An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG 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 effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's 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 SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order TO get it's beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

A VISITING MILLINER.
One Young Woman Who Has Built
I'm a Profitable Business.

New York, May 5.-Miss Inez Curtess is
a young New York woman who has by
her pluck and energy built up large and
lucrative business as a visiting milliner.
Speaking of her work, she says:
Il became an errand girl in one Of the
most fashionaDl millinery establishments
of New York when 1 was 10 years old,
and can remember perfectly with what
awe 1 used to look up to the trimmers of
the store Why l thought to be able to
sit in the house all day and twist pretty
ribbons and flowers into hats the most
delightful occupation in the world sec
Ond only to riding in a carriage and wear
ing the hats.
In time l was taken In as an extra
trimmer in the busy season. with, how
ever, the pay of a girl about the store.
l worked under those conditions until the
following fall, when my wages were rails
ed. Gradually 1 became the one to whom
all the making up of old materials was
entrusted, for you know that even in the
fashionable establishment where l worked
there are some patrons who refuse to
throw away good materials. 1t was
branch of the business that the head of
the house dislked and he only permitted
Ii for fear of offending some of his veal
thiest customers. AS it was my duty to
use old materials l had to speak directly
to the patrons and learn their desires.
Thus, you see, l became so we'll known
to some of them that they knew my name
and address. One day, after having a
row with the head of the house because
he refused to have hat made over for
the fifth season, a wealthy customer wrote
to me.
That was my first outside order. Later
they increased so steadily that all of my
evenings were filed up, and 1 began to
make a bap IN, ba
shop. 1t set me to thinking, and last spring
at the beginning of the busy season,
gave up my job and started out as a visit
ing mill!ner.
Il have never earned more than SIS a
week while working in the store, and often
in the busiest seasons have put in eighteen
hours a day. As a visiting milliner l al
ways receive two doilars and one, often
three, meals a day. My hours are from s
until s, and 1 have all the work l can do
Every day has been taken from the first
of last October to the middle of next June
So you may judge of how much l have
improved my position financially, not to
mention the fact of the difference in my
work hours. l will leave for a two months
stay in Europe about the first of July and
will pass my time getting styles just as
other mliliners do. l have all of my time
engaged for September and October.
good many engagements booked for No
vember, and even as late as a year from
next June.
do l think other women can succeed In
the work in other cities? Indeed l do. In
any city large enough to work up a good
paying practice. especially among fami-
lies having a number of children. Why I
have patrons in and around New York
where l go for a week at a time. But girls
thinking of this work should remember
that l received my training in the most
fashionable millinery establishment in
America. and under the most critical man

A curious ceremony was that arranged
by one of the rulers or guico wars OF
Banda, in Bombay. 1t was the marriage
of two pigeons
The guicowar's costly eccentrlcities
were innumerable; every novelty struck
his fancy. One day diamonds were in re-
quest and his agents visited all the jew
elers shops. Another time he had a ma
mia for pigeons, and collected about &. 600
in his palace, of all kinds and plumage
and one day he arranged a mock mar
riage and celebrated the event with ex-
travagapt luxury.
The two pigeons, adorned with teweled
collars and carried by pages. were brought
on the terrace roof of the palace, which
had bedn sumptuously decorated for the
OCCASION
The king and courters, In gala attire
were ranged around the Brahmins. who
rected vast number of hymns. A con-
siderable sum was given as a marriage
portion to the two birds, which sum was
appropriated by the priests. Dancing and
a grand banquet concluded the festival
The result. upon this particular occasion
was unforeseen-a large cat which was
an unlimited guest taking advantage of
the confusion. ran off with the unhappy
bridegroom, leaving the bride a disconso-
late widow.
A taste for bulbuls was another fancy
More than 500 were brought at one time
to the palace. and their care and education
occupied the guicowar and his courtiers
for a month or more. The bulbuls are the
nightingales of India. Their plumage IS
beautifully speckled. and on their heads
are tufts of waving feathers which give
the birds eoQuettish and saucy air.

he resided until the winter of 1923, when
he went temporarily to Washington.
The story of the naming of The Choir
Invisible" his most successful book, is in
teresting. The book is a revision of John
Gray" 1t was the original intention of
Mr.. Allen, as well as his publisher, TO
retain the first name The agents of the
house were on their way 10 California and
every arrangement made for a thorough
advertisement OF the book as John
Gray"
One morning Allen received a MESA ge
from the publishers. Ii was suggested to
him that 1t would be advisable TO change
the name of the book. I'VE can reach
our agents by wire" it was said, before
they get to San Francisco. We must
have the name, if there is to be a change,
at once"
Give me two hours" replied the au-
thor.
Allen went to his home at IS Madison
avenue and bowed his head upon his desk.
Suddenly the words of George Eliots IA
nous poem came TO his mind:
SO shall l join the choir invisible
Whose music is the gladness of the
world"
II have it," said Allen.
Two hours later the title Of the most
successful volume of American fiction in
twenty-five years had been telesraphed
to San francisco. l. f. Marcosson.
