postponement in order to have more time to prepare , his case. The Judge granted the request, bail was fixed, and the senior member released. As he left the courtroom the junior partner arose aud exclaimed, "If he is released the sacrifice will go on!" The news soon spread and the firm did a better business. When the case was again called no plaintiff appeared and the charge was dismissed. \u25a0 The firm had succeeded in their object— advertisement. Found a Petrified Canoe.

That distinction is held by a gigantic seaweed, known as the nereo- cytis, which frequently . grows to a height of more than 300 feet. The stem of tho plant is as strong as an or- dinary rope, and large quantities of it are dried and used as rope by the in- habitants of tho South Sea Islands, where the curious vegetable ropes are found. This seaweed usually grows to a depth of from 200 to 300 foet. As soon -as the : plant takes root a spear- shaped balloon is formed, which grows with the stem toward the surface of the water. This balloon frequently has a diameter of six feet or more. It has, of course, an upward tendency, and therefore keeps the stem growing until it floats on the top of the water. This enormous weed grows in such quanti- ties that large meadowlike islands are formed, which lyo often so big as to impede navigation. The ropes made from the stems of the plant are used for building purposes, and the balloons, when dried, make very serviceable vessels. Young Mothers. Not Exactly a Dead Town.

About 100 feet higher and directly back of the canoe is a cave which extends into the side of the mountain- about 100 feet. The average width of the cave is about twenty-five feet and it is about fifteen feet to the ceiling. The) place shows many signs of having inhabited.

Beale of San Francisco, proprietor of the Calaveras Citizen, and C. O, Zieg- enfuss, the editor and publisher of the paper, to recover $5000 \u25a0, damages claimed to have been sustained by him by reason of certain alleged libelous ar- ticles which appeared In the issues of the paper between the 11th of Novem- ber and the 23d of December of the present year. As will be remembered, Wood commenced suit against that paper shortly after - the publication of November 11th, asking $2000 damages, and also Instituting proceedings under the Morehouse signature law, which which imposes a fine of $1000 for a viola- tion of its provisions. The case finally came up for hearing and was dismissed on demurrer. \n the meantime and between the dates above named that paper retorted in rather caustic criti- cisms of the plaintiff, so the latter tiled a new complaint on the first charge, also bringing in the matter contained in the later publications as additional counts to his complaint, and asking the the Court to award him damages in the sum of $5000,' costs of suit and such further relief as the Court may deem agreeable to equity. Inthis complaint nq action is taken under the Morehouse law. Of course nobody could be blamed but the unfortunate man himself, as it was undoubtedly a piece of gross care- lessness on his part, unless he was obliged to do so in order to save him- self from going into the sump, or to avert some other fatal Occident. Another accident happened in the Lightner "mine last Wednesday fore- noon. An Austrian named John Kos- tovich attempted to step' off the skip whileit was in motion, with the result that the bonnet of the skip struck him. He was badly i cut on the head, side of neck and breast. It is said that it is impossible for him to recover. ' ;\u25a0: I'rospec t ,' San Andreas, December 30th.'

