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 Taxa
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 anc
other aromatic plants, by method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

COCHRAN SAYS THE PRESIDENT
COULD STOP THE BOER WAR

But is it true that the resistance of
the Beers is hopeless? Since the fall
of Pretoria it certainly has not been
fruitless; it has been justified by most
Important results. Lord Salisbury's
position that nothing but absolute sur
render would be considered has been
abandoned, and to-day the burghers
could secure almost any terms short of
complete acknowledgement of their in
dependence. AS their resistance has not
been fruitless, neither Is their struggle
for independence hopeless. On the con-
trary, IL their resistance be prolonged
for few months, the abandonment Of
the struggle to subdue them by Great
Britain is inevitable.
Providence has so ordered events
that the President of the United States
can conclude this bitter quarrel. 1t Is
an extraordinary opportunity offered to
an extraordinary man. 1t would not
be necessary to draw the sword, to
make and threat Of armed intervention,
or to take an unfriendly attitude. One
word spoken to the English ambassa-
dor or in the hearing of the English ma
tion, would restore peace, establish JUS
tice, secure liberty to these burghers,
promote enormously the prosperity Of
the human race and bring immeasure-
able glory to the American nation.
Will that word be spoken? Never in
history has such momentaus results
hung on the lips of human being.
Will Theodore Roosevelt improve this
opportunity for himself, his country
and the whole human racer"

the President that the treaty of Wash

ports and waters be henceforth denied
to vessels operating under British char
ter for the augmentation of supplies Of

BILE means to bring to an end the hor-
rors of concentration camps and a war
fare which by its unexampled ferocity
and enormous cost of life and
treasure has astonished the civil
lied world.
