CALIFORNIA’S PRIDE.
Great Display of Fruits and
Flowers at Sunset City.
INTERESTING EXHIBITION
Cf tbe Agricultural and Horti
cultural Resources of the
Golden State.
None of the structures at California’s
Midwinter exposition will lie more dis
tinctively Californian than the Agricul
tural and Horticultural building. It is
the third in size of the buildings, and its
dimensions are about 400 by 200 feet. Its
architecture is of the style in which the
early padres loved to erect their mission
buildings, with low round arches and
flattened domes, a style that was peculiar
to early California, and is there distin
guished as the “mission,” in much the
same way and with quite as much cor
rectness as the people of older states
■peak of certain architectural • forms as
The structure is, however,
xnu'cirxnorc ornate and fanciful in its
decorations than the early examples of
the padres’ work, which were severely
and' characteristically plain.
But if the building is distinctively
Californian in its architecture, it will be
hardly less so in the character of the
products therein displayed. All the
world is free to send exhibits, and Flori
da, Mexico and Japan have already an
nounced their intention of disputing Cali
fornia’s boasted supremacy in oranges.
Other nations will no doubt be ready to

do so in the matter of prunes, raisins,
figs and the other dried fruits, but the
; perishable nature of most of the mate
rials, even with the advantage of cold
storage which will be accorded them,
will necessarily restrict the competition
tp localities from which the diSplays can
be replenished as occasion requires. This
will give the California counties mani
fest advantages which they will not be
slow to act upon, for they are never slow
in anything.
In the showing of dried and canned
fruits, however, they realize that they
must do their best in a competition with
the older, though less favored, localities
in which the different varieties have
been made specialties, and in these lines
they have devised some surprising
things. Fresno county, the greatest
raisin district in the world, for instance,
is to have a model of her beautiful court
house, the body of the building to be
constructed of raisins and the dome of
oranges. The dimensions of the model
will be 50 by 40 feet, and the dome will
be 45 feet in height. There will be plen
ty of room inside for visitors, and the
structure will have to be watchfully
guarded lest visiting vandals actually
eat it up.
There has been an orange war in Cali
fornia for several years. Outsiders do
not know much about it unless they, have
visited the coast or take some California
paper, for Californians never mention
it when they go away from home. In
fact, Californians on their travels forget
all about sectional jealousies and neigh
borhood quarrels and speak of the entire,
big state as if it were their
homestead, in every acre of which
have a*' reversionary interest. But
orange war has been waging aavertqH
less, though it may be considered a fra
ternal rather than a fratricidal strife,
and mention of it is made here, not for
the sake of calling outside attention to
it, but to show how it is to benefit the
whole state.
It, is like thijc There are in California
two separate and distinct citrus belts—
meaning tiers of. counties in which or
anges, lemons and other semitropical
fruits can be grown. One of these is in
the northern half of the state and em
braces the counties of Colusa, Yuba,
Butte, Solano, Placer, Sacramento and
Napa. The other is in the extreme south
ern part of the state and includes the
counties of San Luis Obispo, Santa Bar
bara, Ventura, Orange and San Diego on
the coast and Kern and San Bernardino
in the interior. Between these two sec
tions the greatest rivalry exists as to
which raises the best fruitsand offers the
most inducements to intending settlers.
Strange to sav. oranges sometimes rinen
—upon you before you know it. It is sure
to be in the air we breathe, the water we
drink. The germ of consumption is every
where present. The germ begins to grow as
soon as it reaches a weak spot in the body.
Catarrh, Bronchitis, and a scrofulous condi
tion, furnish these weak spots. The way to
fight these germs— brain early —render the
liver active and purify the blood with Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. Besides,
it builds up healthy flesh. .
It’s guaranteed in all bronchial, throat and
lung affections; every form of scrofula, even
Consumption in its earlier stages. If the
“Discovery” fails to benefit or cure, you
have your money bock.
Fortify yourself disease by making
the body germ-proof, then you will save
yourself from grip, malaria, and many of
the passing diseases.

earner m rue nortnern oeit, ana much
has been made of this fact.
It has been the custom for each of
these belts to have every year a citrus
fair of its own, and the displays thereat
have seemed simply marvelous to people
who live where oranges, lemons, figs,
raisins and such things don’t grow. This
year, however, incited by the general
enthusiasm for the Midwinter fair which
pervades the state, both belts have agreed
to hold their citrus fairs in the Sunset
City. and each has been assigned a loca
tion near the Agricultural building.
Their displays, combined with those of
other localities and with the transcendent
flor ’ possibilities of the entire state, will
give eastern visitors a newer and more
adequate idea of what the Californian
means when he calls his state “the land
of sunshine, fruji and flowers.”
Altogether as if the entire
Golden State were “out for a good time,”
as the Native Sons jovially express it, for
much is being maqe of the amusement
features of the exposition, and the San
Francisco papers devote a great deal of
ipace to informing the world at large
what fun as well as instruction can be
lad at the Sunset City.

The Athens of the South.
And now <pmes the Memphis - Com
mercial prcjfcsHßHng that Memphis is
tlie”Athens of the south.” It is a lit
tle late in filing its claim, but we trust
that it will be duly considered. There
is not a city or town in the whole
southern country, scarcely a village or
hamlet, that can boast of a high school,
an academy, a college or a university,
a reading club or a literary society,
that does not boast of being the “Athens
of the south.” Meanwhile Knoxville
continues to be the “Athens of the
south. ” —Knoxville Tribune.

Children Cry for
Pitcher’s Castoria*
Concerning Pronunciation.
An Englishman who has been visit
ing in Chicago says it is very amusing
to listen .to the American ridicule of
Englishmen for pronouncing Cholmon
deley ‘‘ Chumley, ’ ’ Beaqchamp ‘ * Beech
am,” etc.. "In England,” ho declares,
“you will find, as a rule, that people
prdnounce Massachusetts ‘Ma-satch
azettes. ’ Absurd? Os course it is, but
how'are you going to tell? The rule by
which it is pronounced * Massachusetts’
is purely arbitrary. The most curious
of all your mispronounciations are per
haps the adopted French names. How
in the name of the eternal fitness of
things do you get ‘Soo Saint Mary’ out
of Sault Ste. Marie? ‘Terry Hut’ for
Terre Haute is just a little worse. It is
unaccountable, too, how you came to
call Prairie du Chien ‘Prairie doo
Sheen. ’ Os course you have a right to
arrange your own pronounciation, but
give us the same liberty. We at least
have the excuse that our names are 10
or 15 centuries old and have had oppor
tunity to grow naturally corrupted in
the lapse of time.’’—ChicagoStandard.

from any disease that has caused such
fearful results as has LaGrippe. Royal
Germetuer has never failed to cure it
quickly where used.
RELIABLE evidence.
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 28,1893.
“In January last I had a violent attack
of LaGrippe. I was advised by a friend
to use Royal Germetuer, which cured me
in a couple of days. I was again attacked
by the ‘grip’ this month, and profiting by
my former expedience I commenced at
once with Gerinetner and did not have
to go to bed. 1 consider it a specific for