Philological. Association of the Pacific Coast. Every university and college of importance in California and in Oregon and many schools and acad- emies sent representatives to the con- vention which was heldjast Friday and Saturday in. the '\u25a0 Mark Hopkins Insti- tute of Art at San Francisco, for the formation of the new society. The first annual address was delivered \u25a0by President Ide Wheeler of , the. Univer- sity .of California. His address was 1 'Thel Place of Philology. V He said that the study of language andlitera- ture cannot be divorced, that litera- '.. ture is man's completes! self-expression, and that literary^ appreciation and his- torical research should be inseparably .interwoven with; the 'study of lan- guages. He protected against barren formalism and pedantic absorption in technicalities. ,~ "Chinese has many claims to be con- vsidered better adapted than any other \u25a0tongue'' to- become the universal lan- !guagei" wiid Dr. John Fryer, Agassiz jPcofessor of Oriental Languages in the University of California, in his address to the philologists. Dr. Fryer declared Chinese the most comprehensive and the most expensive of languages. He said that it is a language without a gram- mar, without punctuation, without moods, tenses, cases, or persons, vet possessing immense -flexibility of adaptation and wide scope for expan- sion. Scholarly papers on the Greek, Latin, Semitic, German, Fi-ench, and English literatures and languages weie raad by philologists from Leland Stanford Junior University of Cali- fornia, the University of Oregon, Whit- man College, Wash., and .by repre- sentatives of. a number of. other col- leges and high schools. The associat- ion adjourned at the end of a two days', session, atyer electing . permanent officers, arranging for regular, meet- ings hereafter, ami adopting a constitu- tion similar to that of tho American Philological Association. Life mem- bership can be secured for a !©! of $50. The expenses of the active member- ship will be small. .The publications of the society promises to be of Impor- tance. The organization will un- doubtedly prove a powerful stlmulous to original scholarships. One of the greatest honors . which can fall to the classical scholar has been bestowed upon President Benja- min Ide Wheeler of the University of California. Dr. ...Wheeler has been made a ' corresponding member of the Imperial Archaeological Institute of Germany, a learned society conducted under the auspices of « the ; , German Government, which supports schools of classical studies at Rome and at Athens, and conducts excavations and explorations in Greece, Italy, Asia Minor, and other parts of the ancient world. It is only with extreme rarity that the honor of membership is con- ferred upon foreign scholars. The \u25a0 celebrated French, symbolic poet, Henri de Regnier .Of Paris has completed arrangements with the Uni- versity of California for a series of five lectures, to be delivered at 3 o'clock on the afternoons : of April 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25, 1900, inHearst Hall,' Berkeley.

MISCELLANEOUS. Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription makes Weak Women Strong and Sick Women Well. The_ cuckoo is^, generally known only" as a bird with a very monotonous note : a continuous cry of "cuckoo, cuckoo" over and over again. Among naturalists, however, the cuckoo is known as a bird that never builds a nest for itself, but takes advantage of one already built by some more industrious bird. : ' - There is a good deal of the cuckoo about these advertisers who, instead of making a success of their own, seek to profit Dy the success which some one else has made .with ...much effort and labor. It is so with those imitations of Dr. Pierce'a methods, by which free nit Jical advice is offered, although those who make the offer are without qualified medical ability or experience. And the cry raised in some cases of "woman, woman, woman write to woman " makes the resemblance ; to the cuckoo even stronger.' There is as far as known no qualified woman physician connected with any proprietary medicine establishment, and none therefore competent to give medi- cal advice. It is certain that there is no one, man or woman, who can offer free medical advice backed by such knowl- edge and experience as is possessed by Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting phy- sician to the World's Dispensary, Buffalo, N. Y. For over thirty years Dr. Pierce has made a specialty of the treatment of diseares peculiar to women. In that time heias treated over half-a-million -^»otn«jt,-nii»«ty-eiglit-|>er-ccnt. of -whom have been perfectW cured: Every sick woman is invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter absolutely without charge or cost.

A new. advertising scheme was re-cently employed by - a firmina South-ern city... The junior partner of thefirmswore out a warrant for the arrestof the senior partner on the groundthat he was selling goods below cost,'and that the firm was constantly losingmoDey thereby.

~

The case came up in court, and thecounsel for the senior partner askedfor. a postponement in order to havemore time to prepare ,his case. TheJudge granted the request, bail wasfixed, and the senior member released.As he left the courtroom the juniorpartner arose aud exclaimed, "Ifhe isreleased the sacrifice willgo on!"

The news soon spread and the firmdida better business.

When the case was again called noplaintiff appeared and the charge wasdismissed. \u25a0 The firm had succeeded intheir object— advertisement.

