The
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 physi-
clans could sanction for family use
because its component 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
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for it's remarkable
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-manufac-
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only, and for sale by all leading
druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

OLD PARIS STREETS.

The automobile which glides noise
lessly and smoothly along the we'll
paved streets Of Paris would not have
had so easy a time some centuries 90.
Nowadays one of the first demands
civilization makes upon a community
Is that the paving and sewerage shall
be good. 1t is hardly possible for the
Notwithstanding mind to conceive the
conditions Of oid-time streets and Of
the Inconvenience and dangers the
public endured. Some idea of ancient
Partisan thoroughfares is given In
14ghe Hopkins IAN Idler in Old
France
Lutetfa. tho name by which Paris
was first known, IL said to have come
from a word meaning mud" This de-
rivation is inexact, but its appropriate
ness was practically borne out in the
condition Of the streets. Unpnved,
rough as woodland tracks, flooded
with waste waters from the houses, the
roadways were populated by pigs, dogs,
geese, ducks and rabbits. In 1I31
Philippe, son Of Louis lie Gros and heir
to the throne, was killed while riding
In the city streets by being thrown
from his horse by an abbot's pig.
Shows and rains made the roads al.
most impossible. and the odor from
them rose far above the housetops. II
was said that on the darkest night a
traveller, out Of his course, might know
by the stencil how near he was to Par
Is. The mud Of the streets gained IN
early celebrity. "It sticks like Paris
mud" was proverb of antiquity. If
clothes were stained with 1t one was
advised to "cut the piece out, for It
burns whatever 1t touches"
In 11S5 the king, standing by an
open window of the palace, viewing a
cart which had stuck in the mud, was
80 sfckened by the stencil that he gave
orders to have the streets paved. This
movement inaugurated the street de.
partment Of Paris, but the effort was
feeble one. The work was begun, but
at the peoples expense. The king of
fered only slender contribution
Taxes were levied on duelists, on CAN
dies, boots cake. and other things. But
the enterprise was soon abandoned.
1t was not until 134S that any sys.
temattc care was taken Of the streets,
and pigs denied the public ways. Even
then the cleaning was confined to the
highways; the smaller streets were
still filed with heaps and hillocks of
rotting refuse.
The germ-wise minds Of to-day may
well wonder that any good or any con-
tinuance of life came out of such con-
ditions.

Spinning on the Common.

That historic bit of ground known to
the world as Boston Common has been
the background Of many strange
and picturesque scene. Surely not one
of the varied events which have been
acted upon it presents auainter pic
ture than one which took place about
1850. Frances Drake describes the
occurrence in his article in THE Memo
rial History of Boston" on Life in
Boston in the Provincial Period"
In 1920 an attempt was made in Bos
ton to encourage the art of spinning
and to establish schools where the
process could be taught to the poor. 1t
was recommended that twenty spin
ming wheels should be provided by the
town for the use Of children sent from
the almshouse and a premium allowed
of f5 for the first piece of linen spun
and woven.
In 1747 a society was organized for
the encouragement Of the industry, and
the fourth anniversary was publicly
celebrated.
''Ln the afternoon" says an old ac-
count, 300 young female spinsters, de
Gently dressed, appeared on the COM
mon with their spinning wheels. The
wheels were placed in three rows, a
female at each wheel. Weavers also
appeared In garments Of their own
weaving. There was an immense mum.

MINES AND MINING.

