true proprietor of the property.
According to the story given local polios
by Solon Ik Wiley, who says ho haa a full

W. R. Patrick. South fide attorney. Ma
lease to Swiner. who formerly lived on
the land, had expired by mutual agree
ment two weeks ago. Tho lease waa writ

Constable It. P. Larsen of Barpy county.
Williams Is being held at tho South Bide
station and his employer, Swiner. haa en
gaged an attorney to secure his liberation.
The latter alleged that ho has a complete
right to live on the property until March
and probably afterward.

Child's Tongue
Becomes Coated
If Constipated
If cross, bilious, sick, feverish,
and full of cold,
take no chances.
"California Syrup of Figs"
can't harm tender stom
ach, liver, bowels.
Children love this "fruit laxative," and
nothing else cleanses the tender stomach,
liver and bowela so nicely.
A child simply will not stop playing to
empty the bowels, and the result is, they
become tightly clogged with waste, liver
geta sluggish, stomach sours, then your
tittle one becomes cross, half-sick, fever
ish, don't eat, sleep or act naturally,
breath Is bad, system full of cold, haa
soro thoat, stomach-ache or diarrhoea,
listen, Motherl Bee If tongue Is coated,
then give a teaapoonful of "California
Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all
the constipated waste, sour bile and un
digested food passes out of the system
and you have a well, playful child again.
Millions of mothers give "California
Syrup of Figs" because tt Is perfectly
harmless; children love it, and It never
falls tt acf. on the stomach, liver and
bowels.
Ask yocr rieupglst for a 80-eent bottle
of "California, Syrup of Figs,' which haa
full directions for babies, children of all
ages and for grown-ups plainly printed
on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits
sold here. Get the genuine, made by tho
California Fig Syrup Company. Refuse
any other kind with contempt. AdYer-
tlsement.
