Truth and
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 Fige
and Elixir Of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known, value, but n of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
Iaxatives is the fact that it ~cleanses,
swcetens 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 a 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

The Fourth Monkey.
10000 i
&c

It was housecleaning time, ana
things were scattered about IN the
uueerest places. The parlor chairs
were crowded into the dining roolh'
and the sofa stood in the mlddie OF
the kitchen floor, with the ironing
board leaning against it. A gooo Iaahy
of the parlor ornaments had oeeh-put
into the storeroom, and mother nao
asked the twins not to go there 10
play, for fear of breaking something.
The twins had On their blue sailor
dresses. each with a white anchor IN
front and white stars on the collar;
and each head of bushy- brown nalr
was tied with bows of white rlDDon.
The twins looked SO much alike that
most people had long ago given up
trying to tell which was Faye and
which was Fern, and only said. Here,
Twinnie," when they wanted some
thing.
They were waiting o for Miss
Margaret. who came twice a week to
give them their piano lesson.
Lets play hide-and-seek while we
wait" suggested Fern; there's such a
lot of good hiding places when things
are all moved around 90"
eyes, let's" replied Faye, scamper-
ing off to hide under the table behind
a screen of chairs, while Fern hid her
face and counted.
Then Fern hid behind the bureau in
mothers room, and, when it was
Faye's turn again, she crept under the
ironing board.
New it was Ferns turn TO hide
When Faye hal counted % and had
sung u twice, "Rushel O. wheat,
bushel O. rye" she searched through
the dining room and kitchen, and then,
without thinking, opened the door Of
the store room.
Just as she did so, she caught sight
of a rair of startled brown eyes gaz-
ing into her own, and of a blue sailor
dress with a white anchor in front,
and of white bows tying the bushy
brown hair.
Hastily shutting the door for fear
her sister would rush out and get to
the goal first, she suddenly remem-
bered what mother had said about not
going into the storeroom to play.
Ferns forgotten" she said to her
self, land 1 most forgot. I'll remind
her when she comes,'' and she hurried
back to the goal to call, Zone, two,
three for Fern"
But no Fern appeared. Instead, the
front door suddenly opened, and Faye
heard the sound of flying feet as Fern
ran out to greet Miss Margaret. And
the game was forgotten as the piano
1osson hecan.

Observes the Philadelphia Press:
Flies were once recognized as pos
sibly useful scayengers, but modern
science shows that their mission is
not to make clean, but to spread the
foul blight of pollution over as wide
an area as they can reach in their
flight. The discovery is useful, since,
knowing the source of the evil, we
can attack it in it's origin.
