good health, with it's blessings, must un- derstand, quite clearly, that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies With proper knowledge of what is best, each hour of recreation, of enjoy ment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to living alright Then the use of medicines may be dis pensed with to advantage, but under or dinary conditions in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invalu- able if taken at the proper time and the California Fig Syrup Co. holds that it is alike important to present the subject truthfully and to supply the one perfect laxative to those desiring it.
 Consequently, the Company's Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna gives general satisfaction. To get its beneficial effects buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists.

Does the World Think?

Man is evidently made for thought: this Is his whole dignity and his whole merit; his whole duty is to think as he ought. Now the order of thought Is to begin with self, and with it's au- thor and it's end. Now of what thinks the world? Never of these things. but of dancing, playing the lute singing. making verses, tilting at the ring, etc, of fighting, making ourselves kings, without thinking what it is to be king or what to be a man.-Pascal.

And the fruit!
