SYRUP OF FIGS FOR
 A CHILD'S BOWELS
It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh phySic into a
 sick child.

Look back at your childhood days. Remember the dose mother insisted on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's S revolt is well-found- ed Their tender little "insides" arc injured by them.
 If your child's stomach. liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" Its action is positive. but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that it never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomach, and that teaspoonful given today saves sick child tomor- row.
 Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs" which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on each bottle. Adv.

KICKED A BARREL OF BEES
Supreme Court of Georgia Gets Case of Negro Who Was Bending
 Over 1t.

The supreme court of Georgia must decide the unique point of whether swarm of bees can be considered a deadly weapon,' the Atlanta Con- stitution states.
 The case originated in a criminal court in Atlanta and involves the most astonishing defense ever put forward in case of assault with intent to murder.
 An Atlanta negro, Roscoe Richards. was standing last summer over a bar rel full of watermelon rinds. The barrel was also full of bees feeding on the rinds, fact which Roscoe didn't know. As he bent his head down into the barrel to see if there wasn't something worth picking up another negro kicked the barrel. The bees arose angrily and lighted all over Roscoe's ebony head and face.
 Roscoe turned over in the air. but when he alighted he came down like a cat on his feet and his razor was all ready out and open. He is said to have attacked the other negro and literally cut him to pieces. Richards employed lawyers and when the case came to trial recently he pleaded not guilty and interposed the simple plea of 'self-defense.
 His lawyers pI>sluced evidence to show that in many cases people had been stung to death by bees. They proved the facts of the case and let it go at that. The defense. independent of Roscoe Richards personal interest in the outcome. has brought up one of the prettiest points in the history of the Georgia criminal courts.

Locked Up Potash.

About two miles northeast of Su- perior, Wyo.. are the Leucite hills. which are made up largely of igneous rocks in the form of volcanic necks. shsets intruded into the stratified rocks. and dikes cutting across the sedimentary strata.
 Associated with these intrusive rocks are volcanic cones and lava flows. These rocks have long been objects of scientific interest because of their unusual character.
 Lately they have attracted addi- tional interest by reason of the pot ash-rich mineral. leucite. they contain. which may some day be utilized if a process can be found for extracting the potash cheaply.
 It has been estimated that the ig- neous rock of the Leucite hills con tains more than 9i,000.0o0 tors ff potash.

Jump from Bed
 in Morning and
 Drink Hot Water
Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning
 before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, Respondent worried some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really incapaci tated by illness.
 If we all would practice inside-bath. ing, what gratifying change would take place. Instead of thousands >of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy checked people everywhere. The req son is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates under our pres ent mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the sys- tenn nearly an ounce of waste material must be carried out, else it ferments and forms ptomaine-like poisons which are absorbed into the blood.
 Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear lhS Oi 6dll5 ol tliC pi CNAOuo uay . accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, wheth- CT sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach. liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before put ting more food into the stomach.
 Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranks about the morning inside-bath.
