achache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give a
teaspoonful of california Syrup of
Figs and in few hours all the fou
waste, the sour bile and fermenting
food passes out of the bowels and you
have we'll and playful child again.
Children love this harmless fruit lax
alive" and mothers can rest easy after
giving it, because it never fails to make
their little 'insides" clean and sweet.
Keep it handy, Mother! A little
given today saves sick child tomor
morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your
druggist for 50-cent bottle of Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs" which has
directions for babies, children of all
ages and for grown-ups plainly on the
bottle. Remember there are counter
feits sold here, so surely look and see
that yours is made by the 'FCalifornia
Fig Syrup Company" Hand back with
contempt any other fig syrup, -Ad-

stenographer he had been sent by the

He was caught soon after and it was

What $ the Use?

Man tolls at his appointed task
till hair is gray and teeth are

to ask, in tones despondent,
whats the use?' We have dis
tempers OF the mind when we are
tired and sorely tried we'd like
To quit the beastly grind. and let
The tail 60 with the hide. The
money goes for shoes and pie, for
hats and pork and dairy juice; to
get ahead we strive and try, and
still are broke, so what's the use !?
Then, gazing round us, we behold
the down-and-outerS In the street ::
they shiver in the biting cold,
they trudge along on weary feet.
They have no home, they have
no bed. no shelter meath the Win
try sky; they'll have no peace till
they are dead, and planted where
the paupers lie. No comfort
theirs till in the cell that has 4
clammy earthen lid; yet some of
them deserve as well of Fortune
as we ever did. And, having
seen the hungry throng, if we're
good sports we cease to sigh; we
go to work with CHEEKY song, and
make the fur and feathers fly.
