TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYBUP 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. Fiq Svrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing- the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fio Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding' the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pat
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia F't Sykop 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
Jar 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 name of

HOW THE CHILD SUFFERS.
Should Ilave n Thorough .Examination
on Entering School.
Speaking on the subject of children's
eyes: A great many children are sent to
school with eye defects which demand
great expenditure of nervous forces in
order for them to keep up with those
who enter on the same work with j
natural eyes.
The eame children are often c'assed
as idle or stupid, when in reality their
mental condition may be just as keen
as their classmates, the failure to keep
pace being entirely due to defective
vision. In some cases by virtue of great
persistence, they succeed in keeping
abreast of their more fortunate com
panions ; but this task is accomplished
at the expense of vital energies which
often lays the foundation of future
disease. It is not uncommon and cer
tainly not improper to have the first
teeth ot children lour 01 nve years 01 age
filled instead of extracted ; while the
eye, the most intellectual, the most ap
prehensive and the most discriminating
of all our organs, receives scarcely a pas
sing thought, mnch less an examination.
It seems never to occur to some par
ents that the principal agent in requir
ing an education is the eye. lhe child
is ulaced in school without the eiigbest
inquiry on the part of either parent or
teacher, as to whether it hag the normal
amount of sight, whether it be near
sighted or far sighted, whether it be
clear or blurred, whether it sees with
one eye or two eyes, or whether the act
of vision is accomplished at the ex
pense of an unnatural strain upon the
nervous svstem. !
It would be a boom to the children
that attend our public schools if the
board of education would enact a regu
lation which would require a certificate
from some competent doctor of refrac
t-on, one who has graduated from some
good optical college or school, who had
found them to be normal or had cor
rected the eye to be normal.
But I realize that such a radical
measure would meet with much opposi
tion and might possibly defeat the very
end it was intended to accomplish. A
careful study of the eubject of children's
eyes leads me to suggest to the teacherB
of the schools making a test of each
pupils vision. hor that use 1 will
gladly furnish charts and instructions
to find out the errors of each pupil's
eves, which might lead to the discovery
why pupils have been kehind :n their
studies.
If a child, whose vision is but wtak
and with proper glasses will help it
to outgrow its defected vision and use
them while young, will probably in nine
cases out of ten, have no use for glasses
after a few montbB, or perhaps for study
ine only.
Unly those who have been relieved bv
the use of glasses understand what bear
ing the condition of the eye has on
general health. There are childreu to
day sick because of eye-strain. Their
illness may be attributed to other causes.
but they go along eick until the true
cause be discovered by the exercise of
good common sense on the part of par
ents. If your child complains of the
eves, see what the trouble is. Take her
to an optician ; one who understands bis
work, not a man who simply hangs out
a sign, 'tJlasses for bale , but to an
optician. I will be glad to examine any
case of eyes, and if you need glasses J
will tell you so, if not, 1 will tell you so
It costs you nothing to find out. Ex

Xealness Cannot beCared

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is bv constitutional remedies,
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur

A CRITICAL TIME
During the Battle at
Santiago.
SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
Th Packers at tho Battle of Santiago d
Ciafra Were all HeroeH Their Heroic
Kft'orts In Getting; Ammunition and
lUtloni to the Front Saved the Day.
P. E. Bntler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Sandiago, De Cuba, on
July 23d, says: "We all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we lauded we had no time to Bee 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 saviour of our army, 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 coin-
rad and myself had the good fortune to
lay in a supply of this medicine for out
pack-train before we left Tampa, and I
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life."

manufacturers of this medicide, the

Chaplain C.
nr
BISHOP IN THE M. E. CHURCH,
In answer to an urgent call by the church in
this city, will deliver his famous lecture on the
"MON 81 of Life inlly PUSH"
AT THE
Methodist Church, Sept. 22, at 7:30 p.m.
This continues to be one of the most noted lectures of the day. It is always
given in the interests of the church, and has made for it more than $150,000.
The price of this lecture in all Eastern cities is $1.00, but we have reduced the
price to 50 cents, to give all an opportunity to hear it, especially accomodating
those of neighboring towns and counties.
Bishop McCabe sees a bright side in every thing. This lecture is instructive,
entertaining and inspiring. It was Chaplain McCabe that tore up his shirt to make
a flag with which to celebrate the 4th of July in Libby Prison. Hia singing has
inspired many a soul to deeds of heriosm and many a fainting heart to renewed
courage.
