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-
manently. It's 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

4 NEW ARMY RIEnE.

A new army rife has been produced
by the government armorers al Enfield,
England, and is about to be subjected
to a series Of final tests before adop-
ton. 1t is stumpy in appearance, and
represents an attempt to provide all
branches Of the service with small
arm of one uniform pattern, being real
ly a compromise between the rifle and
the carbine. 1t is five inches shorter
than the existing rifle, and with a di-
minished length of barrel the backsight
and foresight are brought much closer
together, thereby increasing the posi-
BILE angle of error in aiming, serious
consideration in view of the ranges at
which modern warfare is often conduct
ed. Another novelty about the weapon
is provided by the barrel, which is en-
tirely covered by wood casing up to
about an inch from the muzzle. This
will allow the rifle to be grasped by the
hand at any part, however prolonged or
rapid the firing may have been. The
backsight is practically the only part
of the barrel which energies from the
wooden casing. The objection is raised
that by this arrangement the heat ra-
diation, which in the existing pattern is
disseminated over the whole length, is
likely to concentrate itself at the only
outlet to be found at the backsight i'm
mediately in front of the eye Of the
firer. This is one of the points to be
tested 1t is also objected that the ne
cessity of drawing line upon a dis
tant objective through the hood of the
foresight will preclude the possibility
of obtaining rapid and accurate fire
in emergencies.
1t would be pity if this new weap- |
on shouldn't turn out to be all that is
desired, for the failure would only post
pone the time when weapons will be so
deadly that there can be no war;

some talk about the future that is made
by o. p. Austin, chief of the bureau of

figures that at the beginning of the
next century this country will have
population of SO0,000,o0O. With a popu-
lation of 3OO,ooo,ooo the United States
would be no more densely inha bited
than are the productive nations of
Europe, and would average fewer peo-
pie to the square mile than either Bel

area than that which constitutes the
State of Alabama Is occupied in Java
and Madura by 100000 people, 517 to
the square mile, while in Belgium the
average Is $40 This country, taking no
account either of our island possessions
or Alaska, IL peopled now with the
density which characterizes Europe's
crowded territory, would have several
times 300, 100000 and the average to the
mile which prevails in the Netherlands,
Belgium and England would run our
aggregate here considerably above
round billion.
Assuming that we shall have become
? nation Of 100000 600 people at the be-
ginning Of the next century, there is
likely to be no lack of productive abil-
ity for the furnishing from within our
own borders of all the food supplies
requisite for the sustenance of that
number of inhabitants. Achievements
in the recent past in the handling with
most satisfactory results of land hith-

for in that direction. Doubtless por- !

SAFELY 1HRoUGH LAST wEEK.


The Lord was worshipped in the
beauty of holiness yesterday, as usual
but He wasn't worslipped in the beauty
of new clothes, as usual on Easter Sun
day. The weather wasn't very good
for new clothes, and SO there were not
many out, but 1t was good for reflection
and thankfulness. Firstly, 1t didn't
rain hard all the time. Secondly, the
partial cessation Of the rain revived
faith that there wasn't to be another
flood. Thirdly, the streets were cleaner
than even a candidate for reelection
could or would make them. Fourthly,
everybody wasn't sick with TYPHOID
fever resulting from criminal careless
ness or something equally disastrous.
Fifthly, it was plain that the drought
was broken. Sixthly and lastly, the
rain on the coast hadn't obliterated the
between the coast and the
sea.

weather will be good for corn, and we
