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 feyers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
maneutly, It's 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,

LOOKS LIKE ARBITRATION,
Uncle Sans Peace Proposal Pro-
pitious.

Washington, D. C. June 3.--lt is
generally believed 10 official circles
here, from dispatches received from
The Hague, that the American plan
of arbitration, with perhaps some
notifications, will be adopted b
the Peace Conference. This prob
ably will be the only result OF the
conference. The authorities un-
derstand that hope of stopping fur
ther armament by means OF action
at The Hague has been abandoned,
aud that the delegates have also
given up the belief that the confer
euce will agree to propositions for
ameliorating the hardships of war.
Even the amendment of the treaty
of Paris regarding the protection
of private property at sea is oellev
ed to stand little chance of adop-
ton. 1t is, therefore, likely that
the one result of the conference
will be a treaty under which the
several participating nations will be
able, if they desire to do so, to sub
nit their disputes to an arbitration
tribunal, to be formed as contem,
plated by the American plan.
While naturally the authorities
would like to see the conference
adopt the American plan in its
entirety, they say that it has beer
made so simple in character that il
can be modified in its details with
out injury.

The Worst TroubI. Ever invented.

There is one kind of trouble in the
world which God never sends and
which never brings a blessing with it.
It is the borrowed trouble which peo.
pie get by giving anxious thoughts to
tomorrow instead OF being content to
bear the burden of to-day. This is the
one kind of suffering which God bans
and bars out of His kingdom and yet
even good people do not ban and bar
It out of their lives. A true Christian
on his death-bed cOnfesses that the
greatest worries of his life had been
through his anticipation of evils which
never arrived. AS our Lord tells us,
It is quite enough TO bear those which
do arrive, and we must take lesson
from the ravens, which may suffer
from the hunger of to-day, but never
from that of to-morrow.-Sunday-

The GOODNESS in action of great com

Jackson has been worth whole battal-
ions in the fighting line, says a writer

had frequent opportunities of seeing
the Iron Duke" during the hours Of
the terrible Sunday, has recorded the
interesting and characteristic fact that
the only sign of nervousness that he
rema. ked in him was that il danger
GUS crisis he observed him moving
in and out the folds of the powerful
field glass which he carried, and of
which he made such admirable use in
this and his other campaigns. By the
way, English telescopes of the time
were far better than the French and
it was looked upon as prize when
one of them fell into their hands. In
one of Wellington's battles against
Soult, he was able to read that very
able Generals intentions by his ges
lures to an aidede-camp, and accord
ingly took prompt measures to coun.
teract his plans; and years afterward
when they were both old men, he as
tonished the Marshal by telling him
how he had defeated him.

No one is more injured by wrong
doing than the wrong-doer. 1t is not
in the power of a thief to impovish
any one so much as he impovishes
himself by his tlieving. The man
who uses vulgar or profane language
offends polite and reverend ears aud
pollutes the social atmosphere, but he
is himself the worst sufferer. Jesus
said, Not that which entereth into
fine mouth defileth the man, but that
which proceedeth out of the mouth,
This defileth the man" It has been
said. that in a certain high-class stable
in New York City there is posted this
notice: No man shall use profane
language in the hearing of horses. =

thing like boat. When not in use 1t
can be rolled up like cloak and can
be carried on a saddle or over a mans
shoulder. When the time comes to
use it it can be unrolled and fitted for
it's work on the water in less than fif-
teen minutes. It is almost impossible
to capsize it. Rings are attached to it,
and with the help of these those who
are about to embark easily place it
in proper position en- the river bank.
Only two openings are visible in the
canvas. and these are so tightly laced
that water cannot enter.
In order to cross a river, the current

sary for a man to lie fiat on this raft

case of swift current it is advisable
to connect the two banks by rope.

years past held various districts of

Some two years ago the military au-

many instances machine guns Were
furnished to the chiefs of mountain
