QUALITY AND NEWS.
FAME AND EXCELLENCE ARE DE.
TERMINING FACTORS IN SUC-
CESSFUL DEVELOPMENT.
One of the Important Functions OF
High Class Newspapers.

In presenting interesting phases of sci
entiic and economic problems, high-class
newspapers frequently give information
of as great value in their advertising col
umns as in those devoted to the publica-
ton of the principal events of the day;
and when the fame of product is ex-
tended beyond it's natural limits into for
eign lands and a large demand created
throughout Great Britain and her colo
MES and the principal seaports and cities
of Europe, Asia and Africa, it becomes
a pleasant duty to note the fact and to
tell of the points of excellence on which
so great a success is based. We refer to
the now world-famed laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, the product of the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Company. The merits
of this well-known excellent laxative
were first made known to the world
through the medical journals and news
papers of the United States; and is one
of the distinct achievements of the press.
It is now we'll known that Syrup of Figs
is an ethical proprietary remedy, APPROX
ed by the most eminent physicians every
where, because it is simple and effective,
yet pleasant to the taste and acceptable
to the system, and not only prompt in it's
beneficial effects, but also wholly free
from any unpleasant after-effects. 1t is
frequently referred to as the remedy Of
the healthy, because it is used by people
who enjoy good health and who slive well
and feel we'll and are we'll informed on
all subjects generally, including laxatives.
In order to get its beneficial effects, it is
necessary to get the genuine Syrup Of
Figs, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only.

Freedman said: ''Spalding is sore because

When Freedman's remarks were repeat-

latter seemed TO be greatly amused. He
said: THE point L raised when / sent in

sued by Freedman in baseball matters is
both unsportsmanlike and ruinous. I still
adhere to this statement He declares that
