Mother, Don't scold your cross,
peevish child! Look at the tongue!

sleeping well, is restless, doesn't eat
heartily or is cross, irritable, out OF
sorts with everybody, stomach sour,
feverish, breath bad; has stomach
ache, diarrhoea, sore throat, or is full
of cold it means the little ones stom-
ach, liver and 80 feet of bowels are
filled with poisons and foul consti-
pated waste matter and need a gen
tie, thorough, cleansing at once.
Give a teaspoonful of Syrup of Figs,
and in a few hours all the clogged
up waste, undigested food and sour
bile will gently move on and out of
its little waste clogged bowels with
out nausea, gripping or weakness, and
you will surely have a well, happy
and smiling child again shortly.
With Syrup of Figs you are not

posed entirely of luscious figs, senna

besides they dearly love its delicious
taste.
Mothers should always keep Syrup
of Figs handy. 1t is the only stomach,
liver and bowel cleanser and regulator
needed - a little given today will
save a sick child tomorrow.

ages and for grown-ups plainly print

IN SOCIETY
By Mary Gwynn Whiteman Telephone 142

ial programs have been prepared in
the various schools throughout Am
erica of Riley's poems.
That James Whitcomb Riley was
once an entertainer at a medicine
show, and that he was for several
years an itinerant sign painter are
some of the first facts a school boy
learns about him.
After leaving the sign painters, Mr..
Riley secured work on small daily
newspaper, at much smaller salary
Believing his poems to possess some
merit, he contributed under the nom
de plume of Benjamin F Johnson,
to a journal.
This Benjamin F. Johnson was sup
posed to be an illiterate farmer who
loved nature.
''The Old Swimming Hola' was
his first contribution and the editor
of the Journal gave it a most flat.
tering introduction.
With the twelfth poem the real all
thorship was announced.

CIRCUS

The Sells Floto Circus has what
you might call a whole flock of ba-
bies with it this year. OF course ev-
cry sef-respecting show must have a
baby, but it is not often that the visit
0rs to the menagerie finds as many
as five little tigers, six baby lions,
three small bears, a juvenile camel.
and last but not least baby zebu.
The first probably ever seen in a
menagerie in this country. Added to
these is baby hippopotamus, also
three baby elephants, the eldest OF
which is but seventeen months old.
OF this wonderful collection the baby
Zebu will no doubt, attract the maj "
portion of attention by reason of its
rarity.
The zebus attain their greatest de
velopment in India, but the breed is
found eastward to Japan and west
ward to the Nigro. All the sculptors
of elephants, which are of the highest
antiquity, represent these cattle. They
are used in many parts OF India as
beasts of burden and occasionally for
riding, being venerated by the Hin
docs who consider it a sin to slaugh-
ter them, although they do not object
to working them.
The white zebu bulls, one of which,
by the way, is owned by the Sells
Floto circus, are held particularly
sacred by the Hindoos. They are
branded by the image of silva, re-
lieved from all labor and allowed to
wander at will. levying contributions
on the stalls and bazaars without let
or hindr.nce.
The Sells-Floto circus will arrive
here on Wednesd Oct. 16.
The management has announced
that they still adhere to their policy
of popular prices The time honored
parade will be given 1890 on the
morning of the first performance.
