Joy a prosperous druggist on tho comer ol Stockton and Market itrceti, In Ban Francisco, probably never dreamed ot rivaling iu wealth the medl clno kings ot the country. But various rumors hiving been floating around to tho effect that he has struck It big, an Examiner reporter was detailed to unearth the cause. It seems that about seren years ago an English physician, a great studentof Bot any, located In this city. His practice was not extenslvo, and yet the lew cases that came to him attracted no little atten tion HlsgrcatsuccessscemedtobelnthQ treatment ot liver and kidney disorders and vitiated blood. He seemed almost Infallible, and his well-kept secret was as much a mystery as himself. After his de parture Mr. Joy determined to fathom the secret, and copying; all the prescriptions he had tilled for tho erratic doctor, ho began a systematic analysis. Ho discov ered running all through tho prescript ions tor liver and kidney troubles, vitiated blood and stomach disorders a couple ot vegetable extracts indigenous to California so simple and so well known under home ly every day names to every school boy as to entlrdjjdlssipsto tho suspicion that they wero the active principles Involved So certain, however, was Mr. Joy that he had discovered the secret that ho embod ied the new elements In a preparation of Sarsaparilla to disguise tho taste, and put It before his customers under tho modest name of Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla. Im mediately the same stories camo back ol its astonishing effects, and tho mystery was solved,' and tho talk it has creatcdnas already caused it to step into prominence, and orders pour in dally from all over tho coast. And-thnsanothor California indus try leaps into existence. & F Examiner. , To the Celebration.

Cbiiareii CrjfvrPitclisr's Castoria TO THE INCREDULOUS. , There Was Kever the Man Who was Fooled or Humbngged He Hnmbnga Himself. The human race affords in itself a most singular study. There are among tho many class of thinkers, those who repose too much confidence in others, too little confidence in themselves, or no confidence in anything. The man who knows it all himself, the man who thinks somebody else knows it all and the man who thinks he knows who knows it all. The egotist, the simpleton and the skeptic. Rec ognizing the fact that people require more substantial evidence than mere words and promises, Drs. Darrin re sort to the most legitimate method of advertising themselves by advertising their cures. That those among the community may be afforded an op portunity ot investigating before call ing in person upon the doctors, the following testimonials are published bearing evidence of the doctors' ability and skill as well as success. SOKE EXES RESTORED. Editor Astoriak, Dear Sir: I have for over eight years been troubled with my eyes.

I did go, however, and found to my sur prise a man who possessed more skill and knowledge of her case than any I had applied to. His charges were reasonable nnd my wife ia cured. Thanks to Drs.
