Quality

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,
swcetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any debllltating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, AZ 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
gists.

Week of April 13.-North Bros.
NEW PHILLIPS
Will Present "Divorcons."


One of the greatest New York and
London successes of last season will
be presented by North Bros, comedi-
ans, during their engagement at the
Gennett for one week with usual mat
inees, commencing Tuesday
This great success is NictOricn Sar-
dou's celebrated French comedy. "Di-
vOrcOns." 1t is French comedy,
pure and simple. and is brimful of COM
edy and laughable situations from the
rise to the fall of the curtain. and is
entirely different from anything ever
seen in this city. at popular prices.
1t is true. as is the case in nearly all
there is more or less suggestive dur
ing the progress Of the play. and being
written by such a clever author as
SardOu, he has gone just so far with
the lines. and it is left with the audi
ence to imagine the rest. However,
the play is absolutely clean throughout
and not a vulgar word or movement in
the entire play that would mar the
feelings of the most faStidious.
Miss Goodwin has an eXceptiOnally
pleasing role in the play and one that
is admirably suited to her style of act
ing. and is given ample opportunity of
displaying her ability as an exception
ally clever and versatile artist. It is
said that her conception of the role
compares very favorably with that of
Grace George, who is now touring the
country, playing large cities only.

Mr.. Hepburn explained that the

most disturbs Europe. Il disturbs the
International balance of power as it
heretofore existed and upon which
their diplomacy has been based ia
pan is not liked for a similar reason.
With Japan, the powers are pdrticu-
larly concerned. Her prestige as Il
naval and military power and her Eng
lish alliance have brought the MikadO's
country to the front in the family OF
nations. 1t calls a halt in territorial
acquisition in the Far East and from
row on is likely to mark a recession in
English influence in Asia. The "ycl-

claim the same.
Mr. Hepburn is certain that it was
never more apparent that the only
