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-Informed.
To get it's 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
per bottle.

Another lady, who had been trou-

A LouuaciOus Swain.

Mr.. Backwoods had called for the
first time to escort Miss pumpkin
to the weekly prayer meeting. An
excess of timidity and self-conscious-

solute silence until at last and with
visible effort, as the meeting house
is neared, the gallant summons all
his courage:
do you like stewed rabbit" he

Yes" returns the maiden, coyly.
Again silence, until on the return
journey the home lights are sighted,

the resourceful swain asks feelingly:

Worried Long Over Dishonest
Dollar.

AS the result of a woman's con-
science bothering her over dollar
obtained dishonesty twenty years
ago, Newark church has been ell
riched by five times that amount.
The woman, whose name is with
held, worked in the tailoring estab-
lishment of William Kraft, in New
ark. She, with others, accepted
proposition made by a woman who
held a position of trust in the fac
tory to ''stand in on the padding
of the pay roll. By the scheme she
received 81 a week more than she
was entitled to, but half of that
amount had to go to the chief con-
spirator She left the factory two
weeks later.
The pastor of her church advised
that she return the dollar to Kraft's
widow. 1t was refused. Mrs. Kraft
suggested the dollar and the four
more offered with it be donated to
the church.-N. Y. American.

THE MOST OF LIFE.

The women who get the most out
of life are the busy women-not
necessarily those who set themselves
regular tasks, not those who from
choice or necessity are wage-earners,
but the women whose days are full
and whose interests are diversified.
Don't put all your eggs in one
basket" L. vulgar but tried old
adage, and has its uses in the social
as we'll as in the financial world.
The women who get the most out
of life need not be clever nor tai
ented, nor beautiful. They need not
have money OF great charm, but
they must possess the ability for
taking things as they find them, for
making shifts cheerfully and for de-
flying ''ths blues. Indianapolis

BUYING PAINT BLINDLY.

Many people look upon paint buy
ing as lottery and so it is, the way
they do it. 1t is not necessarily so,
however Pure White Lead and lin
seed oil are the essential elements of
good paint. Adulterants in white
lead can be easily found by the use of
a blowpipe Authorizations in linseed
oil can be detected with fair degree
of certainty. See that these two ele-
ments are pure and properly put on
and the paint will stay put.
National Lead Company. Wood
bridge Building, New York City, will
send a blowpipe outfit and instruc-
lions for testing both white lead and
linseed oil, on request.

As To HatpinS.

Hatpins are now regarded as trim
ming accessories and, accordingly,
are greatly priced as gifts, as they
are usually presented in pairs and
two are deemed quite enough to
decorate one hat. Among the most
effective, as we'll as the most serv-
iceable, are the great globes of rhine
stones or crystal, which do not tar
nish after being subjected to the rain
and are greatly liked because they
harmonic with any color and serve
to brighten a dark hat. Dresden
china pins do not discolor and are
undeniable works of art, but they
must be carefully handled, while the

Keeping Jars Alright.

Many housekeepers have trouble
with keeping alright anything that
is put up in jars.
If, however, after bottle or jar
Is corked, it is sealed with mixture
of beeswax and rosin, there is no
danger of air getting in.
To make this sealing mixture put
two ounces of yellow beeswax and
four ounces of rosin in a small tin
pan, which is then set in a larger
pan of hot water. Stir constantly
until the wax and rosin are well
blended. Apply while still liquid to
the outside of the corked jar or bot
tie.
