An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA Flo SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectuaily,
dispelling colds, headaches and feyers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIe SYRUP
Co. only. In order TO get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

am glad that Uncle Sam is a farm
er, and a good one at that. He has
several times purchased new farms. He
bought one in the Louisiana purchase
and another in Alaska, and now the
Philippines, and is still ready to buy
other farms if they can be found. 1t
will not reduce his bank account much
to pay for the Philippines: The hams
and hav alone that he sells would pay
the entire bill, or the eggs laid on his
farm in one month. He could settle
this bill of $2O,OOO,OOO by selling five
per cent. of his horses, three per cent.
of his cattle. The real basis of Uncle
Sans wealth is in the land he has.

On the same line, but referring es-
specially to beef cattle, Mr.. L. L. Miller,
of Walton, in the same paper, says:
There is no question lbult THAT feed

BANKS HAVE USE FOR MONEY.
Way In Which Big Financial Instftu-
ttons Manage to Pay Dividends
to Shareholders.

Many people wonder how banks use
all the money deposited in them and
how they manage to pay interest there
on and yet come out at the end of the
year with big profit on the business,
says the New York Telegram.
What they do is trade with the money.
To the depositor they pay between one
and two per cent, but the money they
lend brings them in three, five, six,
seven, and even eight per cent.
For instance, they give loans on all
sorts of securities, such as railway de-
bentures, government stock, public
company shares, dock warrants, bills
of lading, etc.
They also lend money on the Sc
curity of houses and land, but not to
great extent, as repayments are
slow.
When couple of substantial business
men or farmers or professional men
back bill the bank often lends without
any security at all; but now and again
they have heavy and ruinous losses on
these loans.
All banks, however, have large sums
of money constantly lying idle, for they
must keep sufficient cash at the various
branches to pay checks, and even to be
more or less prepared for panics. Still,
the difference between the one or two
per cent. they pay and the three or
eight they receive on millions of dol
lars leaves them an immense profit on
the years business.

Another freak beast which will ex-
cite curiosity in our geological gardens
is the tamarau, dwarf buffalo found
in the forests of Mindoro, of the Phil
ippine group. 1t is stunted form of
the oldworld buffalo. not of the Amer
lean bison. It sometimes occurs high
up in the mountains. It tunnels path
ways through the thick bamboo under
growth covering the mountain sides
above 5000 feet. Hunters must go
upon hands and knees to follow these
trails. The aborigines never hunt this
little beast, being deathly afraid of it,
