tacit understanding that the Philippines

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

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
FoREIA 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 guaranty
of the excellence of it's remedy. 1t is

as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken

A Cough Remedy.

We make the following Clipping
from the Scientific American. II is
worthy the attention Of all parents at
this time Of the year: There is moth
ing more irritable to a cough as
coughing. For some time / had been
so fully assured of this that 1 deter.
mined for n minute ut least to les
t. the number nf cohghs heard in a
certain ward i'll Il hospital Of the in.
stitntion. By the PROMISE ~ rewards
and p%nnishments I-succeeded in in
ducing them simply to hold the ir
breath when tempted TO cough, and
i'll Il little while 1 was myspl: sur
pr1sed to see how some Of the children
entirely recovered from the uiSease.
Constant coughing is precisely like
scratching a w0nnd on the outside of
the body; so long as it is done the
wound will not heal. Let a person
when tempted t. cough draw a long
breath and hold it until it YARNS and
soothes every air cell and son.e bene-
fit will o be received from this
process The nitrogen which is tl us
confined acts rs nm anodyne to the
mucous membrane, allaying the de-
sire to cough and giving the throat
and Iungsa chance to heal.

TEN MEN INJURED.
Result of an Explosion in a Tunnel
!. at Cleveland.

CLEVELAND, May 11.-Ten men
were injured in an explosion of gas to-
day in the new water works. The dig
gers were 6,316 feet from shore. The
explosion was caused by one of the
men striking a match to light his pipe.
Instantly there was a binding flash of
flame and a terrific roar, filling the
tunnel with smoke and binding the dig
gers. An alarm was at once sent to the
power house on shore, and a relief ex-
pedition was organized. Blackened,
blinded and stunned, the injured men
were carefully transported to the shaft
and thence conveyed by ambulance to
hospitals.
Following are those injured: Ernest
Engle, badly burned about face, arms
and body; Villa Tejedia, burned about
head; Alex McFadden, burned about
legs; Daniel Mahon, burned about face
and body; Michael Trevilan, badly
burned; James Anderson, burned about
head and arms; Thomas COrrigan,
burned about arms and body; James
Black, burned about head and arms.
Three of the injured men died this
evening. They are: Michael Lovelin,
James Anderson and Michael McFad-
den.
Two others, Tony De Grade and
Thomas Corirgan, are expected to die
before morning.

WILLIAM E. GLADSTONE.
The Patient Has Not Left His
Room for a Fortnight.

LONDON, May ia letter written
by a member of Mr. Gladstone's family
says the patient has not left his room
for a fortnight. 1t adds that he might
have some sense of enjoyment when the
warm weather returns and turns the
whole earth into a garden, but the
truth is he has taken leave of all por-
tionS of the earth. He is possessed
with a sense of departure. His body,
mind and soul ask for no food of any
kind. His one desire is for peace. He
has longer the quiet sleep or rest with
closed eyes than when the morphia tax
ing began, but though he has consider
able physical strength, he is unable to
listen to anything but a short message
of one or two sentences. He has seen
three or four friends outside of the
family, but no conversation occurred,
nothing but a farewell blessing for
each of them.
