SAN BERNARDINO, June 24.-At an
early hour this morning the coroner was
notified that Albert Sibley. an inmate
of the asylum at Highland, had COM
mitted suicide by hanging himself with
sheets taken from the bed and tied
through the bars of the window in his
room. Sibley was a young man only
30 years of age, and was committed from
Ventura. He was released over a year
ago as almost cured. His mother re-
turned him to the asylum about two
months ago, as the signs of insanity
had again appeared in more violent
form. Since his return he has improved
to such an extent that he was one of
the paroled inmates. The inquest was
held this forenoon, and no one held re-
sponsible for the DEATH

was called into the house on an errand,
and was only absent for ten minutes.
When the babe was lifted from the
trough there were no signs of life. A
doctor was called and worked at re-
suscitatfon for over half an hour but
without success. The coroner's jury
was impaneled late in the evening and
gave verdict in accordance with the
facts stated.

Gladness Comes

XXIith 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 duo to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a 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, 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, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillf,ll
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-infor1ned everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
