THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP 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
11 the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fio Strup 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 Ffj 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
iar 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

JTwo Boys' Narrow Escape.
'"Oregon City, Jan. 14. Two sons of
Walter Kiroheui, of Logan, Norve, aged
12, and a younger brother 5-year3 old,
had a miraculous escape from drowning
in the Clackamas river three miles above
the hatchery yesterday. The boys drove
down to the river with a wagon and
team to get a "load of gravel. To rench
the gravel bed they had to drive through
the edge of the stream around a clump
of willows, but the river was unusually
high and they suddenly found them
selves in deep, swift-miming water,
The boys floated off the' wagon on a
narrow plank and down the turbulent
waters of the Ciai'kamas over rapids for
about a milt, when in some way tbe
plank with its human freight .reached
the shore. The horses were carried 3
miles down the stream aud were

High Price for Hay.

fered as .high as $ 12 per ton for 100 tons
of packed hay yesterday, and were un
able to buy any. This ia the highest
price offered for hay in the stack for
many years. Very few farmers have
any hay to Bell, and those who have, in
anticipation of a continuance of tbe pre
vailing bad weather, are asking more
than stockmtn can afford to pay. How

PHILIPPINE
IMPROVEMENTS
War Department Encouraged By tbe
Receipt of News From Otis Con
tradicting Recent Rumors.
Washington, Jan. 14. War depart
ment officials were very much encour
aged today upon receipt of the news
from Otis at Manila, that indicated a
distinct improvement in the situation
there.
The general's dispatch completely
negatives the absurd story from Madrid
of tbe American troops at Manila hav
ing mutinied and refused to proceed to
Ilo Ilo, necessitating the withdrawal of
Miller's forces from that port. Otis la
master wherever he has planted his foot
and undoubtedly is able to carry out any
policy aa to treatment of natives the ad
ministration ia likely to dictate.
There are indications that encourage
officials here to believe that the con
ciliatory policy toward the natives that
was recently adopted will succeed, al
though it cannot be expected that the
Filipinos will be convinced at once of
the absolute good faith in which Otia is
acting toward them.
