The
General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; a laxative which physi-
clans could sanction for family use
because it's component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial in effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
in action.
In supplying that demand with its
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for its remarkable
success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Sienna is
given the preference by the Well
Informed. To get its beneficial effects
always buy the genuine-manufac-
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only, and for sale by all leading
druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle

Oakfield.-Mrs. f. H. Orvis, social

killed in the First Methodist church

was greeting the other worshtpers
with gracious smiles as she passed

CHARGE SHERIFF WITH INSANITY
Lincoln County Officer Is Placed Under
Arrest at ST. Paul.

Manitwoc-Sheriff Joseph Bartelme
of Lincoln county, who was arrested
in st. Paul, Mimi. on a charge of in
sanity, is a former Manitowoc man. He
was elected sheriff of Lincoln county
a year ago. He was called to Toma-
hawk from Merrill by a message stat
ing that a man wanted by the Merrill
authorities for murder had been ar
rested in that city. Upon arrival at
Tomahawk the prisoner was turned
over to the officer and he left the Jail
to return by train. Since that time
nothing had been heard from him. 1t
is thought that Bartelme's prisoner
made his escape from the officer from
the train between Tomahawk and Mer-
rill in the night and that>in giving
chase Bartelme was led into the
woods and could not find his way out
