General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because it's 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 its beneficial effects always buy

MUST ADHERE TO TARIFF.
Important Ruling Is Made by Inter
state Commerce Commission.

In a decision of great interest to
railroad officials and shippers dis
posing of a reclamation case, the In
terstate Commission has held that "a
through rate regularly published be-
tween points and available under
tariffs over several different lines is
not nullified as to one such route by
the failure of participating carriers
to agree upon divisions over that
route
While some railroads assert that the
ruling was not required because the
principle involved always has been
insisted upon, others consider it time
", as it is a forcfb1e reminder to
freight traffic officials that they must
adhere conservatively to published
tariffs on all occasions. 1t is alleged
that this has not been done by some
lines, and in disagreements. over div
isions the initial road has been dis
posed to charge more than the legal
tariffs allow. Those that have lived
up to tariffs under all circumstances
say that by so doing a road with
which the originating line has no div
isfon might insist on its local rate,
and the initial road would have to
pay more than the through rate. The
tendency would be to prompt the lat
ter to deviate from the agreement.
It is, however, prohibited by the
ruling Just made. If a participating
carrier insists upon its local rate, the
road upon which the traffic origin
ates must pay it, even though it be
more than the through rate, and wait
until it has a chance to reciproeate in
kind

CHARGES SHERIFF WAS DRUNK
Crawford County Attorney swears to
the Complaint.

Pittsburg. Kan, Sept County
Attorney Wooley has sworn to a
complaint against Ed. Merriweather,
sheriff of Crawford county, charging
him with becoming intoxicated while
serving the state as sheriff.
The complaint grows out of Sun
day outing in the timber where Mer-
riWeather became involved in an al
tercation with a man named Hinsley
of Girard, and a personal encounter
ensued, in which Hinsley was severe
~ beaten.
1t is charged that the outing party
took with them key of beer and be-
came intoxicated and that the beer
was the cause of the trouble.
Sheriff Merriweather denies that
he was intoxicated. He states that
there had been ill feeling between
Hinsley and himself and that through
PERSONAL contact at the picnic the
trouble was revived and words led
to blows and he struck his adversary
number of times and in his anger
did him more damage than he in
tended or thought of doing.
Hinsley went to Dunkirk and Rad
" and got into trouble with parties
there and came back badly beaten up
on the Sunday night after the picnic,
the sheriff says, and was not beaten
up by Merriweather on Sunday.

THREE PERSONS ARE sCALDED.
Injuries Occurred When Plug in
Thresher Engine Blew Out.

Cherryvale. Kan. Sept. Bert
Good, engineer, and Gerald Gale. the
eight year old son of o. r. Gale,
were badly scalded and Maynard, the
six year old son of Herman Pittenger,
was slightly scalded by the blowing
out of a plug in a threshing machine
engine on the farm of Herman
Pittenger one-ha1f mile east of town.
Mr.. Good was scalded very badly
about the face and his arms and legs
were also burned. The Gale boy was
burned from the knees down
The Pfttenger boy was not burned
so badly as the others.
All are getting along nicely and
no serious results are anticipated.
The plug was one used to draw off
water from the boiler of the engine.
The pressure in the boiler ran high,
blowing out the plug and throwing
a stream of scalding water and steam
onto those near by. The engineer
was standing in front of the boiler at
the time and SO got the full force of
the explosion.
