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 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 is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
;lfactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,

he was accompanied by wonderful

eight richly-dressed men, seated in a
richly-ornamented chair, which was
adorned by the wings of partridges.

Every Christian Endeavor society
that gives not less than ten dollars to
the work of missions through its own
denominational board, is to have its
name engrossed upon an immense mis-
sionary roll of honor, to be displayed
at the Cleveland convention next July.
incense has come to be so much
used in English churches that the serv-
ers and acolytes and other assistants,

the high members of the church to con-
slider the matter very seriously.

on the part of old -fashi oned Lutherans
to harmonic the contending parties on
the basis of our confessions"
