THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF figs

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA Fig SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish 10 impress upon
all the importance of Purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFoRNIA FIG 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.
FoRNIA 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 a 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

Narrow Escape of Little Wanderer.
Lost in JungIes of willows.

Special Correspondence of the Standard
Twin Bridges, Dec. 14.-That truth
is stranger than fiction is most start
lingly verified in the history of little
frankie Bowman, the 3-year-old son of
Editor Bowman of the Madison Coun-
ty Monitor, who was lost in the jun
giles of willows, rose bushes, flags and
rye grass in the Ruby river bottoms,
mention of which was made in the
Standard dispatches, and endured the
freezing December weather for more
than 80 hours: and, incredible to re-
late, escaped with no apparent injury
save a slight nervous shock and slight
ly frozen feet.
The boy was taken from Twin
Bridges on Tuesday evening, Dec. 6,
by Mi. and Mrs. E. p. Day to the
ranch of James Duncan, three miles
west of Sheridan, where the party re-
manned over night. On Wednesday
morning about 8 o'clock the child was
suddenly missed and a thorough search
of the premises failed to reveal his
whereabouts. The alarm was given TO
the immediate neighbors and hurried
search made, while messengers were
dispa tched to the towns of Sheridan
and Twin Bridges. In a short time

not live through the night, and that

a corpse.
Early Thursday morning the whole
population of the country came pouring
in and the search was continued unll

mile from the house, and in few min

cry that the lost was found" and it
might have been added that the dead

his overalls and the other was holding
his cap. He was restored to his
mothers arms while the tears streamed
