of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of its chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
benefcially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
As there is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA and as the gen.
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial effects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables

Newspaper English.

Nowhere is the evil effect of news
papers shown better than in the free
way they use the English language
IN designating their editions. A die
onary is no guide whatsoever Their
labels must be learned by sheer
force, like irregular verbs.
The last" edition is not the final
edition and the final" is not the
last No matter which of these two
is later, there is very likely another
called postscript" or final COM
plete" or otherwise meaningless. The
afternoon" edition comes out in the
morning.
The night edition comes out in
The afternoon. The first" second
and third" editions never come out
at all. They always begin with high

issued regularly, and there is no
regularity about the regular" edi-
tons.
After all that it is no wonder that
the news is unreliable.-ElIis O..

Most things. are governed by the

crop of fools isn't one of them.
There are people SO constituted
that they seem to get lot of enjoy

The fellow who does the most talk

to make his escape before the hat is

they arrive in Dallas today, after hav-
