beneficial properties of perfect lax
atiye; effectually cleansing the system

and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys. Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in 50c and 81 bottles, but it is man.

II Is ALL TRUE.

The Marion (Michigan) Dispatch
contains the following;
VIII. Benedict, lately connected with
this office, recently addressed letter 10
the Weiser, Idaho, SIGNAL in reference to
the prospect of work in that region and
the following is the reply he received;
Weiser, Idaho, Aug. 81 '93
WILL BENEDICT:
Dear Sir--I would not advise you to
come west unless you could get job in
advance Don't come in search of one
The west is paralyzed through the vicious
financial legislation of the east and every
thing is on the down grade. Newspaper
patronage is dwindling away, advertisers
are retrenching, not cent can be collected
from the poverty-stricken rural population
because there is not 81 90 in circulation To
$40. 90 debt No money To be had and
farmers can get no cash for their produce
sold at starvation prices; and on top of
this our government has declared that
still more of the inadequate supply of
money shall be swept out of existence
The effect on the newspapers is that many
have suspended, Others have reduced in
size and none are making money. In con-
sequence there are idle printers everywhere
and no loose jobs.

ing families own subject to incumbrance
and 81. SO per cent own free ofincumbrance.
Among 100 farm families, | hire their
FARMS Is own with incumbrance and AZ
without incumbrance. On the owned
farms their are liens amounting TO 81 375,
10, which is 0.04 per cent of their val
ne, and this debt bears interest at the aver
age rate of 1885 per cent, making the
average annual interest charge $l20 to
each family. Each owned and incumbered
farm on the average Is worth $1,000 and
is subject TO a debt of Sll90.
The corresponding facts for homes are
that Abb per cent OF the home families
hire and 5S.47 per cent own their homes;
that of the homecoming families 81, f5
per cent own free of encumbrance and 5. 50

ed homes aggregates 1890, 20S, or BLOT
per cent of their value, and bears interest
