NEWS NOTES FROM PASADENA The Planing Mill Site Question Still Unsettled THE NEW ENTANGLEMENTS Threaten to Delay Proceedings for Some Time Christian V. P. S. C. E.» dive a Plsasant social—Eastern Star Work—Company T.i Target Shooting—Brevities PASADENA, June 20.—The settlement of the Mann & Daniels mill site dispute, which was thought to have been dis posed of at the special meeting of the city council Inst Wednesday, again bobß up serenely, as unsettled as ever. There seems to have been a misunderstanding as to the terms of the offer of K. C. Web ster, or elso somebody has backed out; at any rata they cannot agree, und the whole question is opened up again. Ac cording to Mr. Mann and others who were present at the council meeting; aforesaid, Mr. Webster agreed to pur chase the site which was considered by him and others in tho neighborhood aa an objectionable location for the mill, nnd to pay SLTiO down with the balance at tho end of ninety days, putting up good collateral security for the balance till paid. But when the final talk on the matter was had Mr. Webster would not put up both the cash payment und tha security, saying his offer was to put up one or the ether, but not both. The price agreed upon was $6100. The council granted a permit for the mill to be built upon another site which was unobjec tionable to the property owners who had defeated tha llrst attempt to locate the mill, this lalter site to be purchased with the money received from Mr. Webster for the llrst one. As a matter of fact, the second site lor which the cuuncll readily granted a permit Is nearer to the center of business than the first for which they would nut grant a permit. The way lt stands now, since Mr. Webster will fur nish enough cash in purchasing the for mer site to help with building the mill, Mann & Daniels cannot go ahead on the proposition It is to be hoped that the matter can be udjusted so that the pro ject can go ahead, for It is a good thing for the town, employing many hands.

HOW YOU CAN GET RICH ON $35 And at the Same Time Quit Drinking A Way to Escape the Most Dread ful Curse With Which 3lan Is Alnlctert—Open to All The Herald reporter visited the offices of the National Liquor Cure company at 122 and 123 Wilson block, in an endeavor to secure an interview which was denied us during the week on account of stress of business. It was our good fortune to meet the lady manager, Mrs. Hotchkiss, who volunteered to give us a few min utes' interview. She said, when asked, it might be considered odd to find a wo man in this line of business, but she was satisfied after a long experience that women must be met by women in a case of this kind; "and," said she, "I have la bored for years with and for women and 1 know just how to sympathize with them, and I know, also, that they will come to and talk with one of their own sex more readily than with men. I feel satisfied that we are doing a grand mis sionary work and that we are making very many happy homes throughout the country." In reply to the question, "Are you meeting with the success anticipat ed when you first opened the offices?" she returned: "Our success has been un parelleled, and we owe it all to the fact that we never betray our trust. No per son need fear that we will ever give the name of a patient to boom our cure, and we receive more calls on that account than any liquor cure ever offered the public. "We simply give the patient the med icine to carry home, and he can hide it from his family if he sees fit. Then he is not asked to take hypodermic injections nor to follow a lot of tyrannical rules, but simply takes the remedy when he feels like taking a drink, and before he knows it he is cured arvd that's the end of the matter. My experience has taught me that men seldom like to pose as 'be fore and after' examples of appetite, and though there are a few who are working for the good of thir fellow men and will go out and lecture on the subject and acknowledge their former drunken ca rousals, as did John Gough, yet as a rule they seldom wish to refer to it. "I wish you could hear our patients come in and talk of their restoration. The joy depicted on their faces would prove to you what a glorious work we are doing. One man since last January has put his money, which formerly went into the saloons, into a house and lot on the installment plan; another has gone into the country and has gone to work as foreman of a large ranch from which he had been discharged for drunkenness, ■ and another has gone to San Francisco as salesman in a large grocery house. I could tell you many touching stories of ladies who have fallen Into the habit, and of their restoration and thankfulness; also of wives and mothers who have sought for and administered the cure to their male relatives. I could go on ad infinitum, but it is enough to say that we are doing good work and are proud of it." "Mrs. Hotchkiss," we inquired, "do you ever have to refund the deposit money on account of a failure to cure?" Said she, smiling: "So' far we never have. The medicine is a certain cure, and we have yet to find a patient who has not been cured, and we have had some which would be called hopeless — men who have laid in jails week in and week out. This remedy is purely veg etable, perfectly harmless, and is the greatest nerve sedative known to man. You don't have to send east for it but can always find it In stock at Nos. 122 and 123, Wilson block." SCALE WASH I: is with unnounded confidence In our YV ash we wish to bring it to v our QOtloe.

One who has not known it himself cannot realize the feelings of the man in an advanced stage of Nervous Debility, nor does he; hear of it, for these men do not talk of their troubles. Even when they are fortunately led to use the remedy which is now so well known—Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt—and are cured by it, they do not mention it to their closest friends; hence the prevalence of this trouble and the means of core are appreciated only by those who have had experience. Considering these points.it is worth while to note how many'hus.. throw aside all feelings of delicacy and give to the world, for the benefit of fellow-sufferers, the fact of their cure by Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt. "I could dance with joy when I consider that I have been saved from the necessity of living the rest of my life in that miserable condition," says A. J. Morse, Los Gatos, Cal., after using Dr.* Sanden's Belt one month. . Such gratitude must give vent to words of praise. Mr. Morse is a man past his prime and was given up by Dr. Urquhart of Los Gatos. He was ia the last stages of Nervous Debility and is now fast recovering his strength, Mr. L. L. Jaccard, one of the best known and most respected men in Alameda County, in the jewelry business at San Leandro, was cured by Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt over a year ago. Last week he said: "I have no delicacy in making this statement. Your Belt has cured me of a varicocele and weakness that has been slowly destroying me for twenty-six years, and now that I am cured I think it is no more than right to tell the rest of the poor sufferers of it. A thing that is really good ought to be spoken of." . Mr. Jaccard is now one of the best specimens of physical manhood in Ala meda County. He is fifty years of age, five feet nine inches in height, weighs 210 pounds and does not carry an ounce of superfluous flesh. His form is a mass of muscle. Strength of manhood is not dependent upon flesh. Fat men are seldom vigorous. This strength is in the nerves, and the life is electricity. This explains the reason for the inevitable failure of drugs and the success of Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt in restoring the lost power. Applied for three to six hours in the twenty-four, at any time during the day or night that is most convenient to the patient, it saturates the sys tem with Electric energy (animal magnetism), and this energy slowly builds up the forces of all vital parts. The vigor of manhood expands and be comes perfect in two or three months. "I received your belt on February 9 last, and wore it for two or three I hours every night for about two months. lam cured, and my partner, ' Henry Mauvis, used the same belt for vital weakness and it has cured him," says Julius Jahn, Silver Star, Montana, May 17. No remedy is so easy to use as Dr. Sanden's Electric Belt. None gives such quick results. It has a patented regulator, which enables the wearer to turn the current on mild or strong at will while the Belt is on the body. It is warranted to last and give a strong electric current for one .year. It is by all means the surest cure for any weakness. Young, middle-aged and old men should send for Dr. Sanden's famous work, "Three Classes of Men," which will be sent, closely sealed, without ' marks, free. It gives full information, and hundreds of letters from people cured. It may save you a great deal of suffering.
