I believe this entitles mo to speak in their behalf and for all who approve the present propositions. 1 intend to support the Republican ticket as nominated. I especially tender my sympathies and Kiipport to successful legislative can didates. The big and little troubles sre all theirs now.

Is no senator to elect, and a live days flow of bills will surely provide Abundant to do. No railroad or busi ness expects a given crew to do one years work in 40 days. The legisla ture should not be asked to. .

Certainly these California crushed flower bead neck chains are deserving of wide popularity. Their process of making is some what similar to the floral bead chains which were made by the mission people in the early Cali fornia days. It is a long, tedious process of grinding the petals and molding the pulp of flowers into beads, which harden and still re tain the natural fragrance. These necklaces are very attrac tive, and we have various lengths and styles. Carnation, forget-me-nots, ger anium, violet, heliotrope, lilac, old rose, black rose and Iris, each pos sessing its distinctive odor.
