An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA Fid SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative ana 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 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 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
printed on the front of every package.

The flying fox is a very curious in
habitant of the forests near Moreton
Bay in East Australia. 1t lives in focks
and moves generally toward the dusk
OF the evening, and the noise produced
by the heavy Tapping of the so-called
wings is very singular. The focks
like quiet places, where there are large
Araucarian pine trees, with an under
wood Of scrub and creepers. The
foxes hang in vast numbers from the
horizontal branches of the pine trees.
When there is clear space among
the trees, an enormous number of the
animals may be seen. and their noise
can be heard, for directly they see any
thing unusual they utter a short bark.
something like the sound made by
young rocks. Often every branch is
crowded and the flying foxes are seen
either Tapping their wings and hold
ing on with their hind feet. and with
their head downward, or snarling and
fighting for places.
Suddenly the whole take to flight and
flap their furry, wing-like sides and
wheel around like heavy birds Many
fly with Il Fir young holding on to
them.
The creature is not true fox and
there is a fold of skin which reaches
from the fore to the hind legs. This is
called the wing, and it enables the
pteropus, as the animal is called, to
float and turn in the air.

HOW NUGGETS GROW. Z
A Chemist Shows Tkut Gold Exists in q
Soluble Form

1t is generally supposed that the mug
gets which are found in the river gray
els of Klondike and other auriferous
regions have been brought down by the
rivers direct from the reefs in which
the gold originally lay.
Many practical miners and scientific
men, however, have long been of opin-
ion that this cannot be the case, for no
masses Of gold Of SO large a size were
ever found in the reefs themselves.
hey believe, on the other hand, that
the nuggets have grown where they are
now found, Just as a crystal of salt will
grow in strong brine; but with so
nsoluble a substance as gold it was
difficult to understand how such
growth could take place Experiments
carried out in Australia have shown
that decaying vegetable matter will
cause the deposition of gold from solu-
tons Of gold salts, but these salts are
not known to occur in reefs.
The mystery is now solved. A Sla-
vonic chemist named Zzigmedy has
just shown that gold itself can exist in
a soluble form. By acting on a slightly
alkaline solution O; a gold salt with
formaldehyde ard submitting the prod
uct to dial5sis, he has succeeded in OBJ
tanning gold in a colloidal condition, in
which state it is soluble in water and
may be precipitateG by the addition of
common salt.
It is probable that some of the gold
in quartz feels exists in this condition.
1t is washed out by the rain, carried
away in solution by tho rivers. and
deposited in the river gravels wherever
there is anything containing salt to
cause its precipitation. In the course
OF ages a large nugge, may in this
way be formed.

Cost Of the Red NInn.

Since the United States government
was formed 10000 white men, women
and children have been slain in Indian
wars and ARRAYS and about 10000 In
dams, at an expense to our govern
ment of 1907, 073,65S. To this immense
sum must be added the civil expendi-
ture of the government on behalf of the
Indians, which, between 1776 and 1890
amounted to $3.50 ,944,OS2, making to-
tai of 81 ,067 ,740 for civil and mill
tary expenses in connection with the
noble red man.

Beauties of MORO Castle.

Ell MORO is one of the grandest pos
sessions in all Cuba, not as a fortress,
but as a curiosity. The damage done
the castle proper by our navy could be
repaired for $4,000 It's construction
and mysteries are wonderful, and the
scene from MORO ridge is unsurpassed
in Cuba. Our guard there has explored
it pretty thoroughly, but has not yet
discovered the entrance to the subter-
ranean torture rooms.
