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 O
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist n 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
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts On the kidneys, liver and

Easily Enough.

Here is Sioux City (Ia.) Sunday
school story:
They were studying in the catechism
about the wonderful greatness and pow
er of God. "Can God do everything?"
asked the teacher 1t was generally ad-
mitted that he could. Then the teacher
rather mischievously propounded stic-
kler perhaps as a test of faith. Gould
God make two and two equal five?" he
asked. The query rather startled the
little girls in the class. and their faces
took on worried, puzzled expression
They had never thought of such thing
as that, and it looked as If their faith
was wavering. The teacher waited with
O rather amused smile on his face. Then
up shot little hand. "Well, asked
the teacher, what do you think about
iti" Eyes, sir, he can," was the prompt
and certain response. Now it was the
teachers turn to look surprised. well,
how can God make two and two equal
five?" "By adding one, was the tri-
umphant answer, and the mischievous
teacher couldn't dispute it.-Sioux City
Journal.

TIGER AND BULL.
A Fierce Battle, In Which the Tiger Wa,
Badly Beaten.

A Fierce Battle, In Which the Tiger Was
Badly Beaten.
The Paris letter Of the London Post
gives details of an extraordinary enter
tainment given at the Plaza de Madrid
IN the presence of 1900 spectators. This
was q combat between royal Bengal
tiger and an Andalusian fighting bull.
The tiger, Cesar, was full grown
brute belonging to Spessardi, the train
er, who had never been able to do any
thing with it and had, indeed. once
nearly fallen a victim to its ferocity.
He sold it for 6, 900 francs to the director
of the plaza.
A cage II yards square by A in height
had been erected in the middle of the
ARENA and the animals were brought on
in vans, the bull being the first to be
released into the Enclosure The brute
Immediately began to run round and
round his prison, believing and throw
ing up sand and gravel with his hoofs.
The instant the tiger entered the cage
he gave roar and bounded Oh the bull,
avoiding the horns, and fixed on his
TANKS and belly with both teeth and
claws The bull remained still for
few seconds. and then seemed to be sink
ing backward to the ground. The spec
tators thought that all was over, but
the tiger let go for a second to take an
other hold. and in the brief interval
was kicked over by the wild plunges of
the bull. Before the tiger had time to
recover the bull was ON him, and, sink
ing his horns into the striped hide, 1t
tossed the tiger into the air. This was
repeated four or five times, the bull
varying his tactics occasionally by bang
ing his adversary against the bars.
When the bull stopped, the tiger lay
limp on the ground, and the crowd,
thinking he was dead, cried, "Bravo,
torop
The bull stood stamping for a mo-
ment in tho middle Of the cage, and
then, seeing the tiger did not move, APP
preached and smelled him. But Cesar
was only shamming death and seized
the bulls muzzle in his powerful jaws
so the animal could not move. Eventu-
ally, however, he was released, and aft
er stamping furiously OH the tiger again
caught him on his horns This time the
tossing, stamping and banging appar-
emily really ended in Cesar's death.
The cage was then opened and the bull
rushed out and back to his stable. For
precautions sake the tigers van was
brought up, and. to the general sur
prise, Cesar rose to his feet, glanced
round as if afraid the bull was still
there, and then bounded into the van.
The tiger was found to have five ribs
broken. besides having number OF
wounds from the bulls horns. 1t is said
that all wild animals-bears, lions,
panthers and tigers-fare badly in COM
bat with the Spanish fighting bull.
Man and the elephant are the only sure
victors over these active and ferocious
beasts.

CUeEs AMERICAN RIVERS.
One Florida River That Seems Undecided
just What to Do.


just What to Do.
+. II. Spearman tells of "Queer Ameri-
can Rivers in ST. Nicholas. The author
says:
Every variety of river in the world seems
to have q cousin in our collection. What
other country on the faco of the globe af-
fords such an assortment OF streams for
fishing and boating and swimming and
skating-besides having any number of
streams on which you can do none of these
thingss. One can hardly imagine rivers like
that, but we have them, plenty of them,
as you shall see
AS for fishing the American boy may
cast his flies for salmon In the arctic circle,
or angle for sharks under tropical sun Ill
Florida, without leaving the domain OF
the American flag. But thAfishing rivers
are not the most curious orTthe most in
Etructiye as to diversity of climate, soil
anu that sort of thing-physical geography,
the tea her calls it.
Fer ins.ance, If you want to get good
idea of nat tropical heat and moisture
will do for a country, slip your canoe from
Florida steamer into the Ocklawaha
river. 1t is as odd as its name, and APP
pears to be hopelessly undecided as to
whether II haG better continue III tne ueh
and alligator and drainage business or de-
vote itsolf to raising live oak and cypress
trees, with Spanish moss for mattresses as
a side product
In this tickle minded state 1t does lit
tie of all these things. so that when you
are really on the river you think you are
lost in the woods and when you actually
get lost I'm the woods you are quite conii'
dent your canoe is at last on the river.
This confusion Is due to the low, fiat coun'
try and the luxuriance of tropical vege'
tation.
To say that such river overflows Its
banks would hardly be correct, for that
would imply that 1t was not behaving It,
self. Besides, il hasn't any banks-or, ut
least, very few The fact Is, those peace
full Florida rivers seem to wander pretty
much where they like over the pretty pen
insula without giving offense, but II JACK
Frost takes such liberty-presto, you
should see how the people get after him
with weather bulletins and danger signals
and formidable smudges. So the Ockla
waba river and score Of its kind roam
through the woods-or maybe 1t Is the
woods that roam through them-and the
moss sways from the live oaks, and tht
cypress trees stick their knees up through
| the water in the oldest way Imaginable.
