to Congress, on Monday, demanding
certain legislation for the relief Of the

the Senate and Cannon bullying the

especially as the people generally
act like cowed sheep.

The DIAGNOSIS.

In his notes of trip to the Pacific
region Ed. Howe tells of an old man
who came into the smoking room of
the car, sat down beside him, and
said abruptly: II have been to see a
noted doctor in Frisco. The doctor
looked at me and said, DO you want
me to tell you the truth? said l
certainly did. Well, then, the doc
tor continued, you're old; that's all
that ais you"
''The old man pulled away at his
cigar. somewhat feebly, / thought
says Howe, land seemed buried in
reverie. I looked at him more close
ly and saw he was wan and pale, and
older than I had first thought.
"'Wasn't that pretty cold he con-
tinued, after time. I knew l was
getting old, but the doctor vas bru-
tai. suppose he is the greatest nerve
specialist in the country today, but
he's brutal (He was looking out Of
the window.) There's another blank
ed graveyard! 1t seems to me have
not seen anything else since | left
home

hobb1ed out of the smoking room

General Demand

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 it's 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-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents

Cigar Delays a Train.

A Montmartre tradesman delayed
railway traffic for twenty minutes at
suburban station yesterday, because
the officials would not add smoking
carriage to the train on which he was
about to return to Paris.
The occupants of a non smoking COM
partment objected to the tradesman's
cigar, so the tradesman, still putting
his cigar, lay down on the line in front
of the engine.
He announced that he would remain
there until he had finished smoking.
Various officials were summoned to ar
que with him, and finally, when the
train had been delayed twenty minutes
and the irate passengers demanded
that it proceed regardless of the
tradesman, the latter was forcibly re-
moved and arested.-Paris Dispatch in
