The General Demand of the AYrll-Infnrmed of tho World bu always born for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could auction for family uso because its com ponent parts are known to them to bo wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its ex cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remark able success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Trice fifty cents per bottle.

' Elmer Strleklett, the "spit ball" pitcher, had been listening a long while in a'New York club to the boasting of a rival. ! "Well," he said, exhausted at last, "you are pretty good, Mike; but out In Mountain View there Is a young fel low who can beat you. You'll hear. from him next season. Ills specialty Is the slow ball.

The Turks adopted the crescent as the emblem of their country when they captured Byzantium. Before Turkish reign prevailed In that city it was be sieged by Philip of Macedon, who, after being repeatedly ba filed in its capture, formed a night attack in hope of find ing the garrison olt guard. Just as the troops of Philip were ad vancing, the moon shone out brightly and revealed the attack to tho besieged, who repulsed It After this the cres cent was adopted as the badge of the city, and when Byzantium fell to the Turks they found it hung In every pub lic square. Believing it to possess some magical power, they adopted it them selves and It afterward became the em blem of the Turkish empire. Tho Alternative. At a 'fancy dress ball for children a policeman wan stationed at the door and was instructed by the committee not to admit any adults.

"But my child Is dressed as a butter fly," exclaimed the woman, "and she has forgotten her wings."

It Is the avowed purpose of the Department of Jus tice to prosecute criminally anyone who Is really re sponsible for violations of the anti-trust law wherever It can do so with any reasonable probability of fiic cesa.

KINDNESS IN WEDLOCK MAKES The man who has hung upon his sweet heart's words and craved her kisses does not realize the pain which he inflicts when he leaves her day after day without n caress, or at most lMstows upon her a perfunctory kiss as he starts out In the morning for his busi ness.

Most people who have any strength of character are bilged to have a temper of some sort, even though It be well controlled.

The girl seemed a little surprised and hurt br his rejection of her sympathy, so that when he nsked her If there was absolutely no hopo her negative reply bordered on snapplness.

Salt holds a prominent place In tha list of our food accessories. From the most ancient times man bits valued salt as apparently a needful Weni In tils dietetic substances, and even lower animals exhibit au Instinct for salt such as represents an Inborn craving arising from a dictate of nature her self. The history of salt In relation to tho body Is Itself Interesting. It seems to he a, mineral compound universally distributed throughout our , tissues, Even tho freshest of our nimr.ts contain salt as pnrt and parcel of their coni pttsltlon. Equnlly notable J the fact that salt Is found in tha eteretlons of the body. It Is given off h very ap preciable quantity In th perspiration and In other forms of waste resulting from our bodily wear njid tfar.

In some way or other, as yet Imperfectly understood, salt appears to 1st necessary for main tabling what we may call the chemlenl equilibrium of the blood. One of the punishments Indicted under the old laws of Holland and one regardtsl as In severity next to that of death was the keeping of a prisoner for a certain length of time on a diet from which all salt was excluded.

How to Exercise the Bowels Your Intestines are lined Inside with millions of little suckers, that draw tho Nutpaon out of food as It passes them. But, if the food passes too slewlyj. It decays beiore It gets through. Then the little suckers draw Poison from it Instead of Nutrition. This Poison makes a Gas that Injures your system more than the food should have nourished it. You see, the food Is Nourishment or Poison, Just according to how king It stays In transit. The U3ual remedy for (his delayed passage (called Constipation) is to take a big dose of Castor OU. This merely makes slippery the passage for unloading the current cargo. It does not help the Cause of delay a trifle.- It does slacken the Bowel-Muscles more than ever, and thus weakens them for helr next task. Another remedy Is to take a strong Cathartic, like Salts, Calomel, Jalap, Phospate of Sodium, Aperient Water, or any of these mixed. What does the Cathartlo do? It mere flushes-out the Bowels with a waste ot Digestive, Juice, set flowing Into tho Intestines through the tiny suckers. But, the Digestive Juice we waste In doing this today Is noeded for tomorrow's natural Digestion. Wo cannot afford to lose it That's why Cascarets are the only safe medicine for the bowels.
