MOTHER! LOOK At
CH|LD'S TONGUE
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give ''CaIifornia Syrup
of Figs"

A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
sour.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listless, cross, few
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give
teaspoonful of california Syrup OF
Figs then don't worry, because it IS
perfectly harmless, and in few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a we'll. playful child again. A thor
ough inside cleansing" is Outlines all
that is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups'
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle OF
''California Syrup of Figs" which has
full directions for babies, children OF
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.

life and then of the determination of
the representatives to procure the
token and tender it to the widow of

vice would be sent to Mrs. Wooten at
Kinston.

propriate1y engraved presented to

Tor battles, old age for counsel but
there are times that demand action
more than conference and consldera-
ton. Courage is only OF value, now
ever, when based upon much training,
devotion to God, the interests OF otn-
ers, and a clear vision. 1t is not
mere flash in lifes pathway. Courage
is contagious; Jonathan's feat set on
fire the soul of a nation. Read again
the roll of honor in the eleventh chap
ter of Hebrews. The highest courage
is not physical but moral. This cour-
age is open to all, but it is intelligent

Jonathan did not go alone. On the
other hand it is not probable this young
lad would have gone up those rocks
had not Jonathan led the way; be-
cause one went before him, he was
able to scale the fortress. God alone
knows the heights to which we may
attain, but does not ask us to go alone.
nor expect us to do the impossible.

The Prospscto Were Excellent but
They Were Too One Sized.

They Were Too One Sized.
A young singer who had lren Study
ing for opera work had the good for
tune TO lie engaged by an inlpresario
for Il tour through south Amcfici His
chest swelled with pride as lie walked
the deck Of the steamer that was 10
lake him ON lis FIRST "trip TO foreign
lands. On the second morning out lie
was much surprised to meet an old
classmate, who, like himself, was Il
tenor singer.
well, well. where did YOU come
from? Where are you going?' each
asked the other.
And each answered, I'm engaged by
an opera company for South Ameri-
can tour
my manager is on this steamer"
said one.
and mine too
Within five minutes both singers
found that they had been engaged by
the same opera company for the same
part. what does the man mean by
hiring two different men for the role
of first tenor?' asked one.
Pardon me-" interrupted a youth
who had been standing near and over
heard their conversation. You have
myself and two other singers for CONF
panlons in this affair. We have just
found out to our surprise that we have
all been engaged by the same man for
the same part on the same tour. What
under the sun can he mean by having
five first tenorsY
The FIVE youths then took counsel
together and decided that they would
see the manager and demand an ex-
PLANTATION.
They found him on the forward deck.
He listened. seemingly amused at their
complaint, and said: Gentlemen, don't
you worry. | am an old an cxperienc-
ed man in this game and know what
am doing. If you were acquainted
with the climate of South America you
would know yourselves that it is abso-
lutely necessary. We shall scarcely
arrive there before three or four of
you fellows will be stricken with the
deadly tropical fever. Experience has
taught me in all my tropical tours to
allow for all sorts of mishaps and mis-
fortunes. or course you can see what
excellent prospects are offered to the
chap who is able to withstand every
thing" And with these words the
manager retired to his cabin
The five young singers then sat down
and debated the excellent prospects
They soon came to n decision One
chance in five of being star singer
instead of Il dead one did not prove
sufficiently attractive. So when the
steamer stopped mt Liverpool the
youths went ashore, and the impresario
never saw them asain.-You:h's Com
