ccssor to the Silver Wave, which they
sold for use in Alaskan waters. When

christened the H. A. Barnard. in
honor of her chief owner and builders
As was the Wave, this boat will be
only for pleasure trips, fishing and
camping, such as brought many
pleasant days to the men when aboard
the Wave. The Barnard is to be a
much larger and stauncher boat than
its predecessor. 1t will be ~ feet
long by IA feet in the beam and be of
75 or so tons burden and draw II

Not at all. It proves that we are

Develops Another Glass OF Bids That Is
Very Suspicious.

Washington. Aug. Assistant Sec
rotary Vanderlip is now sending to sub

this number will be increased later on.
Recently notices of allotments have
been sent to q number Of people who
had subscribed and forwarded the re-
quired cash. but who new deny all
knowledge Of the transaction. The in
dications are that their names had been
used by interested parties without au-
thority with a view TO getting possess
sisR of tlse bonds in violation of the
spirit of the law.
These cases are under investigation
There are also a large number under

will be impossible TO state the maxi
mum amount which eventually will
be allotted until all of these cases
are decided. The indications, however,
are that the amount will fall between

to the care and skill with which it is

all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALrFoRNIA Fro 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
FOINIA 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 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

The attraction OF the afternoon talk from
Theodore F Seward. OF the Don't Worry" Circle
In introducing the speaker. Miss Smaller. the
president, said:
Mr. Seward will show now TO eliminate
worry from our homes" but Mr.. Seward exclaimed:
NO ladies', don't undertake such a task as
that; but will give you some principles that VIII
help toward it," He then spoke OF the seriousness
OF the subject which ne declared ne mad tried TO
