The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value of the remedy as medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose of
manufacturing and selling laxative
remedy, which would be more
pleasant TO the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process of manufact-
uring, figs are used, as they arr
pleasant TO the taste, and healthfu]
in their tendencies, but the medicina.
properties OF the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination Of
plants known to be incidentally lax
alive, and to act most beneficially.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup Of
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.

A LIFE PARTNERSHIP.
The Oyster and Quahaug United Into
One SheIifiSh.

Oysters have well-known habit of
attaching themselves to any object they
may come in contact with in the water.
An old shoe or boot, a bottle, another
oyster or small quahaug are familiar
examples, but in almost every instance
where an oyster and quahaug are found
grown TO each other one is much smaller
than the other. Exceptions to this rule
are SO uncommon that when an oyster
man of Pawtuxet found an oyster and
quahaug attached to each other and of
the same size recently, the oldest clam
mers and oystermen in PawteXet said
they had never seen the like before.
The oyster was a large one, at least
six or seven years old, and the quahaug,
to which it was attached at the hinge
of the shell, was within a year of the
same age, and had also attained its
full growth. Both bivalves were hand
some specimens, and both were alive.
The two united, yet separate. were
placed on, exhibition in the window of
Green's fish market, where a large part
of the male population of the village as
sembled at some time during the day
CT evening. There they We're viewed
by men of many years of experience in
handling quahaugs and oysters, who
all had never seen another instance
where full-grown oyster and quahaug
had united.
Now, alas, only the shells remain to
tell the tale of this natural curiosity.
Fred Remington, clerk in the market,
opened both bivalves last week, and ex-
tracted the meat without breaking the
hinges or separating the shells. With
the edges of each shell slightly apart
showing the interior, the two are more
of a curiosity than before.

Divers DANGERS.

The greatest danger to those who dive
into the sea for valuables that have been
sunk is that of falling asleep.
On hot day the contrast between the
heat above and the delicious GOODNESS
below water is apt to make a diver
sleepy. One of these men recently stated
that he once slept half an hour at the
bottom Of a wreck where he was laying
pipe.
Supposing that it had happened in a
channel where the tide runs so swiftly
that diver can work only during the
one hour of slack water, the deadly rush
of tide would have snapped the lifeline
and hose. Then in working wrecks
there is danger Of getting jammed in
between freight, or getting the hose or
line entangled. When the hose snaps at
a great depth the tremendous pressure
kills the diver. He is frightfully dis
torted by it.-New York Journal.

GRANT ON THE FIELD.
Was Cool and Deliberate, but Pain
fully Affected by Sight of Blood.

While the most critical movements
were taking place, General Grant mani
tested no perceptible anxiety, but gave
his orders, and sent and received COM
municationS with a GOODNESS and de-
liberation which made marked i'm
preston upon those who had been
brought into contact with him for the
first time on the field of battle. His
speech was never hurried, and his man
ner betrayed no trace of excitability or
even impatience. He never exhibited to
better advantage his peculiar ability in
moving troops with unparalleled speed
to the critical points on the line of battle
where they were most needed, or, as 1t
was sometimes called, feeding a
fight" There was a spur on the heel
of every order he sent, and his subordi-
mates were made to realize that in bat
tie it is the minutes which control
events. He said, while waiting for
Burnside to get into position and at
tack: 'The only time 1 ever feel i'm
patient is when I give an order for an
important movement Of troops in the
presence of the enemy, and am waiting
for them to reach their destination
Then the minutes seem like hours"
He rode out to important points of the
line twice during the day, in company
with General Meade and two officers Of
the staff. 1t was noticed that he was
visibly affected by his proximity to the
wounded, and especially by the sight of
blood. He would turn his face away
from such scenes, and show by the ex-
preston of his countenance, and some
times by a pause in his conversation,
that he felt most keenly the painful
spectacle presented by the field Of bat
tie. Some reference was made to the
subject in camp that evening, and the
General said: Il cannot bear the sight
of suffering. The night after the first
days fight at Shiloh 1 was sitting on
the ground, leaning against tree, try
ing to get some sleep. 1t soon began to
rain so hard that I went into a log
house near by to seek shelter; but I
found the surgeons had taken possess
sion of it. and were amputating the
arms and legs Of the wounded, and
blood was flowing in streams. I could
not endure such a scene, and was glad
to return to the tree outside, and sit
there till morning in the storm"
thought of this remark while sitting at
his bedside twenty-one years afterward,
when he in the last days Of his fatal ILL
ness, was himself undergoing supreme
physical torture.-"Campaigni With
Grant," by General Horace Porter, in
the Century.

