Exceptional

of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments Of its chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and ElixF of Senna, in all of it's
excellence. by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
bene6cially and combining them most
slillfully, 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 Senna 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
one to decline limitations or to return them
if, upon viewing the package, the full name
Of the California Fig Syrup Co. is not found
printed on the front thereof.

rARIFF ON WATCHES.

IT He. Association Of American Retail Jew
4 elers is desirous of having incorporated
into the tariff bill provision that watches sold
in foreign countries that are in whole or in part
of American manufacture and bearing the name
and trade mark of American manufacturers
should come into the United States free of duty
This calls TO mind the scandal in the manufac-
turing trade that has weighed heavily upon the
retail jewellers who are subject to the watch
trust The National Jewellers Association favors
this provision in the tariff bill because under it
they could secure American watches from
abroad and sell them TO their customers in
America cheaper than they could buy them here
at home from the American manufacturers. In
other words, under the present operations of
the watch trust man is fined for being an
American. If he wants to buy an American made
watch. He will pay more for his watch in
America than he would pay for the same watch
if he should buy it while travelling abroad
The watch manufacturers seem to have the
tariff makers at Washington completely at their
mercy. The cheapest kind of imported watch
movements pay the equivalent of a % per cent
ad vaorem duty. The duty on watch cases is
90 per cent The watch manufacturers want
more protection at home but they need none
abroad where they have built up a large and lu-
cratve trade by selling watches forty per cent
cheaper than they do in America. They ap-
peared before the tariff makers at Washington
and got an increase of duty despite the protests
of the Retailers Association. The retail watch
dealers are at the mercy of a combine that ex-
ceeds the paper trust in the extent of hoggish-
ness.
II is lust such examples as this that are caus-
ing the criticism of the AldFch tariff measure
that are calling forth protests from one end of
the country to the other. Even in rock ribbed
Vermont some Of the Repubcai papers are cry
ing out against the Aldrich bill

Chatty Stories OF the Day

II is not always safe TO medde with the unfamiliar.

the following story illustrating the simplicity of the

Philadelphia Barber EnIists Aid of
Agricultural Department.
Three Hundred Mulberry Trees Now
Growing on Jersey Farm--Yeariy
Yield of Cocoons Expected to
Reach 700 Pounds.


Philadelphia, PA silk farm"
has been established near this city
with the aid of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. 1t is not, as
yet, an extensive one, but it is in
charge of a proficient and experienced
silk-worm raiser.
At present the farm contains 300
young white mulberry trees, which
the government sent to the .rSioneer
here, James Carvello, who six Jays In
the week is journeyman barber, and
at all times an enthusiastic silk grow
er. The trees were sent as an expert
ment.
About a year ago Carvello heard
that the government was preparing to
assist in the culture of the silk worm
in this country. His father-in-law,
Charles Moroni, was for IA years en-
gagged in the industry near Rome,
and together they decided to go to
Washington and volunteer to make ex-
periments If the government would as
sist them to get the trees necessary
for the work The silk worms are vo-
racious and at the same time dainty
feeders. and their proper culture, to a
large extent, depends upon supplying
them with sufficient food of the right
kind.
Carvello and Moroni were ques.
tione and were found to have had the
necessary experience, so the govern
ment officials agreed to supply both
trees and worms. When the trees
arrived they were about eight inches
high Carvello planted 800 in close
rows In boxes In the little yard back
of his dwelling, TIA ST. Adams street.
The trees sent to Moroni were planted
on his place at Somers Point, N. j.,
where he has lot about one hundred
and fifty feet square.
The trees now in Carvello's yard
are about six feet high, and have
large leaves, but are too young as yet
for the purpose for which they are In
tended. Two years more will be re-
quired before their growth is suffi cient
to establish a colony of silk worms.
Carvello said that he would take the
young trees to his father-in-law's
place this fall, where they will be
transplanted.
"The air here in Philadelphia" said
Carvello, is not pure enough for the
trees. There is too much carbon In
1t. / intend to take the trees down
to my father-in-iaw's place. He has
more room than have Together we
shall have 600 trees, and in five or six
years we should have yearly yield OF
cocoons of about 700 pounds. The
government offers to buy all the co
coons we raise at s1.25 a pound.

ancient kingdom, where are stored
materials for the history of England
during the last 500 years.
The famous Shakespearean discov-
cries of DR.. G. w. Wallace have di-
rected fresh attention to this wonder
full storehouse of the archives of the
past. These last few days numbers
of people have drifted thither in the
vague hope of seeing the document
he describes or of finding something
equally valuable. 1t is only necessary
to breathe the name of Shakespeare
to make oneself exceedingly unpopu-
lar with the officials. They are al
but they dread and detest the merely
curious person or the crank.
People who believe there is money
due them are a perpetual trial. They
have hazy notions of some chancery
suit in which an ancestor was con.
cerned. They sit all day pouring over
court records. They are almost as
fatuous as the searchers at Somerset
house, who start reading all the wills
of the last century in the hope o1
finding themselves entitled to some
forgotten legacy.
Broadly, the records are divisible
into two classes-state papers and
legal documents. 1t was among the
former that Froude and Freeman and
j. r. Green and other historians found
materials for their books. The latter
are not quite so interesting, but there
are fascinating side lights upon our
social history to be drawn from them
Their very number shows, for ex.
ample, how amazingly litigious Eng
lishmen used to be.
The reason probably was that near
ly all were copyholders of land and
knew certain amount of law them
selves. At all events they delighted
in lawsuits; would institute proceed
ings upon what seem now the slight
est ground, and even get up cases in
a friendly way apparently just to keep
