THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

{ Is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
10 the care and skill with which it is
mapufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA Fro 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 FIa SYRUP Co.
only, knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRSIA 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 its remedy. 1t is
far 10 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
nnuseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1898-09-01

We see in our institutional exchanges
a translation by a prisoner of the motto
of Connecticut, "Quo transtultit, sus-
tinet," with "He who transgresses, she
sustains.'' Another contemporary
seems to think this very good trans
lation and writes an editorial on the
sentiment. A better translation would
perhaps be: "(He) who transplanted,
sustains," and may perhaps still fur
nish stuff for an editorial or two.
