KNOWLEDGE.

Brings comfort and impl ovement 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 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 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

He saw the blessed light of heaven more,
Shorn of his noble strength and forced to grind
In prison. and at last led forth to be

Upon the pillars of the temble laid
His desperate hands, and in its overthrow
Destroyed himself, and with him those who made

Expired, and thousands persisted in the fall

One of the favorite arguments
in favor of the mental superior
ity of man over woman is that
his brain weighs inore.than hers.
Just as if by similar analogy
man might not be proved i1feri-
or to any heavy and consequently
big. Drained animal And just
as if it had not been proved by
innumerable examples that small
bodied men with proportionately
small brains possesses quite as
high degree of intelligence and
mental capacity as the physical
heavy weights ! 1t is not guam
tity, but quality, that counts in
brains. Moreover, it is obvious
ly only fair if size and weight of
the body be taken into account.
The average woman is smaller
and weighs less than the average
man, and in proportion to her
size and weight statistics show
her brain to make quite as good
a showing as his. - Chicago
