rolled and tossed until the bed shook like
an aspen leaf and it finally got so serious
that the doctor won't tell you his name
gave me some morphine pills to take. The

of Fresno were aroused to a state of
indignation by the publication of an

have treated Rev. johnson roughly
had not cooler heads interposed and
promised that the preacher would
leave town on the first train.

brought by Mrs. Arthur Kitson against
DR.. William Playfair, a verdict was
rendered in favor Of the plaintiff and
awarded her $4,000 damages. The

Great interest has been felt in the case,
as it involved the right of an attending
physician to disclose any secret re-
vealed in professional confidence to
him. Tho doctor, it appears, made a
statement to his wife about Mrs. Kit

who is millionaire. withdrew an al
lowance of s25, 200 which he was max.

Gladness Comes,

With better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentlee fforts-pleasante 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, Syrup 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 facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t 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.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may 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 and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
