With q 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 constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Svrup of Figs, prompt
| ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteeped 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 debilitating 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 isananufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laSatives or
other remedies are then not needed. IT
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
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.

NEW YORK, Feb. IA Herald dis
patch fl ON Caracas says:
Governor Fernandez, of the state of
Falcon, has issued an address to the
public declaring that peace has been
fully restored in the district of Axtios.
He thanks General Rickart and his
assistants for their services and says
the rebel leaders have been captured.
Venezuela, the governor says, requires
a union of all persons to form an i'm
passable wall against the English lion,
and it Is shameful that at time when
such questions are before the country
citizens should sink their patriotism
and piety and try to start civil war.

Rich Strike in The Cracker Creek
District.
BAKER CITY, Or, Feb. 6.-Reliable
information has been received from
Cracker Creek of rich strike in the
upper tunnel of the North Pole mine.
The ledge is seven feet wide, ore from
which is of such high grade that the
company has decided to make ship
ments to smelter rather than treat it
at the mill. This strike, in addition
to other large ore bodies in sight, will
more than ever necessitate carrying
out Alexander Baripg's plans for the
erection of an s0-stamp plant at the
mine. 1t is said this find is the same
ledge as that of tine Ten-Strike mine,
adjoining.
The White Swan Mining Company,
composed Of Iowa capitalists, has sent
out two repr esentatises who are hrsgs
adjusting the company's affairs. They
say all Indebtedness will be paid and
the mine will soon take its place
among Baker county's bullion pro.