Itis not tho earth but the sea thathas produced the largest plant in theworld. That distinction is held by agigantic seaweed, known as the nereo-cytis, which frequently . grows to aheight of more than 300 feet. Thestem of tho plant is as strong as an or-dinary rope, and large quantities of itare dried and used as rope by the in-habitants of tho South Sea Islands,where the curious vegetable ropes arefound. This seaweed usually grows toa depth of from 200 to 300 foet. Assoon -as the:plant takes root a spear-shaped balloon is formed, which growswith the stem toward the surface ofthe water. This balloon frequently hasa diameter of six feet or more. Ithas,of course, an upward tendency, andtherefore keeps the stem growing untilit floats on the top of the water. Thisenormous weed grows in such quanti-ties that large meadowlike islands areformed, which lyo often so big as toimpede navigation. The ropes madefrom the stems of the plant are usedfor building purposes, and the balloons,when dried, make very serviceablevessels.

A petrified oar lies acrossthe top of the craft. About 100 feethigher and directly back of the canoeis a cave which extends into the side ofthe mountain- about 100 feet. Theaverage width of the cave is abouttwenty-five feet and it is about fifteenfeet to the ceiling. The) place showsmany signs of having inhabited.

E. E. Wood, the Angels attorney,filed another action in the SuperiorCourt last Wednesday against C. R.Beale of San Francisco, proprietor ofthe Calaveras Citizen, and C. O, Zieg-enfuss, the editor and publisher of thepaper, to recover $5000 \u25a0, damagesclaimed to have been sustained by himby reason of certain alleged libelous ar-ticles which appeared In the issues ofthe paper between the 11th of Novem-ber and the 23d of December of thepresent year. As willbe remembered,Wood commenced suit against thatpaper shortly after -the publication ofNovember 11th, asking $2000 damages,

and also Instituting proceedings underthe Morehouse signature law, whichwhich imposes a fineof$1000 fora viola-tion of its provisions. The case finally

came up for hearing and was dismissedon demurrer. \n the meantime andbetween the dates above named thatpaper retorted in rather caustic criti-cisms of the plaintiff, so the latter tileda new complaint on the first charge,also bringing in the matter containedinthe later • publications as additionalcounts to his complaint, and asking thethe Court to award himdamages in thesum of $5000,' costs of suit and suchfurther relief as the Court may deemagreeable to equity. Inthis complaintnq action is taken under the Morehouselaw.

Of course nobody could be blamedbut the unfortunate man himself, as itwas undoubtedly a piece of gross care-lessness on his part, unless he wasobliged to do so in order to save him-self from going into the sump, or toavert some other fatal Occident.

Another accident happened in theLightner "mine last Wednesday fore-noon. An Austrian named John Kos-tovich attempted to step' off the skipwhileit was in motion, with the resultthat the bonnet of the skip struckhim. He was badlyicut on the head,side of neck and breast. Itis said thatit is impossible for him to recover.

The_ cuckoo is^,generally known only"as a bird with a very monotonous note :a continuous cry of "cuckoo, cuckoo"overand over again. Among naturalists,however, the cuckoo is known as a birdthat never builds a nest for itself, buttakes advantage of one already builtbysome more industrious bird. :

' -There is a good deal of the cuckoo

about these advertisers who, instead ofmaking a success of their own, seek toprofit Dy the success which some oneelse has made .with ...much effort andlabor. Itis so with those imitations ofDr. Pierce'a methods, by which freenitJical advice is offered, although thosewho make the offer are without qualifiedmedical ability or experience. And thecry raised in some cases of "woman,woman, woman writeto woman

"makes

the resemblance ;to the cuckoo evenstronger.'

There is as far as known no qualifiedwoman physician connected with anyproprietary medicine establishment, andnone therefore competent to give medi-cal advice. Itis certain that there is noone, man or woman, who can offer freemedical advice backed by such knowl-edge and experience as is possessed byDr. R. V.Pierce, chief consulting phy-sician to the World's Dispensary, Buffalo,N. Y. For over thirtyyears Dr. Piercehas made a specialty of the treatmentof diseares peculiar to women.
