General Demand

OF the Well-lnformed OF the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its 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 ox-
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
the -enuine-manuiactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co, only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cent?

Chemical Works, duties which may keep
him there for eight or twelve months,
but which in all events prevent him
from keeping a permanent home here.
Mr.. Brown, who has for the last
twelve years been connected with the
local agency of the chemical company,
and who has been up to the time of his
transfer, its manager, came mere in 1898
and with short trips away has remained
with the local branch since that time.
He returned q few weeks ago from the
Orient where he laid his plans for the
work that is again taking him from
these ISLANDS. During his last stay
there he established an agency in Ma
Mia and in Japan and three in China.
He Will have no regular headquarters
in the Orient but VIII establish them
either in Chicago or New York. This
is, with the exception of agencies estab-
lished in Tuba, the first time the big
firm with which he is connected has
branched out into the foreign trade and
ne has the honor of being the first man
ageT of the newly created foreign de-
partment.
While in Chicago recently he gave an
address before the Association of Com
merce on American trade in the Orient
and at that time he said:
1.-The Chinese like Americans better
than they do any other race. They
want 10 do business with US. All they
ask is a square deal, and the American
merchant has the preference every time
With all this in our favor and a popu-
larion of 400,oo0,000 possible customers
eager to welcome US, it is disheartening
to find that there are just two represen-
tatiVe American corporations doing
business on a large scale in China. They
are the Standard Oil company and the
American Tobacco c0mpany.'

merchants doing less than $1,000 BUS
