Tombstones and Monuments.

Don't always be saying what you will dc. but do as l have done in the selling of tombstones and monuments. I have sold more marble work, and given better sat isfaction, than any man that has ever sold such work ill this eoun- try. My marble Is as pure as can be gathered from the white hills of Italy, and 1t never turns dark. My work is all beautifully raised work, and if my prices are not lower, and my terms more liberal, than all others, then my firm has never sold work here. Compare my work and prices with other work in every cemetery in the country, and you need go no further for proof. l will give an hundred dol- lars for any job of mine that Is found lying on the ground. broken, for the want of good, substantial workmanship, and l will give an hundred dollars if I cant show this of other firms all over the country.

TIE 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 Ere SYRUP Go. only, 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 guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other laxatives, as 1t acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weaken ing them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate.
