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 a perfect lax
ative; efIectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and feyers
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 90 cent 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.

We have known Mr.. Clarke tor

When he went to Arkadelphie his
was the only journalistic craft that
served the people on the banks OF

the danger to life and limb from

Only q few months ago IN old chum
of his m officer on one of our ships OF

child in the adjoining apartment. Said
the youngster:
"Who is the foreign devil that has
come TO see papa?',
Hush, " said the nurse. 1.-THE gen.

The Primitive Fishhook.

The first implement used BY man for
catching fish with a line was not q hook.
It was a pointed piece of bone or flint,
q simple baitholder, and the line. posi-
bly, q length or so of some dried vine or
grass, was tied to the middle of the
piece. The fish swallowed the whole
bait, bone and all, and % The 5irst inn
plement was what we would call D gorge
hook today. In time bronze was substi-
tuted for bone, but the form of the first
implement was retained. Untold ages
passed before the first fishhook was
made, and, strangely enough, when q
prong was fashioned ON the hook, the
prong turned outward and not inward.
