heralded, they may not hope for worldwide
prominence unless they meet with the

but of the many who have the happy
faculty of selecting, enjoying and learn
Ing the real worth of the choicest prod

becomes important to others, since to
meet the requirements of the well In
formed of all countries the method OK
manufacture must be Of the most per-
feet order and the combination the most
excellent of its kind. The above Is true
not of food products only. but is espe-
cially applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly a quarter of a century Of
growth and general use the excellent
remedy, Syrup of Figs, Is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family laxatives. Its quality Is
due not only to the excellence of the
combination of the laxative and carmin-
alive principles of plants known to act
most benefcially on the system and pre-
scented in the form Of pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also to the method
of manufacture of the California Fig

! j flying and full of promise.
The South is just now on the verge of
the annual period Of high water, and al
ready many Of the rivers are close to
the danger point. Fear of flood has de-
layed trade and the week in the South is
reported hardly up to normal.
Elsewhere through the country bust
ness is going on in a volume larger than
at this time last year, and this week
brought q large increase in demand for
everything in the line Of building mate
rial, this foreshadowing year Of new
construction on very large scale.
In the Northwest business men have
little to complain of aside from the mat
ter of insufficient freight service, which
remains the ono really bad feature. The
railroads, il trying to cover all demands
without enough rolling stock, and in en-
deavoring to make every car do the great
est possible amount of service, have been
imposing new restrictions upon shippers
from time to time. Some of the larger
shinpers, as the millers, have ignored the
later instructions and have fought it out
successfully with the roads. The North
west is looking to the opening Of naylga-
ton more anxiously this year than ever
before, for this will mean relief from a
situation that is intolerable.
