KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to 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 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
neys, 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
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

it upon the most fashionable avenue OF

For small bills the poorer quarters are
chosen, and the richer ones for the larger
denominations. The bills are sent to
some one who is the recognized head,
and he distributes them to his different
branches in the most secret of ways.
Sleek Gang.
A very skillful detective of the secret
service tells how he repeatedly tracked
counterfeit bills to one aristocratic neigh
borhood, and finally suspicion pointed to
one man. He was a Well-dressed, hand
some young fellow, passing as a law stu
dent He had a room in a fashionable
boarding house.
The secret service detective took a
room in Il rear house and fitted tele-
scope in the blind For many days he
waited in vain. though always hearing
of new counterfeitS in that part OF the
city. The blinds opposite were always
closed. One morning a gust of wind
blew them open. just in time to reveal
a sWagger group standing before the
table in the young mans room.
There was q fashionably dressed young

bills. The young woman, it seems,
passed as the "sister" of the young man
and came to his room at will. The dap
per caller was friend and the tramp
was none other than a boarder in the
house who was also one of the gang,
and who disguised himself as tramp
and got in and out of the house pro-
tected by his coat-collar and his friends.
Their plan was to "paste" a certain
neighborhood, then move to another.
Each day the gentlemanly head of the
concern, the bogus law student, bought
cigars with a bogus So bill at the differ
ent cigar stores and received a handful
of good bills and silver in return. In a
wealthy neighborhood bad bill goes
unnoticed until time to deposit it at the
bank, when the cigar dealer has no idea
where he received it.
More Bad Bills.
There is a 81 bill with the head of
Washington upon it, in which the face
of the Father of His Country is so poor
that you ridicule it at once. This is a
counterfeit bill. And there is $40 bill
drawn. The eagle, the emblem of lib
erty, is a sorry-looking bird, draggled
and scratched instead of being spirited
and clear.
There is a $40 of Gen. Sheridan's face.
The star on his epaulet is our-Dointed
when it should be five. -*And there is a
500 bill in which the eagle bird has al
most no tail. 1t is thought that in
mounting the plate the eagles tail did
not ''come up well,'' as printers say
If list of all the known counterfeit
bills were given, it would look so long
that eyes of suspicion would rest upon
every bill, for the game of counterfeit
ing has been going on ever since money
began. But in the United States coun-
q oil
and the bills are tracked and gathered
up before they do half the damage they
work in other countries.

MUSTARD PLASTERS.
A Berlin Girl Uses Them as a Beautify-
ing Cosmetic.

A Berlin Girl Uses Them Beautify-
ing Cosmetic.
To a Berlin factory girl belongs the
credit of having found new cosmetic.
1t had been noticed for a long time
that every Saturday she would COM
plain about toothache, which always en-
tirely disappeared by Sunday morning.
AS sure as Saturday came around she
would be seen with her face swathed
in bandages, but otherwise attended to
her duties as usual.
Finally the people became curious as
to what caused this regular occurrence
of the evil, and one day the foreman
of the factory loosened her bandage, and
10! there were two strips of mustard
plaster on her checks. After close ques-
tioning she confessed that she had done
the same thing every Saturday in order
to have nice red cheeks when going to
church Sunday morning.
The plasters hurt her somewhat, but
she preferred a little pain in order to
appear more winsome ut church in the
morning and at the dance in the after
noon. Where this girl succeeded others
would fail, because there are faces SO
ugly that the strength Of mustard plas-
tiers could not draw admirers to them

Frozen Mutton.

Experts have always declared that
they can distinguish frozen mutton from
the homegrown article, but if rumor lies
not they will be unable to do SO in the
future. An important discovery in the
frozen meat trade is announced. It is
said that process has been found out
by which frozen meat can be thawed in
such a way that it cannot be distin-
guished by anybody from the home
grown article. Three caroasses. it is al

were bought by experienced purchasers

The first political speech Abraham Lin
coin made was after q sale at Pappsville.
What he said there is not remembered;
but an Illustration of the kind of man he
was interpolated into his discourse, made
a lasting impression. A fight broke out
in his audience while he was on the
stand, and observing that one of his
friends was being worsted, he bounded
into the group of contestants, seized the
fellow who had his supporter down, threw
