WORK OF
CONGRESS
~N~~N~~~No~

The Senate was not in session Satur-
day. \ veiied charge was made by Mr..
Mann of Illinois in the House during the
consideration OF the army appropriation
bill that some government omciai or en-
ploye had yielded to the influence of a
land syndicate with the view TO selling to
the government a tract near the city for
a target range. An appropriation OF
$3.50. 900 for 6.000 acres was provided for.
which Mr.. Mann denounced as far beyond
it's value. He at once aroused the ire OF
Mr.. Young of Michigan, who. springing to
the defense of the committee on military
affairs, Indignantly denied that any mem
Der of it had been approached by any one
but the Secretary of War or his subordi-
mates. The provision was stricken out
on a point of order. The army appropria-
ton bill was passed. the total amount
carried by it being SS4, 49, ,566.

TIE
General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
poncnt 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-
ccllent 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 genuinc-manufact by the Cali
