less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products TO

the value to health of the pure liquid

remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting

beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
II has given satisfaction to millions and

profession, because it acts on the Kid

every Objectionable substance.

, q vigorous-looking young man who stood be-
side curious box.llke arrangement, says the
New York Sun. The box was four feet or SO
high, the same width and a foot deep across
the top. Two lerge oval holes were 10 the
middle OF the front Of the box and there were
| two others, somewhat smaller, directly under
| them. Iron levers were attached to the side
OF the structure On the wall above the box
were iron boxes supplied with cranks on
which was the advice: Pull knob this
way.n
| No one seemed TO have desire to try the
new-fangled machine. Finally large red

through the curious crowd and sat in the arm
chairs placed before the apertures. "Stck

man In charge With some difficulty this was
done. Then the man In charge pulled the
] knob, and from behind screen which reached
from the box to the rear of the store came a
buzzing sound. The man pulled his feet out.
Evidently there was something strange In the
box.
"Thats all right; nothlng'n hurt you" ex
claimed the man in charge. "Put'em back. "
Soon the man took his feet out and placed
them IN the smaller holes When he next
took them out the shoes were highly polished,
and he paid his nickel and departed amid
the cheers Of the crowd.

Something pushed them back. The reporters
feet were not heavy enough to Withstand tht
shock which they received "Put 'em in the
hole again and grasp that HANDLE" said the
operator, ''and I'll regulate the speed bit. ,
The reporter braced himself and felt some
thing swishng around his shoes.
This something was an oval brush. Inside
of 1t was a revolving wheel. The brush frs
cleans the shoes. Then from a tin box within
the structure liquid backing drops down upoi
the Shoes The brush again comes into ser
vice and polshcs the shoes. Only the side
of the shoes are polished, however. Sticking
the shoes into the lower and smaller holes, tn
toes are cleaned and polished.
Before the reporter left tho store the ma
