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. 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-
manentiy. Its perfect freedom from
e\ very 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.

HAVE SECURED A COTTAGE.
Ladies Have Tybee Home for Fresh
Air Fund Beneaciaries.

Ladies Have Tybee Home for Fresh
Air Fund Beneaciaries.
The ladies of the Kings Daughters who
have had the fresh air fund in charge
have secured a cottage on Tybee. A meet
ing will be held Monday afternoon at
o'clock at No. 20 Harris street. west, the
home of one of the ladies', and 1t is proba-
BILE that a matron for the cottage will be
selected.
The Ulmer cottage on the island has been
secured for the summer. 1t is located
near the postoffice, and is not near enough
to any others on the island to make the
conduct of the fresh air establishment a
source of annoyance to summer residents.
1t is expected to open the cottage June
l. and the ladies hope to have ten chill
dren "a week in charge of The matron.
An offer of a matron free of cost to the
ladies has been made by the Protestant
Episcopal Church board, but it is not
known whether the offer was made with
the proper understanding of just what
the project is. 1t is thought possible that
the church authorities may believe it to
be sectarian plane with, EPiscopalians
as the managers and rbene heiaries.f Such
is not the case, and the authorities have
been so advised. The ladies are anxious
to have the church furnish the matron,
it it can be done under the circumstances,
and it is possible she may be sent
The ladies are still engaged in raising
funds TO defray the cost of their project.
They have already about $3.50, but require
about 500 more in order to maintain the
number of children for week that is de-
sired. They will continue to solicit aid.

FROM IRELAND
The Flag of England.

And the winds OF the world made an
swer,
North, South and East and West:
wherever there's wealth to covet,
Or land that can be possessed;
Wherever are savage races
To cozen, coerce and scare,
We shall find the Wanted ensign;
For the English flag is there!
"Ay. it waves DER the blazing novels
Whence African victims fly,
To be shot by explosive bullets,
Or to wretchedly starve and die;
Aad where the beachcomber harries
The isles of the Southern sea,
At the peak Of his hellish vessel
IT'S the English flag flies free.
THE Maori full oft hath cursed it,
With his bitterest dying breath;
AID the Arab has Kissed his hatred
As he spits at its folds in death.
The hapless fellah has feared it,
On Tel-elKebir's parched plain,
Ard the Zulu's blood has stained it
With deep, indelible stain.
1T has Aoated DER scenes OF pillage,
1t has Haunted DER deeds of shame,
1t has waved DER the fell marauder
As he ravisfed with sword and flame
II has looked upon ruthless slaughter
And massacre dire and grim;
1t has heard the shrieks of the victim:
Drown even the lingo hymn.
''Where is the flag OF England?
Seek the land where the natives rot;
Where decay and assured extinction
Must soon be the peoples lot.
Col search for the once-glad islands,
Where disease and death are rife,
And the greed Of a callous commerce
Now battens on human life!
where is the flag of England?
Go sail where rich galleons come
With shoddy and loaded cottons,
And beer, and Bibles, and rum;
Go. too, where brute force has tri
umphed,
And hypocrisy makes its law;
And your question will find its answer
For the flag of England is there"

SECOND SOBER THOUGHT
Mexican Newspapers Less Excited Over
Cecil Rhodes Prophecy.
Generally Regarded Now as Being
Merely the Utterance of
One Man.

CITY OF MEXICO, March 24-The Mexi-
can papers continue to discuss Ceoil Rhodes
expressions on imperial extension of the
United States. Ell Nacional. moderate lib
eral, says the excessive anti-Y ankee spirit
shown here is bad, as It may sow seeds OF
hatred that are not calculated to occasion
confidence
ITO arouse the eagle" says El Nacional,
without having means to control 1t when
aroused would be suicidal Mexico lives in
peace with the United States, and has
nothing now to complain of In regard to
that country. Our interests lie in strength
ening those relations in future, or at any
rate not to give pretext for their being
weakened or broken off. In that harmony
with our powerful neighbor lies our safety
and on those lines our policy should be
shaped"
FL TEMPO, the conservative organ. is be-
ginning to see that the Spanish papers of
this city worked Rhodes statements for
their own ends and says:
Really the remarks of Rhodes have been
taken too seriously, for after all they only
represent the isolated opinion, and though
It is the opinion of a public man it has no
great significance. A general protest was
made by the nation against Rhodes afir-
nations and that is enough
