THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIe 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 FIG 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
FoREIA FIe 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

The British, Portuguese, Chinese and

If can supply them with food, which

" BECAUSE IT is NOT NEEDED"
Is One REASON Given by the Anti

Is One Reason Given by the Anti
Avn Normal People.
Oklahoma, o. T.. July A-To the Editor
of the Eagle: Hon. oJhn Burton says
that as he originated the objection TO the
erection OF the normal school building At
Alva, and furnished the only reaSsa why
that law IS constitutional or void. and
presented It 70 the editor OF the Times
Journal who after considering Il two
weeks, then published the objection and
gave as reason why the law 10 void.
that $4,000, the cost OF the erection of It,
exceeds uhe linlitation OF taxes allowed 90
be collected in the territory, that he VIII
now make public the reason why 10 Is
void, because the present suit will be lost,
because 1t Is very simple for the board
OF equalization to increase the assessed
value q the property in the territory up
to an amount high enough that toe I'm
itation by law OF the taxes will not inter
fere with collecting the $4,000, and there
are other methods 10 avoid that question
Of law; and nearly all Of the people in the
territory are concerned In thFs question
and do not want an unnecessary debt i'm
posed upon their property.
Section OF the rganic Act OF Oklahoma
says that 1.-THE legislature has power 20
enact law on all rightful subjects"
In Oklahoma at Edmond We have nor
NAL school building that cost $4,000. and
ten ortwelve professors 20 teach the pu-
pills there, and 10 teach twenty times as
many normal school pupils as there are in
Oklahoma territory, and to pay those pro-
fessors an dthe necessary expenses OF the
building, the territory pays out about III
900 per year; and for these reasons OK
lahoma does not need another normal
school building. which shows that the law
for the erection OF a normal school build
ing at Alva. Is not upon ''rightful sub
ject." and for that reason Il Is void be
cause Il is inconsistent with and contrary
20 the spirit Of the Organic Act Of Ok
lahoma
II he attorney for TIE people Will amend
his pleading IN this case I'm conformity
with what is suggested above. the court
will furnish the people relief prayed for
in this suit.

AS our war closes, war draws
nearer in China between England
and Russia than ever before in
our day. For the third time IN
twenty years, England and Rus
STA are on the very brink of war:
when the British fleet went to
Besika Bay; over the Pendjeh
frontier, and now in China.
Russia is today in complete con-
troll of Turkey, and England
without weight at Constantine
pie. On the Afghan frontier
question, Russia has won all
against which England protested
fifteen years ago. The outlook
is strong for another retreat in
China. Russia has, it is true,
gone to unheard-of lengths. The
Chinese administration has been
seized by a palace-revolution,
English capital excluded from the
Russian sphere in Manchuria,
and Russian or Franco-Belgian
capt. al, which is the same thing,
forced into control of the best
railway route in the British
sphere in the Yang-tSe-kiang val
ley. If England recedes, it will
not be long before the Chinese
customs service, which England
now controls, passes into Russian
hands, and with it complete con.
troll of the Chinese Empire, three
quarters of whose imports come
from English ports and half OF
whose exports take the same
path. For this trade and its fiji,
ture, England may take some
extreme step; but it is most un
likely. A nation Of 10000, 0OC
with II 900, 900 square miles tc
govern may well hesitate over
new responsibilities.

Spanish Proverbs.

1t is perhaps in their domestic relations
that the Spaniards have most trouble, if
their proverbs give a fair picture of their
trials. They have the true Eastern feeling
regarding women, prescribing seclusion
for them as the only proper state. Here
are some of their pessimistic proverbs:
beware of bad woman and put no
trust in good one"
The best women in Spain are those
whose legs are broken: i. e., who cannot
so out.
"To love and be wise is impossible"
Mad love! for you, you for another. u
"A boys love is like water in sieve"
Lovers think that others have no eyes. y
"What woman wills God Wills"
"Never advise a man to go to the
wars or marry.
"The day you marry, It's either kill or
cure"
marry and grow tame"
Bachelor a peacock, betrotled lion
married an ass"
Grief for a dead wife lasts to the
door"
"The first wife is broom, the second
is lady"
These sayings are indicative of the ma
tional character-deceit and pinchbeck
gallantry. One might go on indefinitely
but the patience that would endure the
strain would need to be proverbial.-
