An Excellent Combination,

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIes, 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 refroohing to the
taste and acceptable to the syntcm. It
Is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effcctually,
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
Or irritating thom, 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 senna 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

Another matter Of interest referred
to by Mr.. Smyth was tho relations OF
the Northern and Southern mills. He
said that the export trade OF the cOun-

for a few years the Now England cot

velOpment OF the Southern mill Indus
try was inimical to their interests and
the cause OF the depression then felt,

that the revival Of business has come

SHOES AND THINGS THAT
LOOK LIKE SHOES.

Everyone will admit that there is
great difference between shoes and
shoes. That there arc Inferior Shoes
and Superior Shoes, and in every grade,
style and kind there arc frsts, seconds
and thirds and 80 on. This is true in
overy branch Of trade--henco you have
to depend OH the experience, ability
and reliability Of your local dealers for
good shoes at the right prices. Now,
the next question is, who or where can
l find the best for the money? There
are many convincing reasons why you
can buy the best for the money, and
the same for less money from us than
elsewhere, but wo will only
NAME a FEW REASONS WHY.
First. The senior member of this
firm has been in the wholesale shoe
business for the past thirteen years,
getting experience that is invaluable
and enables us to know where and how
to buy the correct goods at the lowest
figures. SO much for good shoes.
Second. We can afford and do
sell shoes at less profit than exclusive
shoe dealers; for the reason VIC
do not have to rent extra room or en-
ploY extra salesmen. 1t is all done
under the same roof along with our
dry goods business, hence the expense
Of doing our shoe business is at least
90 per cent less than tho expense Of
MI exclusive dealer.
Third. We have the advantage
Of buying in large quantities, rs we
sell both Wholesale and rctail--enabling
III to buy at close" figures than a nero
retailer. So its rs plain as A, B, G,
the position We occupy to save you
money. We have received more than
n car load in tho last thirty days. We
handle the best makes. We sell Drew,
Sclby e. Co.'s line of I,adles' Fine
Shoes. We want to
M0UiD INTO YOUR MEMORY
The advantage of buying from us.
We carry no jon LOTS or TRASHY
SiioEH. You can't afford to put your
money into rotten shoes; they don't
improve with ago. Our stock Is brand

The Diet Fad.

Sensible people have learned that
the best diet is variety of wholesome
food. If the digestive apparatus is
out of order, no amount of starvation
diet will regulate it, but will tend to
aggravate rather than remedy the all
ment. If you are bilious, dyspeptic,
liver torpid, bowels constipated, yellow
with jaundice, or have sick headache,
cure yourself with Baxter's Mandrake
Bitters, and then eat reasonably of
wholesome food and enjoy it. After
you are cured an occasional dose of
Bakers Mandrake Bitters will keep
you we'll. Price 25 cents per bottle,
also in tablets same price. All drug
gists guarantee it to cure or money

lie Talks Of the Corruption OF the
Political Mnchinc.

Political Machine.
New York November 1.-THE World
today publishes the following signed state
ment from John Wanamaker, dated Phil
adclphia, November 13;"The recent
revelations of corruption in the conduct Of
elections in Philadelphia ought to deeply
impress thoughtful citizens the entire
country over with the urgent necessity
for ballot reform. BY ballot reform I
mean such legal onsctments and rogula
tlons as will first make the ballot abso-
luteIy secret and therefore absolutely
free, and second, such devices. whether
Mechanical or otherwise as viii make
true account and return of the votes
legally cast as may be an absolute GER
tmnty. This seems TO me 10 the deSidcra-
tuln of modern politics in this country.
Political freedom and equality are Sc
cured by educational and statutory en-
actment and free men OF the country
should be euabled to cast their vote with
out coercion on Intimidation and TO have
their Will thus freely expressed honestly
recorded and returned. In Philadelphia
we have not had an honest election for
many years and The debauchery OF the
ballot has acquired the system and pre-
clsion of science with the dominant So
been fhe growth Of a dry or n year. but
has been perfected by steady, systematic
development Of the most minute details
of original ingenuity. The mHchine has
educated its followers in election crime
rewarded them according TO their perfec-
Ron In fraudulent arts and extollcd and
1lonored the leadership which best knows
how to devise and avail itself Of corrupt
practices and protect and promote It's
debsucbed tools and disciples.
"Of course, 1t would have been impos-
sible for the dominant machine in this city
to have so thoroughly subordnated the
electoral system TO It's dish nest uses had
there been minority organization or even
ordinary honesty and competency. But
there is no such minority organ cation in
this city What Is called the dmocratic
organization is but an agency OF the cor
rupt republican machine As a result the
democratic vote has shrunk more than
two thirds because honest democrats de-
clined to follow the leadership which
treats the party organization as an article
Of merchandise ard that has no principle
or purpose In politics other than Its own
sordd gain.
