Horses and cattle generally dwell in
amity, but there are rare exceptions to
the rule. A Kentucky stoclman put a
horse in the same Enclosure with an
OK, and the latter, without moments
warning, began hostilities. He rushed
at the horse, and the latter turned just
in time to escape being impaled. As it
was, the horses flank was laid open,
which blow was returned by two hoofs
planted on the ribs of the OK. Then
the battle ragged fast and furious--the
horse on the defensive, the OK always
the aggressor. In the meantime, the
stockman was wild at seeing two val
liable animals thus destroying each
other. Securing stout club, he en-
tered the inclosure, but had hardly got
in before the OK made rush at him.
He turned and ran, and, as the OK fol-
lowed, the horse seized the opportunity
and planted both hind feet fairly and
squarely on his antagonists head. The
OK fell, stunned, and the man took the
opportunity to escape, dragging the
horse with him. The next day both
horse and OK died from their injuries.

for the princes initial appearance, and
when he ventured into the water they
fell upon him. Down again and again

mercy came from his lips. Finally,
when he had reached the verge of total

With better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasantef 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 tits the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs ON which it acts. Is is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
ficial 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
may be commended to the most slsillful
physicians, but IL in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the

I'VE believe that protection and reciprocity
are twin measures Of republican policy and GO

struck down both, and both must be re-estab-

admission for the necessaries OF life
which we do not produce; reciprocal
agreements ofmutual interest, which gain open
markets for us in return for our open markets
to Others Protection builds up domestic in
dustry and trade. and secures our own market
for ourselves; reciprocity builds up foreign
trade and finds an outlet for our surplus.
