seem TO have gone beyond this.
With your kind permission and CO.

Fl0cks of Birds Precipitated

Late adviees from Guadalsjsrs give an account of curious Phenou ouon that occurred in that oity just before daylight on the morning of the 1lth inst. This was nothing less than the appearance there at that early hour in the morning of large nocks of birds of different spssiss, and all of them of . spssiss unknown in that oi.-.A,e. ssme of them were of she nost beaa- tiiul plumsge.
 It is supposed that the birds were blown away iron their natural habi- tation by . terrible hurricane tbat pre- vailed on the west coast, e the birds were evidently from the soast country.
 When the aocks arrived at Guads- lsiara they were @ tired that they fell on the housstops, balconies and in the streets. and were picked up by many people who were out at that late hour and especially by the policemen who were patrellipg the streets. Many of the birds that were picked up were soid next day at good pricss on account of their peculiar figures and beautiful plumags.-Two Republics.

With . better understanding of the
 w transient nature of the many phys hael ills, which vanish before proper ef- forts-gentlc efforts-pleasant e forts 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- tion 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 30 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. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene- dciai effects, to note when you pur- chase. that you have the genuine arti- ele, which is manufactured 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. laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one nay be commended to the most skillful phyacians, but if in need Of laxative, enc should have the best, and with the wsll-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely uaed and gives most general sss;sfactioa.
