THE MEN AND WOMEN
Who Enjoy the Choicest Products
of the Worlds Commerce.
Knowledge of What IL Best More I'm
portant Than Wealth With
out 1t.

It 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
preeminence 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 commendation. 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 a quarter of century OF
growth and general use the excellent
remedy. Syrup of Figs. is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family 1axatives. Its quality Is
due not only to the excellence OF the
combinat ton Of the laxative and carmin-
ative principles Of plants known to act
most beneficially on the system and pre-
sented in the form Of a pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also to the method
of manufacture of the California Fig
ty and purity essential in a 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. II at ali 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 it 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 un-
pleasant after-enccts. 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 it is necessary to buy the
genuine which is sold In original pack
ages only; the name Of the remedy
Syrup Of Figs and also the full name of
the Company-California Fig Syrup Co.
printed on the front of every package.

However. the first conclusion has been
reconsidered and by direction of the
president the petition will now 60 for

problematical.
AS indicated in the following note
from Secretary Hay to Simon Wolf
the presentation will probably be made

Dear Sir-The president has con-
cluded to transmit to the Russian gov
ernment the petition Of which you pre-
sented him a draft on the 18th of this
month. The matter which he had to
consider most seriously was whether or
not such a proceeding would be to the
advantage of your prosecuted and out
ragged co-reiigionists in Russia. On this
point he has decided to accept your
opinion and that of the numerous and
intelligent groups of American cilizens
of the Jewish faith whom you repre-
sent. He requests that you will send
him the petition in due form at your
earliest convenience. or course you
will understand that the president can
not tell you what reception your petit
ton will meet at the hands Of the Rus
