An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the

the value of obtaining the liquid laXa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting

tive. cleansing the system etfectually,
dispelling colds. headaches and fevers

to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionabl bic quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels. without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.

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

A valuable Reference Work.

The Year Book and Almanac issued
by the Globe Company. OF St Paul, is
one OF the best works OF the kind which,
have come to our notice. Complete in
every particular, it combines history and
facts, statistics and general information
in a manner which permits of instant
reference. The statistics are most COM
plctc and admirably arranged for intelli-
gent understanding Sixty pages of the
500 which this useful book contains are
devoted to Minnesota, and the political
information is the most comprehensive
and valuable ever published in the state.
We bcspeak for il the consideration OF
every intelligent person in the state and
we can say without hesitancy that it is
valuable alike to Merchant, Farmer Me-
chanic. Sportsman or Politician The
price OF the book is rs cents, mailed any
where. and. considering the amount OF
information it contains, it is worth fully
three times that amount.

The "Irish-Amcrican' newspaper OF
New York, published by Lynch and Nee
han, is an organ of Dick Croker, and
consequently an cxpansionist sheet OF the
most pronounced type. One would mag
inc from the tone of its articles that its
publishers are Anglo Saxons, but they
are not, they are the sons of Irishmen,
who would pay the ransom demanded by
Aguinaldo and his confcdcratcs for re-
leasing Spanish prisoners, not will,
money but with powder and lead. which
are the only arguments that will bring
sucl, savagcs to their Senses" Do they
forget that Englans used the same argu-
ments with the savage Iristry" in the
days gone by and that they would use
them today il necessary? Shame upon
these degenerate Cets who publish such
stuff for Irish gudgeons.

EQUALITY.

A FEW OBSERVATIONS BY HENRY BERT.
 It has been said the conditions of the pc ople are not equal. All persons will probably admit they are not. Wes @ their conditions ever equs l since the wesrld be- gan The Good Book says, "Thn poor ye have with you alwaye." The Lord never placed men on this earth neend- ing they should be equal. If he did, ,why did he give to one man the brains of Web ter and to another the brains of GuIteau. If 8 pan by his industry and genius and with r9spect for the laws, makes moT ey, it rigntfully belongs to him. If he gets it through dishonesty that ia different thing. Suppose sll the wealth of this country was evenly divided among the the people, wouli they be any better, ,apy happier or any more free; would Ameri- ca be 8 greater country; would 1t be any more respected abroads would the Stars and Stripes wave with any more power than they wave to-day? This is suppos- would they remain so for even 24 hours? Any thinking man will say they would not. Before week had expired some poor prodigal son would be beg girg for his bread. The world was al- ways so and 80 1t will always be, and 1t is no more than was intended by the Maker of the universe. A man through his own far-sighteduess sees there IS prospect of large city being built in certain place. He Is 80 we'll convinced of the fact that he runs the risk and buys large tracts of land in the vicinity. His far sightedness is rewarded. The city is built and he is rich man. He is now called robber, thief and many other hard names. for what, simply out of en- " ard iesl busy. Every man in the country had an equal chance with him to make an honest dollar. They did not take the chance, however. Have they now any just cause to envy the man who has done nothing except what they had unequal chance Of doing. Two men are working side by side. They each re- ceive the same wages. One saves his money, the other spends his money for cigars, theaters, etc. After few years, the man who saves his money Is worth several thousand dollars. The man who has spent his money is jealous and envl. ous of the man who has saved his money

AEEUAL REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER OF
 NEWTOWN.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen of Newtown:
 Gentlemen: Allow me herewith to hand you my report for the past year az Health Officer of the town of New town. During the past year we have had fewer cases of contagious diseases reported to the health fficer than during any previous year of my incumbency of the flee, and in only one of these in- stances has there been a secondary case originating from the p1imsry one, and that a case of whoOping cough. There have been reported no cases of measles, also there have been reported no cases of scarlet fever. There has been but one case of diphtheria reported, and al- though there were other children In the same family in small house, owing to the hearty and intelligent cooperation of the attending physician and the fam fly, and very thorough after fumiga- Cion, no secondary case occurred. Mem- branous croup, no cases reported. WhoopiDg cough, two cases; the one primary, contracted by exposure while away from home ,and here one secondary case occurred in the same family. Ty. phoid fever, one case, contracted while workiog and living out of town. Cerebro
 spinal fever, one case; origin not discov- erable, fullo wed by death In 20 hours. No small pox. No special effort is being made in our town to limit the pr svalence of pulmonary consumption, except the care of the sputa, etc., urged by our phy- sicians. No cases of tuberculosis within my knowledge or observation have been traced to tuberculous milk. There has been no excessive death rate in Newtown this past year. Regarding nuisances only 8 few com plaints have been received, and these sbated uncomplainingly by the persons concerned; and one complaint of nui- sance still sub iuiice. Regarding meth ds of garbage and sewa ge disposal the re has been no change or improvement from preceding years, and no trouble has originated from these Causes. We have no public provision for the care oi lcontagious cases. The sanitary condi- ton of the school houses is in general very good; or ly & few Suggestions by your Health Officer iu tEos0r three in.
