THE MEN AND WOMEN
Who Enjoy the Choicest Products
of the Worlds Commerce.
Knowledge of What Is Best More I'm
pOrtant Than Wealth with
out Ii.

1t must be apparent to every one that
qualities of the highest order are neces-
sary to enable the best of the products OF
modern commerce to attain permanently
to universal acceptance. However loudly
heralded, they may not hope for worldwide
prominence unless they meet with the
general approval, not of individuals only,
but of the many who have the happy
faculty of selecting enjoying and learn
ing the real worth OF the choicest prod
ucts Their commentator. consequently,
becomes important to others, since to
meet the requirements of the well in
formed of all countries the method OF
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 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 beneficially on the system and pre-
scented in the form of a pleasant and re-
freshing liquid but also to the method
Of manufacture of the California Fig
Syrup Co., which ensures that uniformi-
ty and purity essential in remedy in
tended for family use. Ask any physi-
clan who is well informed and he will
answer at once that 1t is an excellent
laxative If at all eminent in his pro-
fession and has made a special study of
laxatives and their effects upon the sys-
tenn he will tell you that 1t is the best
of family laxatives, because it is sim
pie and wholesome and cleanses and
sweetens the system effectually, when
a laxative is needed, without any I'M
pleasant after-effccts. Every well-in-
formed druggist of reputable standing
knows that Syrup of Figs is an excel
lent laxative and is glad to sell 1t, at
the regular price of fifty cents per bot
tie, because It gives general satisfac-
tion, but one should remember that in
order to get the beneficial effects Of
Syrup of Figs 1t is necessary TO buy the
genuine, which is sold in original pack
ages only; the name of the remedy

Pe-ru-na Preventive and Cure for Colds.
Mr.. c. F. Given, Sussex, N. b., Vice
President of "The Pastime Boating
Club" writes:
whenever the cold weather sets in
l have for years past been very sure to
catch severe cold which was hard to
throw off, and which would leave after
effects on my constitution the most of
the winter.
Last winter I was advised to try
Peruna, and within five days the cold
was broken up, and in five days more l
was a well man. recommended it to
several of my friends and all speak the
highest praise for it. There Is nothing
like Peruna for catarrhal affiliations.

Anyone who is incredulous as to

questioning Pecks persistency in
DENYING his marriage is almost be-
yond tle comprehension of those
who know the facts. 1t Is said that
he has been paying marked attention
to the Philippi girl who likes to call
herself loving tom boy.
A representative of the NEW Do
MINIoN called upon Mrs 1app, but
further than asserting that her
daughter was married TO Peck, she
prefers to say little about it.
There are many features of the
affair which place Peck in a light
very little better than that of the
common stage villain. 1t is said
that once when Mrs. Tapp sent her
daughter $35 with which to furnish
room, Peck used it to pay visit
to the girl at Philippi When the
fact OF the marriage was published
IN these columns, Peck wrote to a
Philippi paper denying the story.
This letter is said to lie on file at the
Office Of the Philippi Plain Dealer.
While Indignation against the
man who thus denies his wife is
intense, sympathy for Mrs. Peck is
deep and general. She is known as
one of the brightest and most
promising girls that ever attended
the University, and was a general
fayorite among her friends.

GRAFTON AGITATED.
Question of Rival Railroads Stirs

Council met with 800 Spectators b.
Il %. and The Wabash Clasn-Jack
WILKINSON Holds key to the Situation
What he wants Grafton TO get From
Wabash.
A. j. Wilkinson a member Of the
Grafton council who is In town holds
the key to the railroad situation in
that town. The council is evenly d.
yided and he will cast the decisive
vote.
He says that the kick Is on a grade
crossing which the Wabash wants to
put over the b. & o. on the west side
near the bridge. This will seriously
cripple the B. e o.
Officials of the Wabash state that
Grafton will probably be the terminal
OF the Pittsburg division as it is 100
miles from Plttsburg. They state
that shops and other things may be
located in Grafton.
Wilkinson told them that if they
would promise 10 locate the shops
there and to make Grafton the end of
the division he would at once vote
for whatever they wanted They de-
elined to make any promises.
The B. & @. made the statement
that they would be compelled to take
many OF their activities to other
points in case the grade crossing is
established. They promised to give
the Wabash rights way which would
enable them to cross above grade and
to make any other concession rs which
might be necessary.
The meeting of council was warm
one. 1t was held in the court house
with 500 citizens present. Railroad
officials and counsel from all over the
country were present.
No final action was taken and the
matter went over until next Monday
night when 1t will be settled. The
session at the last meeting lasted
from eight in the evening until five in
morning.
