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 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, a 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 it's remedy. It is
far in 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
nauseate. In order to get it's beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

Mrs John Rodemeyer has remained in @ critical condition since she was suddenly taken ill on the evening of the 9th inst. Much of the time she has suffered intensely, but all day yes- terday she was comparatively comfyrt- able and hopes of her recovery are not abandoned.
 Thomas Mullin, aged about 50 years, was found dead in Thomas O'Hara's barn, over at Twin Lakes yes- terday morning. He has been a resi- dent of C,naan and has suffered good deal from asthma and heart trouble of late years, end Tuesday afternoon went into Df Camps office to get medicine. Dr Camp gave him some and told him he must keep quiet, but he walked over to Twin Lakes to Mir O'Hara s, who was a relative of his, and slept in his barn. When Mir O'Hara went out yesterday morning he found him dead. His brother. Michael Mullin, of Winsted, will make arrangements for his burial.
 A team of mustangs driven by Mrs Frank Holt of North Norfolk became manageable on Railroad street last Thursday morning and ran away. At Pease's crossing they ran into the south bound g 40 passenger train, which was approaching the station. The horses were thrown in the air and the buggy badly smashed. The steps on the bag gage car and passenger car were torn off by the collision. Mrs Holt was un- hurt. One of the horses ran to Elisha 3enedict's before it was captured. The fireman was son of Mrs Holt. His feelings can be better imagined than described when he saw the team running toward the train and his moth- CT being carried along to what naturally seemed certain death,

SECTION COMB CUTTER.
A Homemade Device For Levelfng or Gu
 ting Down Honeycomb.

Homemade Device For Leveling or Cut ting Down Honeycomb.
 A correspondent of The American Bee Journal describes for the benefit of all who want to make and use it de- vice which he has arranged for cutting or leveling down combs in unfinished sections of the previous year. It will be seen by the construction of the out ter that whatever residue of propolis there may be is entirely separated from the comb. leaving it perfectly clean. Before cutting the combs down they must be perfectly dry and entirely free from honey.
 The cutter is made altogether of tin and one bolt. The size, of course, each one will have to regulate according to the size of the section used. The size for A by A section Is by It by 3 inside the box, with fange at each side to form the gauge. Cut hole two inches in diameter, four inches from one end and in the center. Put rim one inch high around the hole inside. Take piece of xxx tin four inches wide, fold it together and draw to an edge, using a file to finish up with. Cut a piece like the end of the cutter knife with a slot hole near the top of this end piece, so you can raise or lower 1t, and form the knife around it. Put hole on each side little below the gauge on the box. Put the knife in, then quar- ter inch bolt through all. with a thumb nut to clamp all together.
 To use it get box that will be about right for you to sit at comfortably in a chair, cut hole in the end about four inches in diameter, place the cutter on so the hole in the center will come in the center of the one in the box, fasten with screw at each end. Now put wa-

ter in the box about half an inch deep. Always be sure to keep water in the box. Adjust a shelf in the wooden box for lamp to rest on. Have the lamp so 1t will come close up to the hole in the cutter box. Let it get quite hot.
 Now sit down with this box directly in front of you, take section in your two hands, have the knife face from you, place the end farthest from you in the gauge, then lower the other so 1t will come on top of the knife, then steadily pull toward you, letting 1t slide off the top of the knife on the gauge. When the section strikes the knife, directly raise that end slowly in such a way as to scrape off any comb that may be there. all the time keeping the other end in the gauge. Reverse and perform the same act. When the wax box gets about half full, let 1t cool and remove the wax. If the residue col lects on the underside of the knife, take an old case knife and remove 1t.

THEIR QUARTERLY MEETING.
tain Their Friends In A Royal
Manner


Wednesday night was the quarterly
meeting of the order of Forresters OF
America, and it was signal tor q
grand time. Preparations for this
event had been going on for some time
prior to the event and nothing was
left undone that would serve to make
it success.
Early in the evening the members OF
the order assembled to transact the
regular routine business and that be-
ing done the doors were thrown wide
open to the invited guests and large
number of them responded to the call.
There was singing, recitations and
speech-making which were followed
by refreshments of all kinds and those
present INDUCED freely.
The speakers of the evening were
Messrs. Sebring, Kirby, Edwards and
Sullivan, while Richardson, Kirby,
Sptvy and Hammond furnished the vO-
cal and instrumental music, to the
great delight of those present.
During the evening Ben Sebring,
one of the soldier boys who is mere on
furlough. was asked to give his ex-
perience in camp life and he responded
nobly. He said that in camp Houston
they were compelled to sleep on their
clothes to keep the mosquitoes from
them. He said the mosquitoes in that
camp were much more dangerous than
the Spaniards. He was frequently in
terrupted by applause and laughter
during the course of his remarks.
The affair was grand success and
made many friends for the local lodge
of FOrresters of America.

Prof. Zinzebar who is occupying

years in India at the feet of the adept

of his most myst'hed admirers.
The question he asked was regard

Zinzebar advised him to sell at once
and to loose no time in buying smother

man having little faith in the advice
did not act upon it, but took particular
pains to watch the market. The result
as that in a short time he lost 81. 500
