for their stock has decreased rapidly.
They declare that the woman who for.
merly fondled puppies and terriers for
amusement now devotes herself to her
bicycle so enthusiastically that she has
no leisure for dogs. The demand for
large dogs has almost ceased, because
the men who used to take them on
their walks now ride q wheel, and
don't want to be bothered with dogs.
Several men who ride regularly OH the
boulevard are followed by dogs, but
this hasn't become a fad. A man who
owns a KENNEL offered to make me a

he asked me to choose from used to be

the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis

family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed SO highly by oil
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. It is therefore
all 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.

other remedies are then not needed. Ii
