KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permane atly 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 SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
paci ige, also TIE name, Syrup of Figs,

WOman's influence III China.

The laws and social customs of China
make . woman's life most restricted
one in every way; end yet, in spite of
al disadvantages, in no country is fe-
male influence more powerful. The
women of China are the very backbone
Of the Nation, seeming to be born with
. natural sense of honesty which is
conspicuously absent among the men.
While the mendacity of Cinnamon is
proverbial, the women are, as a rule,
truthful, and have great strength OF
character. They make good wives,
struggling bravely to restrain their
husbands from ramshu drinking, opium
smoking and immoderate gambling,
vices for some OF which most of them
have q propensity. They are dutiful
daughters and devoted mothers. II
is only surprising that there are moi
more good men to be found among
their sons. A Chinaman's most re.
deeming quality, however, is the warm
Affection and respect he generally feell
for his mother. Their filial obedience
is indeed remarkable. A mandarin
some forty years of age will calmly re-
mark that he must go here, or that he
cannot go there, because his mother
has hidden or forbidden him to do SO
And woman's influence is not alone
confined to the domestic circle. 1t ID
well known that Li-Hung- Chang, the
great man of China, consults "Lady
Lii" on matters of Importance, and to
her credit let it be said that he is al
ways foremost in favor OF progress and
q more enlightened way of governing
the country. The Empress Dowagel
is also a woman of great intelligence
indeed, when the disadvantages of hel
education and mode of life are take,
into consideration, it must be admitted
that she is one OF the most remarkabl,
women of the age. That she is not
