Quality

appeal to the Well Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir Of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug
gsts.

WEEDS WILL SHUT OUT
DUST FROM THE CARS
Railroad Man Allows Nature
To Aid His Passengers.

Walla Walla. Wash. June 20.-To
save $4,000 in wages and at the same
time control to some extent the dust
which troubles travellers is the plan
of NJ. ]. Buckley, general superinten-
dent of the Oregon Navigation, who
this year proposes to allow weeds to
grow along the tracks wherever it is
possible. Instead of keeping the track
clear of weeds by cutting them with
shovels, the section men are instruct
ed to allow them to grow, keeping
them trimmed close to the rails that
they may not come in contact with
wheels Of the cars and cause trouble
Wherever weeds have been allowed to
grow dust has never troubled and this
fact has caused Mr.. Buckley to try
the experiment of allowing weeds and
grass to cover the ties. especially the
soil at the ends of the ties outside
the rails.

If Mr.. Hewitt wanted to he could do

He works from early to late, and

fast becoming one of the master in

inventions are the mercury-vapor

ships it will bring Liverpool within
thirty hours of New York

She Will Reign Supreme If Taft
Is the Next Presi-
dent.
AN INTERESTING FAMILY.
ALL THE TAFTs HAVE CHARMING
PERSONALITIES, BUT THE MOST
INTERESTING Is THAT OF "BIG
BILL"

Washington, D. c., June 2O.-"Prin-
eess Helen will be the next reigning
belle Of the white house if William
Howard Taft becomes president of the
United States-as the republicans con-
fidently predict.
Robert Taft, Yale sophomore, will
be the Teddy Jr., of the next federal
regime should his father become chief
executive of the nation.
In little Charlie Taft there is a Sec
pnd Kermit to tease the guards, watch
men and White House bull dogs and
cut capers for the Sunday newspaper
magazine sections.
And in Mrs. Taft there is a new first
lady of the land" whose charm of per-
sonality and winning ways as hostess
would delight diplomat and layman.
Taft Himself Is Strenuous.
This. of course, makes no mention Of
the fact that William H. Taft himself
is strenuous person who can ride
horseback, even though he is not hur-
die jumper; who can play golf, even
though he is not tennis champion,
and who has been strenuous, even
though he does not show his teeth.
The Taft family, in event of Secre-
tary Taft's election, will be one of the
most interesting that ever occupied
the White House.
big Bill Taft is likely to make the
Executive mansion ring with his little
Jokes If he Is elected. He's known ev-
erywhere as good fellow"-the kind
who shakes hands with the engineer,
not for effect, but because he likes the
engineer; the sort of man who poses
for photographs and not for notoriety,
but to please the photographer; the
man who holds receptions, not for the
sake of publicity, but because he likes
10 meet people.
Charlie Is Mischievous.
And Charlie-well, Charlie is an in
uuisitive, mischievous little chap who
abounds in health and overflows with
spirits.
1t was at Shanghai. when the Taft
party was making it's famous round
the-world trip, that Charlie showed a
little of his spirit
AS the party disembarked there was
a line Of relocated Tommy Atkinses
drawn up from gang plank to carriage.
They stood with shoulders squared
back, chests out, stomachs in, and
chins protruding as if all the glory in
the world was theirs.
Secretary and Mrs. Taft walked i'm
perturbably through the line So did
other members of the party But
Charlie,-wel, he wanted to look over
that line of red jacketed regulars, and
he did, first from one side and then
from the other.
"Fine Set Of Lobsters."
They're fine set of Holsters" he
said audibly, only they're only half
boiled"'
Princess Helen is a gracious young
woman who would take the place of
"Princess Alice" Her gayety would
ring through the mansion and her lit
tie entertainments be something to
make note of.
Robert is serious-like Teddy, Jr.,
but he's more bashful. He bushes.
That's because he is a sophomore
whose father is joker. But the boy
ds fine. wholesome, manly fellow,
say those who know him.

The result is complete relief

Medicine can't cure dyspepsia.
"A weak stomach is like a lame

But a cure is impossible while

ach lining.
It is impossible so long as the
stomach is taxed.
Don't diet-don't starve yourself:
for nourishment will do more than

The moment you take Kodol your
Digestion Starts

Kodoi is liquid, like the diges-
tive juices. 1t acts the moment
you take it.
The pain ends, irritation stops,
the food is completely digested.
That is not true of other diges-
tiers, for they rely largely on pep
sin.
Pepsin digests albumen perfect
ly, but that is all it can do.
Starch, fats and phosphates
form most of your food. Pepsin
can't digest those.
And it can't do bowel digestion.
Yet half of digestion is done by
the bowel fluids.
It requires many ingredients TO
make a perfect digester, and Kodol
contains them all.
1t digests any food-any mixture
of foods-completely.
1t does all that the stomach
does-all that the bowels do.
You can see it do this in a test
tube, under proper conditions. You
can feel what it does in the ston-
ach. There can be no doubt about
it.
