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. It
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 its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
on 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 its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company

the Portland, the last time being in May,
1898. Certain minor repairs were mhde
then, SO that the vessel was ms strong

also was good, and Captain Pollister had

have been made at Frisco warehouses
within the pasc few DAYS, one lot of an

at cents. The other two were about
as large and sold at 10 and II cents Ie-

by Eastern manufacturers agents for

FRICTION AT MANILA.

Otis Severely Criticises Schurman's Pol
icy-ReasOn for Dewey's Departure.
Washington, June 10.-Pi esident J.
@. schurman, of the Philippine com.
mission, will resign on his return tc
the United States, because of friction
between himself and General Otis.
Admiral Dewey Mastered his depar-
ture from Manila, it is said, because OF
friction in the commission. He had
steadfastly declined to leave his post
before, and his determination to return
was sudden.
The president today received a cable.
gram from General Otis, in which he
severly criticised President Schurman's
policy, and put himself on record as
opposed to President Schurman longer
interfering with the campaign In the
Philippines. He said Schurman does
not comprehend the situation. While
Professor Worcester and Colonel DENLY
are in accord with the commanding
general, President Schurman has per-
sisted in adopting a course which they
did not approve.
The president will uphold General
Otis. The friction was caused by
President Schurman's desire to treat
with rebels who had no authority.
General Otis declined to participate.
