THE EXCELENCE OF SYBDP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figfs is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one iu avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other pat ties. The high standing of the Cali fornia Fro Svkup Co. with the medi cal profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weaken ing them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate.

SICK OR WELL, A RUSH NIGHT AND DAY. The Packers at the Battle of Santiago de Cuba Were all Heroes Tbeir Heroic Kfforts In Getting Ammunition and Rations to the Front Saved the Day. P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writing from Sandiago, De Cuba, cn July 23d, says: "We all had diarrhoea in more or lesa violent form, and when we landed we had no time to see a doctor, for it was a case of rush and rush night and day to keep the troopa sup plied with ammunition and rations, but thanks to Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at work and keep our health; in fact, I sincerely believe that at one critical time this medicine waa the in direct saviour cf our army, for if the packera had been unable to work there would have been no way of getting sup plies to the front. There were no roads that a wagon train could use. My com rad and myself had the good fortune to lay in a supply of this medicine for our pack-train before we left Tampa, and I know in four cases it absolutely eaved life." The above letter was written to the manufacturers of this medicide, the Chamberlain Medicine Co., Dea Moines, Iowa. For sale by Blakeley and Hough ton.
