An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects OF the well known remedy,
SYRUP or FIae, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
The value Of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive prin eiples of plants known TO be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
IS the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system cffcctually,
dispelling colds, 4 cadachcs and fcvers
gently yet promptly end enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels. without weakening
or irritating then, 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 method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUr
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects-and to avoid limitations, please

Verdict Meant Death.

Aldrich, Mo-, May 27.-Four of the
best doctors in the vicinity have been
in attendance on Mrs. Mollie Moore Of
this place, who has been suffering
with very severe case of nervousness
and Kidney Disease. Each of them
told her that she would die.
Hearing of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she
began to use them, and instantly MOTTO
ed change for the better. Her i'm
provement has been continuous since
then. She says that the disease first
manifested itself by the appearance
of dark spots floating before her eyes.
Her nerves were SO bad that many
times they would collapse completely,
and she would fall down as if shot
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved her after four doctors had given
her up, has caused no end Of talk in
this neighborhood, and all are loud in
their praises of this new remedy
Dodd's Kidney Pills-which is curing
so many hitherto incurable cases, in
this State and elsewhere.

WHAT WE HEAR FROM AssINI-

"Don't Think Of Coming, but Come"
To the Editor-The above issthe en-
phatic manner In which q friend In
Yorkton writes to a friend near st.
Paul, Minnesota, and it is, pretty near
~ right, too. when the advantages that
Western Canada offers to those seek
ing homes are considered. The Assini-
boia district is one of the best. The
writer from whose letter we quote goes
on to say:
John, II you miss this chance you
are foolish, for you can get out cheaper
when there are SO many coming, and
would not tell you to come if thought
you could not do we'll, and If you don't
come in the spring you will have to go
away back. for you do not want to
think that there is no one living out
here but us. l saw nicer buildings out
here than ever saw before, and If the
country was no good what would they
want them for? John, If you sold ev-
eIything you have and came out here
you would be worth more than ever
you were before. and if you can bring
your team, you can get anything you
want Oh tick and when they do that
with strangers they are not afraid they
can't make enough to pay for it. saw
as nice wheat as l ever saw in my life,
and IT they could not grow grain what
would the -four mill be for? And it
cost $4,000"
Now, this was what Mr.. Thomas
Fitzpatrick Of Yorkton, Assiniboia,
Western Canada, wrote to q friend.

which can be had Of any agent Of the
