TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYEUP 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 Svrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
ell the importance of purchasing1 the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Fig's is manufactured
by the California Fig Srmrp Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pa
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FORNIA Ft? 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
bowel3 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
the Company

PASSENGER RATES MAY TOTTER
Uuless Illegal Freight-Kate Catting Is
Stopped, Which is a Menace to the
Peace Now Prevailing
There is a vital . danger threatening
recently restored passenger rates. The
illegal freight-cutting now going on may
irritate and spread to such an extent as
to unsettle passenger rates.
None except railway men and shippers
understand the peculiar situation. Pas
senger rates have been restored. A
friendly spirit prevails. Alr passenger
men are anxious to Bee the rates kept as
they are. Yet, while the the passenger
men are on the best of terms, the freight
agents are cutting ani slashing. There
in lurka a constant danger to the peace
comDact of the passenger department,
Though of widely diverging character,
the freight and passenger departments,
in one way, are cloeely allied, and the
troubles or the freight department are
liable to creep into the passenger de
partment, then farewell to harmony.
All the freight agents deny that rates
are being quoted below tariff prices, but
a reporter may see a dozen telegrams a
day from agents and shippers showing
that concessions are granted to shippere,
which means practically the same thing
Every ingenious schemo ia resorted to in
order to gain business without it being
said that rates are quoted below tariff.
A few decisive steps on the part of the
interstate commerce commissioners
would effectually stop illegal ratecutting
and sweep away the danger threatening
passenger rates. The agents themselves
are anxious to end the tireless tinder
hand struggle, but so long as the other
fellow gets business illegally he must
protect himself. Telegram.

Three Doctors In Consultation.
From Benjamin Franklin. -"When
you are sick, what you like
best is to be chosen for a medicine in the
first place; what experience telle you is
best, to be choeen. in the second place;
what reason (i. e.. Theory' says is best
is to b3 chosen in the last place. But if
you can get Dr. Inclination. Dr. Ex
perience and Dr. Reason to hold a con
sultation together, they will give you
the best advice that can be taken."
When you have a bad cold Dr. Incli
nation would recommend Cbamberlain'e
Cough Remedy because it ia pleasant
and safe to take. Dr. Experience would
recommend it because it never fails to
effect a speedy and permanent cure.
Dr. Reason -would recommend it because
it ia prepared on fcientinc principles,
and acts on nature's plan in relieving
the lungs, opening the secretions and
restoring the system ' to a natural and
healthy condition. For sale by Blakeley
