When the Swallows Homeward Fly

When the Swallows HomeWard Fly
People teg,n to ask themselves,
Where shall | spend the summer
An ocean voyage, an inland jaunt,
a coastwise trip, which shall it be?
In either case, one of the most use
full travelling companions, one that
never fails in an emergency to
which it is adapted, is Hostetter's S
Stomach Bitters, which remedies
sea sickness, nausea, headache, bill
iousness and malarial complaints.
Dyspepsia, rheumatism, nervous
ness and kidney trouble are also
remedied by the great Alternative
and preventive. Tourists by sea
and land, mariners, emigrants and
western pioneers all testify to its
defensive and remedial efficacy.
Bodily and mental fatigue are
counteracted by it, and it prevents
maladies which would otherwise be
brought on by exposure. No one
should start on a summer outing
without it, 1t is the most genial
and reliable of summer toniCs, and
suits the most fastidious palate.

If it required ah annual outlay of
$4,000 to insure a family against
any serious consequences from an
attack of bowel complaint during
the year, there are many who
would feel it their duty to pay it,;
that they could not afford to risk
their lives, and those of their FAM
lily, for such an amount. Any one
can get this insurance for 25 cents,
that being the price of a bottle of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhea Remedy, In almost every
neighborhood some one has died
from an attack of bowel complaint
before medicine could be procured
or a physician summoned. One or
two doses of this remedy will cure
any ordinary case. 1t never fails.

so small an amount2 For sale by

With better understanding of the
w 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 a constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupo of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed 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 il acts. 1t is therefore
I'll 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
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest md is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

The sundry civil bill is now under consider

day. II this estimate be correct next

tee to the local budget, and the report on
it to the Senate is looked for in about a

dar is now well filled with appropriation
