Of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent 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 ex-
cellent combination OF Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir Of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-lnformed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactu by the Cali
forna Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale

twenty-five years for a bad case Of

After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and the new

The duke of Wellington has always
been a mystery. / have read that he

read also that he was only five feet
six inches. Historians tell us he was
anywhere from five feet six inches to
five feet eleven inches. There are
some things, seemingly very simple
which II is impossible to establish;
this is one of them. Historians are
still guessing the height of julius
Caesar. the size of Hannibars head,
the weight OF Alexander the Great and
the general dimensions of Solomon.
Why, we are not even sure OF the stat
ure of George Washington. 1t might
be believed that Napoleon, Alexander
the Great and Jay Gould were of the
same size, three bumptious little chaps.
And il is common belief that Charlie

l can hardly even yet realize that
the bishop could so completely forget
the cathedral, the diocese, the Epis-
copal example and his so years. The
remembrance of one or other of them
should have stayed with him, one would
think. But they fed him completely.
it appears, and before the astonished
eyes of Mrs. Peter Cantear, driving Sc
dately home in her sedately appointed
sleigh, was revealed the amazing sight
of Caroline and the bishop, coasting
merrily down the icy expanse of hill
on little sled, whose lack of space
caused them TO cling TO each other in
a manner which showed far more re-
gard for their personal safety than for
the Episcopal dignity.
Picture it to yourself II you can; to

what the crash OF the worlds will be
when the elements which keep them
in their places dissolve.
A crash indeed 1t ended in, for the
bishop, being more accustomed to
steering guild meetings than small
sleds, made some wrong calculation in
endeavoring to avoid a collision with
Mrs. Peter Cantear's sleigh. He was
forced by the stress of circumstance
to swerve and deviate from that
straightness of path which he was so
insistent in recommending to his ca
thedral flock, with the result that,
with an incredible swiftness, Caroline,
the bishop and the sled were over

No one, myself least of all, would
deny that Mrs. Peter Cantear was a
much and sorely tried lady. II was
shock enough to her nerves and ideals
to see her own revered Episcopal prop
erty being made, as ii were, a sport OF

and hatless. into a snow-bank. Shock