Preparations are being made for the
resumption of Corrigan, west of Ward
ner, Idaho.
j. R. Howeton, employed by the
Mountain Gulch Mining company, on
the north fork of the Palouse, 38 miles
east of here, died in his bed at the
camp recently of heart disease.
Bright prospects are claimed for the
Nipsic mine, some miles west of the
Hercules. Burke, Idaho, by the group
OF Spokane men who are doing devel-
opment work on the property.
The st. Anthony group in the Red
Boy district has been absorbed by the
George H. Phillips corporation, of
which George H. Phillips, formerly
corn king of Chicago, is the head.
A contract has been awarded for
rnning 200 lineal feet of tunnel work
on the Lauretta claim in Franklin
camp, about two miles south of the
Mckinney mine, British Columbia
The Knob Hill Mining & Milling
company of Danville, Wash, has ship
ped to the CRANKY smelter a carload
Of $40 gold ore. This is the first ship
ment from this property since it has
been bonded by S. l.. Boyer and as
sociates.
| A corporation has been formed to
take over and develop a group of min
ing claims ON Lake Chelan, Washing
ton, known as the Butte, Little Butte,
Columbia and Dakota, which are said
| to be the most promising claims about
the lake.,
Kinney Reeves, a representative of
the Bradley Engineering & Machinery
company, has returned to Libby,
Mont, from Granite creek and brought
a report that the Victor Empire Min
ing company has struck a 10-inch
streak of high grade steel galena ore
in the face of tunnel they are run
ming on that property.
F. J. Gilroy, formerly clerk and re.
corder of Silver Bow county, Mont,
states that he is highly impressed
with the future of the district between
Butte and Helena, especially Basin,
Corbin and Lump gulch. He said, after
a recent trip over this territory, that
good progress is being made on the
Alta group of mines near Basin.
The New Chicago Mining company,
whose property is located near Muir
ray, Idaho, in the Occur d'Alenes, is
preparing to make shipment of ore
which will probably be sent out from
the mine before Christmas, or as soon
as the Idaho Northern railroad now
under construction, is built into the
territory where the mine is located.

The material collected was SUFFICIENT
to make one complete edition Of the
Baltimore American. The type was set.
the plates cast and one copy Of this
special edition was printed of. With
this under his arm and blood in his
eye, Gen. Agnus went to Washington.
He called upon President Mckinley and
laid the unique copy Of that special
edition before Mckinley.
There has been printed only this
copy" said Gen. Agnus. ut will be
published tomorrow If you are still de-
termined to send the Sampson promo

President Mckinley looked the paper
over.
This interests me deply, Gen. Ag-
NUS" he said. "Will you leave it with
NE! promise to DO nothing IN the
matter Of the Senate nominations until
l have communicated with you."
The result Of President McKinley's
examination Of that special copy of the
special edition Of the Baltimore Ameri-
can Is well known. Justice was done
to Admiral Schley and the plates that
were kept locked up in a safe in the
Baltimore American building were de-
stroyed. There was never occasion to
use more than that one copy.

NEWSPAPERS BIG FEAT.
Gen. Felix Angus Unique Presenta-
ton of His Friend Schley's Case.

Gen. Felix Angus Unique Presenta-
1t was in one of his fights for a
friend and a principle that Gen. Felix
Agnus, editor and owner of the Balti-
more American, pulled off one Of the
most remarkable newspaper feats ever
recorded In this country, says the New
York Telegraph. 1t was at the time
that President Mckinley was contem-
plating sending to the Senate the naval
appointments that Gen. Agnus began to
take lively and dangerous interest in
the Sampson-Schley controversy. That
is, his interest was dangerous to Ad-
miral Sampson.
Not only did there exist a Damon
and Pythias friendship between Gen.
Agnus and Admiral Schley, but the
principle involved appealed to Gen. Ag-
nus. He learned that it was the in
tention of President Mckinley to send
to the Senate the names Of Schley and
Sampson on the same day, but giving
Sampson the preference and q rating
much higher than that of Schley. All
the fighting blood in Gen. Angus body
was aroused by this information. 1t
was up to him to make fight for
Schley-and he made 1t. He sent his
reporters, special correspondents and
special writers scurrying all over the
country. He gathered together a per-
feet presentation Of the case of Schley
and against Sampson. He gathered
every bit Of informa tion that it was
possible to collect about Sampson Us
