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
tic 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 permanently cuEing 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
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Geo. E. Clark passed over the deep,
dark river to that beautiful land be
You'd, on Monday morning at four
o'clock. The death of this worthy
man is much deplored, not only by
his esteemed family and immediate
relations, but by large number OF
sympathizing friends. His character
was so well known in the vicinity
that any eulogy is Unnecessary 1t
was with the deepest sorrow that we
heard of the death of this much es-
teemed friend. We met to mingle
our tears with the afflicted family and
his many friends. To weep on such
an occasion is not blamable: it is but
a becoming tribute to departed worth;
yet at the same time we should bow
with submission to the will of Him
who gives and takes away at his
pleasure. He hasEone to those man
sions where the wicked cease from
troubling and tina weary are at rest
where the voice of malice cannot
reach him or the tongue of calumny
disturb him. On such an occasion,
when we are deprived of one of the
most valuable members ofour society,
we consider it our duty to offer to his
memory this tribute of esteem which
is due to his worth, and to tender our
sincerest coincidence to the afflicted
wife and children. e'The Lord giveth
and the Lord taketh away. Blessed
be the name of the Lord"

THE CUP stays HERE.

Third and Deciding international
Yacht Race Won by the VigiIant.
SANDY Hook, Oct. l3.-The Vigilant
won the third and deciding race of the
Americas cup, defeating the British
yacht Valkyrie in gale by 40 seconds.
The race, which had been postponed
from Wednesday, was started at 1927,
with the Vigilant leading. The wind
was blowing 30 miles an hour from the
east. At 1880 the danger signal was
set at the signal station, but notwith-
standing this both yachts put great
amount of sail up and kept up their
topsails. 1t was plain that both boats
intended to strain every point in the
contest. The course was the same as
that Of Wednesday miles to the
windward and return.
The race was an exciting one through
out and was marred only by a mishap
which happened to the English cutter.
She was tearing along several lengths
ahead when little split appeared in
the inner reach of the cutters spin
maker. Larger and larger the rent
seemed to grow and when it had spread
10 feet out, Captain Garfield was forced
to take it in. In two minutes another
spinnaker of light Irish linen was taken
and quickly ran up. TWAS all in vain,
however, for the wind was blowing
nearly half a gale and the light can vass
was soon torn into shreds. This crushed
forever the hopes of an English victory
for one brief day, for although a
jib. balloon topsail was hoisted instead
of spinnaker, the Valkyrie fell astern
and crossed the line 500 yards behind
the Vigilaat.

Mistakes of Missionaries.

Come behind the curtain with me while
/ whisper into your ear few Of the mis-
takes made by missionaries, who talk so
much about the mistakes of the heather
One evening an English missionary in
Picking took friend who was visiting
him to a regular Chinese theater. It
happened that the play for that evening
was burlesque on foreign preaching.
A Chinaman dressed up to represent a
foreigner came upon the stage with his
arms full of books, attended by his Chi
nese servant. He began to preach mock
sermon, making the mistakes in talking
which a foreigner is likely to make.
These mistakes were received with bursts
Of laughter from the audience, to whom
the books were distributed. The fun
came to climax when the preacher,
after delivering sentence particularly
full of laughable mistakes, turned to his
servant and said: Glow did speak?
Did do pretty well?' and the servant
replied with great gravity: "The foreign
teacher speaks the Chinese language ex-
ceedingly WELL No mistakes at all were
made. New York Independent.

Fortunes From Rags.

It is astonishing what immense sums
ragpickers receive in the course of the
day. The combings of women's hair sell
at so cents a pound. This means $500 to
the knights Of the hook. ''Merinos," as
they are called, are another source of
profit. These are the scraps of tailors
and dressmakers and bring about $50, 900
year.
The old bones are another source of
profit and bring about 100000 year.
The papers, corks and crusts Of bread all
go to different industries and bring not
less fabulous sum.

The Tariff and the Panic.

From the Americdn Wool and Cotton Reporter
For those who believe the tariff mas
been and is the paramount factor In the
present depression in the industrial ana
business world it may be OF interest 10
note that certain descriptions OF WOODS
actually advanced in prices In the
spring months. clothing woods were
fully one cent per pound higher IN
March than In January, and some WOODS
two cents per pound higher. For In
stance, Ohio Xxx was quoted In January
at 90 to 30 cents, and in March at 81 to
80 cents; Michigan and above 70 70
26X cents. and 81 to 2S]& cents for the
same months. II the tariff was factor
it had not made itself manifest in prices
during these months. As we nave
shown In previous issues, the goods
market was in good shape, manufac'
turere with large orders oh hand, right
through the spring months. The de-
preston is due to a lack OF confidence
in the stability Of our currency, and
the cause should be removed.
