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 principle 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; efectually 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
and being well Informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

The belief in a Chinese Columbus
was first allowed by scholars only
about fifty years ago. The claim is
that a Buddish priest in the fifth CEN
Jury crossed the Pacific to this CONT
nent and returned, making written
report Of his discovery. The report
stir exists. 1t was translated into
French in 1871 by NJ. de Gulgnes. 1t
gives narrative of voyage eastward
by a priest for 10000 H. where he
found country which he named Flu
sang. People similar to the Indians
were described, as we'll as American
plants. The only doubt about the
matter is as to the distance meant by
10000 Ii. The priest may have
reached only some island in the Pacific
ocean.

Sold His Wife.

1t appears that wives are still
looked upon in England at least in
parts of the country, as goods and
chattels, to be disposed Of at the will
OF their lords and masters. 4 Shelf
field paper of recent date has an
amusing account Of the sale Of wife
by an iron worker of Marlborough to
a miner whom she liked better. The
transaction took place in the presence
of the parties directly interested, the
wife parents and couple of friends
The separation between husband and
wife lad been by mutual consent, but
the husband thought he was entitled
TO some recOmpense for the loss of
his wife's services and set the price
at f9. The wife thought that this
was too much, and the miner averred
that he was not prepared to pay over
20 shillings, which he thought SUI
fcient sum. After good deal of
haggling the husband offered to take
e, but this was not acceptable to
the purchaser, and they finally COM
promised on 80 shillings. A formal
agreement was then written out, duly
signed and delivered, and the wife
went off with her new owner.
