XHTith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle etforts-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-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why IL is the only
remedy with millions Of families, andis
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 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
forn;a Fig Syrup Co. only and sold BY
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
cn% sS.le system is regular, laxatlves or
,aner remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one

Coffee Goes Lower.

Another move in the coffee war between
the Sugar Trust and Arbucklc Bros, the
New York roastcrs, was made Wednesday,
This was Il cut of a half a cent per pound
and in the reduction the Sugar Trust took
the initiative.
Under advice from headquarters, w. E.
Kelley & Co., 1913 East Lombard street,
Baltimore agents of the Woolson Spice
Company, of Toledo, Ohio, made the
reduction in the local market This cut
was made early i'll the day and proved a
surprise, as for the past three weeks the
situation has been unchanged. Mr.. Kelley
said that the decline was caused by the
lower prices of green coffee.
After this action by the Woolson Com
pany, which is controlled by the trust a
similar reduction was made by Arbuckle
Brothers. Local roasters also followed
the cut. Since the fight began the total
reductions which are made on standard
brands Of roasted coffee amout to three
cents pound.
The fight was started by the action Of
Arbuckle Brothers in going into the
sugar refining business after failing to
induce the Sugar Trust to give them
certain privileges in handling the latter's
products When the Arbuckles took this
stand the Sugar Trust decided to go into
the coffee roasting business as means of
bringing them to terms.
