The Best and Cheapest,

The New York Independent the leading
weekly newspaper Of the world, and one
whose pages exercise the widest influence,

cation. The Independent emphasizes its If
tieth year by changing its form to that Of a
magazine and 10y reducing its annual sub
scription price from $500 to $500: single
copies from 10 to cents. The Independent
in its new form will print 3,64O pages OF
reading matter per year at cost to subscrib-
ers Of $500, while the prominent magazines
which sell for "a, 90 a year. print only about

good reading matter at one-half the cost
1t is not only the leading family weekly
newspaper but by far the cheapest and best

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF figs


is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
onl y, knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of it's remedy. 1t is
far in advance of all other laXatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get it's beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
