KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life moro, 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
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
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 isffor sale by all drug

The Purse Is 5000 aud the Date Is the

A special to the World. Of New York

CHICAGO, May 17.-Solly Smith and
johnny Griffin were matched yesterday
to fight to finish for purse Of $4,000, Of
which $3.50 will 60 to the loser. Smith
has $1,000 posted for match with
Dixon, but this will probably be with
drawn, as the champion has shown no
disposition to make the match fixture.
Negotiations were opened few days
ago for match between Griffin and
Smith, and the matter was brought to q
focus yesterday when Grifin's accept
ance of the terms OF match was secured
by telegraph from New York and Smith
at once signed articles. The match calls
for the men to fight near Chicago the

gave in. He wanted the men to weigh

STATE DIVISION OPINIONS.
A scIpio,a Opinion.

The State of California embraces more
space than many Of the old worlds EN-
pires and kingdoms. with single valleys
whose area is greater than the whole
State of Massachusetts,. This State is
770 miles in length, and in its greatest
width 800 miles in extent. 1t contains
within its boundaries 158,360 square
miles Of territory. 1t is three times the
size of New York, and nineteen times
the size OF Massachusetts,. Nearly 100
states the size of Rhode Island could be
planted inside OF its borders. California
is nearly twice the size of Italy and
greater by one-half than the whole
British Isles which constitute Great
Britain.
Northern journals ridicule the idea.
but the ultimate division of this vast
area is as certain to come as did the di-
vision of some OF the larger counties.
With each succeeding year the senti-
ment in favor of division is gaining
ground. The idea 10 by no means
q new one, and in the vast domain
south OF the great Tehachapi range
is an area of 200 miles square, ex-
tending to the Mexican line-s
land whose climatic conditions, nat
ural products, commercial interests
and the sympsthies of its people are
80 widely different that the very
thought OF state division seems like
an Inspiration. Our northern people
are beginning to realize that Southern
California is no longer dependent upon
San Francisco for its commercial rela-
tions with the great eastern msrts of
trade and commerce. In fact, South
California has now itself an established
recognition with the great east, both by
rail and ocean transit, which is fast max
ing its chief city the supply depot and
distributing point for the whole south
west.
The more ridicule northern journals
heap upon the idea of state division the
more food for thought, showing its alb
solute and ultimate advantages, will be
developed in the minds of South Cali
fornians. The merchants, farmers, hor-
and great percentage of
the property owners and people of this
section will be found the warmest advo-
Gates of state division whenever that
question becomes an issue, as it must
sooner or later Citrograph.

The circumference ol the pAraHol ia
increased by framework OF fine wire,
but not the spokes of the paraeol carried
out. On this wire 10 stretched lace,
ribbon or flowers, not in solid masses,
but in cut little tangent capricss of ends
from tho main part OF the, pRrasol. OF
course, they have no visihle means of
support and the sight of them should
make one uncomfortable. but il does
not. They look lovely. The old-fash-
ioned tiny parasols of our grandmother's
day are copied, and then increased to q
good size by ruffle of lace extended out
fiat all around ON invisible wire. Fol-
lowing out the general idea of making
things quite different from what they
are intended to be, every effort is made
in many cases to make parasol Ra un-
fit aa possible to keep Off the sun. The
idea is evidently to lot the
eun through, and with this in
view, insertion of very delicate lace
ia put around and around the
circumference, or up and down follow
ing the line of the ribs of the parasol.
These ribs that used to be endured are
now made part OF the beauty of para
sol, and they ere not hidden by a lining.
1t is at last realized that the inside of a
parasol is the more important part, and
now the beautiful gold, silver or en-.
ameled ribs thread their way shiningly
through maze of dainty rufles that
hang down from the roof OF the parasol
like fleece Of clouda.
The stick is now thingDf beauty and
is OF fine wood or enamel, or even OF gold
Or silver all the way instead of having
Just handsome handle with the resi-
ugly. Handles are elsborstely beauti-
ful and no expense need be spared. The
girl who is really up in these things will
have at least one special stick anC
handle all together, which is made ia
screw on to the various parssols
she owns. 1t is not as Ions
as the ultra aticks of Lac
year, nor quite as short as those of th'
little, old-fashioned psrasols. It is o

These parasols are really marvels of ar
tietic effect. / know you think that
parasols which are set thick with ruffles
on the Under aide are going TO look very
ugly and baggy when they shut up, but
they do not. The ribs run into ring
that 10 fastened around the stick at the
top. and the place where the ribs used
all to come together is now an open
space, with just bit of lace, perhaps,
and bow and patent sort OF network,
and the parasol closes up on this net
work, and the ring keeps 1t uniform
size below. 1t is little clumsy but not
baggy. Bags are to be had of very
dainty and soft silk of color to match
the parasol, and with a drawing string
at the top, In which you tuck the para
sol, tying the string around the handle
at the top. 1t looks odd, but it is right,
and gives man something to carry
when you take out the parssol.
After 40 much attention to an acceH-
sory of summer toilets. the dresses them
selves ehould have an inning. The first
pioGure shows two handsome and very
stylish models. The left hand one ia
especially suitable for small informal
dinners, and is very airy and dainty. 1t

The edges of the front are embroidered
with small design in pink silk, and
the loose piece inserted in front ia em-
broidered with moas roHes. 1t is cut
down trifie at the neck in front and
the embroidered crepe is arranged with
knot over the bust. The sleeves have
two puhs of the embroidered crepe.
The other costume is in brown faille.
The skirt Ia trimmed wish three bias
folds OF velvet. The round valet is
tight in back but the right front has no
darts and laps over fastening with
velvet rosette. The bretelles are brown
velvet and form round founce in back
and continue slong the right front, ter
minating in point with the rosette.
At the neck there is u plsstron of light
brown silk pointed in front and round

1t can be made separately from the waist

should be ordered to the plainest sorts.
But they are quainter and lovelier than
ever, and what is more, you can no more
pretend last years psrasol is this years

the same tendency to elaboration hori-
zontally in the parasol that there is in