When People Catch Cold.

The cold spots" meaning thereby the
surface areas peculiarly susceptible to
cold are principally the nape Of the neck
and the lower part Of the back of the
head, the front Of the abdomen, and the
shins. The acute discomfort and the
sense of impending disaster which re-
suits from the steady play Of current
of cold air upon'th neck from behind
are well known. The necessity of
keeping the abdomen warmly clad is
also generally recognized, though per-
haps not as generally carried into prac-
tice. Curiously enough. few people are
conscious of the danger they run by
exposing the usually inadequately pro-
tected shins to currents of cold air. This
is the usual way in which colds are
caught on omnibuses. When driving one

landers. golfers, and cyclists, invari-
ably take the precaution of turning the
thick woolen material down over the
shins, the better to protect them against
loss of heat, though, incidentally, the
artificial establishment of the calves
may not be altogether foreign to the
manoeuvre. This is an instance of how

Pianos That Catch Cold.

Half the pianos of this country catch
winter colds exactly as we do. They get
hoarse, or have a cough, or stiff note,
or some similar complaint which can
not be cured by home remedies, but
requires tedious and expensive doctor

In order to prevent these avoidable
ailments piano should be kept in a

The Latest Umbrella.

The newest umbrellas have conspicu-
ously long handles. 1t is an old fashion
revived. For years the handles of the
best umbrellas, though richly orna-
mented, have been short. Now they are
being made from twelve to fifteen inches
in length. This gives the umbrella
makers a good opportunity for intro
ducing decorative work
The umbrella most in favor with
women at present is made of a good,
strong quality of changeable taffeta
silk. Blue and green is a favorite color
combination. These umbrellas are
made with name plate fastened to the
tie. The latest idea for the name plate
is to have it made of gilded silver and
ornamented with enamel matching the
tints Of the umbrella in color.
The ferrule of these new umbrellas,
instead of being wood, with a steel cap,
is made quite elaborate. Some Of them
are Of silver. Others are made of the
same material as that used for the han
die.

creed enough to see in him a career to
initiate. ''Creeds first, deeds after
wards the opposing words of those
who, by their human folly. would have
darkened the light that rose in the hui
man heart from his career.
Through him we see that those who
never understand their grandeur. whose
hearts never throb with noble purpose,
whose powers never rejoice to run the
race of life. are those who look outward
from within perpetually, as though the
universe circled for them alone. To
such, wrapped UP in self. whose souls
needs must be saved though all others
perish, willing to take but unwilling to
give, dead though appearing to live; to
all such his life gives rebuke. From
him we learn a truth that the great
world around is fast grasping: that he
who gives most gets most; he Is filled
with good things and crowned with
glory and honor imperishable. who
scattereth all of good that he has, that
his soul is best saved whose soul is
self-reckoned as naught if he can but
save others. To breathe such an atmoS-
phere of spirit after groveling in agony
as some of us do, afraid TO live and
yet more afraid TO die, is to move from
the air of the dungeon into the ecstacy
of the mountain top. Life lived in his
way has infinite width to it; ii is its
own great reward. yet other rewards
there be. 1t bushes the clamoring pas
sions, 1t gives man world citizenship;
1t enables him to see a kinsman in every
fellow; it thrills him even in obscurity
with a sense of brotherhood TO all the
great souls of the ages; it guides the
hand upward into the Divine, and the
narrow, darkened way broadens into
golden, shimmering spread of light up
which to travel to the real center of
things.
Whether avowedly or not matters lit-
tie, it is his spirit that thrills the clos
ing years of our century. Against the
fatalism and materialism of Mahom-
med, against the selfishness and pessina-
ism Of the Hindoo anxious to escape
away into Inconsistencies, against the
slavish worship of the past by the Con-
fucians, we see a virile, aggressive,
hopeful force at work in every nation
that has fallen under the influence Of
Jesus. Hide-bound Judaism never
emancipated the human mind, as his
influence has done. The growing
thoughtfulness of man for man is his
work; the spirit of Jesus is abroad to
bring us all together in one as human
beings with mutual obligations. He it
is who makes us feel a kinship to the
fallen woman and the fallen man; TO
the agonized and the children; for are
they not all bearing the image of hui
manity, which he, the great unselfish
one. the friend of sinners, also bore?
Yet some of us are cropping onward
as If in a night-black passage. We
glance bewildered at the events the
dangers, the pleasures of life, and then
pass away forever without understands
