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 presen' ing
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; 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 medica,
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weaken
ing them and it is perfectly free from
svcry Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in 5Oc and 81 bottles, but it is man

FROM ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW.


$. T. Johnstons Says tho SLOGAN ID u Good
Place for Poor Men to Avoid.
Special to The independent.
SPOKANE. April IA good number OF
prospectors and people looking for business
locations are already hocking back from
tho Sloosn country, having ascertained that
they were too early in the field. Many e1-
press the belief that the country has been
vioiously oyer-hoomed by townaite pro-
p~rietors, spectators and the railroads, ana
that the extent of the mineral bodies does
not warrant such general excitement. >.
Il. Johnstonc. a mining man or some
prominence in the early days at LeRdville,
says he has not so much confidence IN the
new camp us he had before his recent Vlslt
there. Mr.. tombstone has made a special
study of the mineralogioal conditions in
dicating permanence in gslena veins. ana
he declares that the several prospects In
the SLOGAN which he examined do not
promise improvement as depth ID pai nsu.
Many will inevitably pinch out" alto
cether a few fest below the surface. Or
course his does not argue that the camp
will not be @ good one, for it has been the
experience of all mining camps, with the
notable exception ofathe Aspen, Col, group
and the Coeur d'Alenea, that the quality OF
the ore deteriorates with depth; but the
frantic olsmor of the British american
boomers to the effect that SLOGAN mines
are inexhastable and enormously rich. IL
misleading and apt to prove Disappointing
to future visitors. Mr.. Johnstone states
that there ia little employment for labor IN
that section. living is expensive. there are
hundreds of men already there out OF work
