Corsica.


According to British consular re-
port, invalids in search of winter sta
ton might do worse than try the cap
ital of the Island of Corsica. The av-
erage temperature is three to four de-
grees higher than that of the Riviera.
Ajaccio, moreover, being thoroughly
sheltered by the surrounding noun
tains and the aspect of the bay being
due south, the dreaded ''mistral" is un-
known. 1t is admitted, however, that
there are some drawbacks. Living in
the island is dear. nearly all articles of
consumption usually required by for
eign residents having to be imported.
Altogether, affairs in Corsica do not ap-
pear to be in a satisfactory state. The
island and its population are described
as "eminently poor" and were it not
for the assistance bestowed by France
the Corsicans would be forced either Il,
starve or bestir themselves-the latter
alternative appearing to be one from
which they are decidedly averse.

Gladness Comes.

With better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant Efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is,
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact. that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore.
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists. -,

and the system is regular, laxatives Or
other remedies are then not needed. II

elected Every year after that saw him
hustling for some candidate of his own
color, and in several cases these candi-
dates were successful. AT st. Louis he
worked among the southern negro dele
gates and helped swing a good many
of them to gold. In the caucuses held
this fall by the republicans Mr.. Allen
was defeated in his ward for the nomi-
nation to the house. Without sulking
over his defeat he went in for the NOM
ination to the governors council, be-
lieving that no one else wanted it. No
one else did, excepting the man on the
other side. and Mr. Sullivans friends
thought he had such dead sure thing
that no attention was paid to his inter-
ests. ''D' coon won't cut any ice." said
Mr.. Sullivan's henchmen, and 1t was let

much for thinking so. The district had
always been democratic. and the near
est the republicans had ever come to
carrying it was two years ago, when
the democratic party of 5000 was re-
duced to 1000 by A. b. baltimore, a
negro. who had been pulled into poll
ties and doomed by Mr.. Allen. Last
year Sullivan carried the district by
5000.
