THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRIp OF FIGS

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.

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 its remedy. 1t is
lar In advance of all other laxatives.
as 1t acts on the kidneys, liver and

the representative of Aguinaldo. was in
teryiewed to-day by the correspondent
here of the Associated Press. AgOncil-
los apartments at the Hotel Continental
are on the same floor as the rooms Occu-
pied by the United States peace commits
%SioncrS. He is DESTROYS of seeing the COM
missioners and placing AguinaldO's views
of the future Of the Philippines before
them.
Would the Filippinos accept annexa-
ton or a protectorate of the United
States?' Agoncillo was asked.
1--WE want independence" ne an
swered, but the Filipinos have a recog-
nized government. of which Aguinaldo is
president, and it will determine out atti-
tudc toward a protectorate or anneNa-
ton"
Should the United States take all or
any part Of the Philippine islands would
the Filipincs fight the United States as
they have fought SPAIN
Il cannot answer without possible err
ror: but / think it would be unwise for
the United States to divide the Philippine
Islands. They should take all or none"
IF the United States gives NJ the
Philippine Islands,. will the Filipinos con
tinue to fight the Spanish?
Il think So"
rs is true the Filipinos do not object
to the continuance of the native priests:'
Yes. but the religious orders should
be abolished.'
Agoncillo. says he has not come here to
seek Il hearing before the commission. but
to learn the determination of the commits
sioners regarding the Philippine Islands
and to communicate it to Aguinaldo.
Agoncillo, thus far. has not cOmmunica-
ted with our commission: and the Span
ISL commission, while unwilling. to sum
mon AgonciIlo. is exceedingly anxious to
know what representations, IT any, he
| will make to the Americans.
