Mil-
TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF JIGS
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 Fia Siteup
Co- only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing1 the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pak
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fro Sykup 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. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the -n ame of
the Company

Showers with thunder, or the result
of thunder-storm conditions, occurred
on August 29th to 31st and September
3d, amounting to from a trace to 0.23 of
an inch. The mean temperature for the

last year, heavy and general rain fell
The highest temperature daring the

40, on Sunday morning.
In Union county, considerable grain
is still to be cat; elsewhere it is practic
ally all cut, though not threshed. In
ections threshing is well along, in others
it is about finished. Reports continue
s to the favorable yield. One corres
pondent reports : "The grain crop this
year, in quality and yield, is the best in
fourteen years." Many correspondents
report that the grain crop is up to all
expectations, and as expectations were
high, a good crop has resulted. Fall
seeding has commenced. Some are
seeding in the dust, in the hope that the
rains will give it proper position.
One correspondent reports: "Prunes
early apples, blackberries and peaches
are abundant, and are being shipped to
a considerable' extent. Threshing is
over, and a larger grain crop than usual
baa been stored away. Baled hay and
straw, potato .patches, cornfields, clipped
meadows, . and numerous fat cattle j
comfort for man and beast daring the
coming winter." -
Another reports: "Clover and alfalfa
have been cat twice, and are growing
again for pasture."
Fruit is maturing and being shipped.
Prune drying is active. Melons and
peaches are good crops. There are no
adverse reports from field, orchard or
range. Crops ate good and the people
are satisfied with the results. Within
a few weeks all crops will be gathered,
and work commenced for next year's
crops.
The weather conditions have assumed
their their characteristics. Cooler nights
with warm days will prevail, until the
winter storm conditions appear.

General Debility
and Loss of Flesh
Scott's Emulsion has been the
standard remedy for nearly a
quarter of a century. Physicians
readily admit that they obtain re
sults from it that they cannot get
from any other flesh-forming food.
There are many other prepara
tions on the market that pretend
to do what
SCOTT'S
EMULSION.
does, but they fail to perform it.
The pure Norwegian Cod-liver Oil
made into a delightful cream, skill
fully blended with the Hypophos
phites of Lime and Soda, which
are such valuable tonics,
makes this preparation an
ideal one and checks the
wasting tendency, and the
fatient almost immediate
y commences to put on
flesh and gain a strength
which surprises them.
Be sure you get SCOTT'S Emulsion. See that ths
man and fish are on the wrapper.

P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Sandisgo, De Cuba, cn
July 23d, eays: "We all had diarrhoea
in more or lees 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 troops 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 was the in
direct eaviour of our arrny, for if the
packers 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 out
