KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends 10 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
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
news, 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

DECLINE OF IMMIGRATION.


The volume of immigration to the
United States has been declining for
some years past. The figures for the ifs
cal year ending June 30, 1894, showed a
decrease of over $4,000 as compared
with those for the preceding year, and
the figures for the twelve months ending
June last show a still further decrease,
though one not at all in proportion to
that recorded for the preceding year, the
decrease amounting to a little over 81, 600.
The figures given by the Bureau of Statis-
tics of the Treasury Department, it may
be remarked, comprise about 80 per cent.
of the immigration to the country at ports
reporting such arrivals, but do not in
clude immigration from British North
America and Mexico. The total for the
year ending June 80, 1894, was 81, 6l2,
and that for the year ending June, 1895,
was 276, 1856. As might be expected, fig
ures for the most important countries
contributing immigration to the United
States showed decreases, though in few
instances comparisons disclose an aug
mentation OF numbers. OF the more i'm
portant countries, Germany, Italy, Russia
Except Poland), Austria excepting
Poland, and Sweden and Norway show
decreases. Increases are noted in the
immigration from Hungary, from Eng
land, and from Ireland. There is a
slight increase in the immigration from
France and in that from Denmark. The
most marked increase was in the immi
grafton from Ireland, which increased
during the year by over 1900. Another
marked change in the course of immigra
ton is from Germany, which sent ovei
$4,000 fewer immigration in the twelve
months ending June, 1895, than in the
preceding year-Frankfort Capital.

A MILLION BICYCLES.

The historian who will write the true
history Of the closing wears of the nine.
teenth century will be compelled to say
a great deal about the growth, influence,
and effects of the bicycle habit during
that period.
The points which he will feel obliged
to cover are as numerous as they are in
teresting. The bicvcle, as the legitimate
successor OF the velocipede of quarter
of century ago, was taken up as an APP
pliance for exercise and pleasure. These
it has furnished to an extent not antIci-
pated by its most enthusiastic devOtees.
In addition, it has passed beyond any
limits Of mere pleasure or exercise. 1t
has forced itself on the attention of the
great war powers Of the earth. Itremains
to be seen what warlike purposes il may
serve; but it is safe to say that in the
next European war the first man of the
invading force in the enemy's country
will be mounted on wheel. 1t has con-
quered society. Aristoeracy in England
and France, as well as in this country.
has recognized its worth. In adopting it
the idle and luxurious classes have rem
dered a service by enormously Increasing
its popularity. The hundreds of thous-
ands who might have hesitated between
desire and dread in the uncertainty as to
whether it was the proper thing have had
their doubts cleared away. A custom
which has the sanction of the Faubourg
st. German, Of the British peeragge, of
the Michaux Club of Newport, and of
the local Four Hundred in each one of
our great cities is as firmly established as
the Constitution with its subsequent
amendments.
In this country it is creating, as we
have said, social and economical condi
tons worthy of the attention of the his
tOrian. 1t may not be true, as Mrs. An
thony says, that woman is riding to
suffrage on the bicycle" but it is I'M
dOubtedly true that she is riding to
greater freedom, to a nearer equality
with man, to the habit of taking care OF
herself, and to new views on the subject
of clothes philosophy The woman on
tine wheel is altogether a novelty, and is
essentially product OF the last decade OF
the century.
In this country alone the sales of BIZ
cycles for this year are estimated at half
a million. The total number of BICYCLES
in use estimated at a million. These fig
ures are mere guesses, but there is moth
ing incredible or improbable about them.
1t is certain that we are only at the be-
ginning OF what is called the bicycle craze
and the indications are that the craze is
now getting ready, as is more likely. to
supersede all other methods OF lOcomotion

ITEMS OF INTEREST.

When rivulets are full the rivers are
swollen to unusual proportions. When
farmers and planters have plenty, mer
chants, manufacturers and employees
each get their share The railways are
the servants Of adverse circumstances,
and the masters Of themselves only when
worked to full capacity. The sunlight
kisses a prosperous country that is re-
joicing in plentiful harvests, fair wages
and moderate prices.
The United States expends Sl5O,OCO,-
600 yearly for imported sugar and sells
twice that amount Of raw cotton. In
1894 the consumption Of pig iron was
about 100000 tons; this season it will be
about 100000 tons. The iron that cost
3 to 3 years ago about Sl2 in Pennsyl
vania and 50 in Alabama to manufacture,
now costs 80 and So respectively, and is
sold nearly as high as in 1892 Since the
recent great advance or doubling Of pri-

early earnings estimated at l25 to 40
millions Of dollars, netting about Is to p
millions Of dollars annually. The worlds
production of coal in 1894 is estimated at
about 554,OOO,OOO tons. The United
Kingdom yearly produces about the
same amount, and mines the most. The
United States stands second, and annu-
ally gains from to 10 per cent. Large
imports, diminished exports, monthly
deficiency and excessive rates of ex-
change, tend to force the Government to
continue to lean on the Bond Syndicate
