TEE EXCELLENCE CF SYRUP OF FIGS

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 purchasing1 the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fis Syrup Co.

assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pa
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fio Syktjp 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 name of
the Company -

The Quakers,
TJheae queer people Called Quakers or
the silent worshippers of the Almighty
God, have from century to century re
tained their religious reputation free
from all blemishes, by their daily
practice of honesty, integrity and social
purity. HiBtory teaches us that in
olden times these eoodjpeople were ter
ribly persecuted for their religious be
lief. But through all the punishment
bestowed on them they proved to be
the happiest and most contented class of
people on God's green foot-stool. Absti
nence, chastity, peace.'good will and
brotherly love is the foundation stone of
their faith, their motto being peace and
good will toward all men.

COURT-MARTIAL
' FOR EAGAN
President McKinley AnMaces His Ie
tention to Orfler It.
AMENDED STATE
MENT PUBLIC
Eagan Has Eliminated all Objectionable
Langoage From His Statement
Incident Closed so Far as Commis
sion is Concerned. '
Washington, Jan. 17. President Mc
Kinley announced to the cabinet at the
regular meeting today that he has de
termined to court martial Commissary
General Egan. Alger was not at the
cabinet meeting, but with Adjutant
General Corbin was at the White Houee
in conference with the president on the
subject just prior to the cabinet session.
An order for the court martial probably
will be made today.
Just prior to the cabinet meeting Gen
eral Miles made a rather unusual call
upon two of the members of the cabinet,
Hays and Long. He had just returned
to the city from New York, and when
spoken to with reference to the Eagan
case adhered to his original declaration
that this was not the time for him to
act, if at all, leaving the implication
that If the commission or the adminis
tration did not act it would then be
time for him to take some steps.
Washington, Jan. 17. The war in
vestigating commission today stated that
the amended statement of Eagan would
be made public, and newspaper men
were allowed access to it. Eagan has
eliminated all objectionable language
and the phraseology has been altered
frequently. Eagan while referring to
Miles as the "senior general" resents
any resumption of Miles' superiority,
and asserts that be (Eagan) is as good,
old and experienced a soldier as Miles.
He also criticises the latter 's attack on
the beef industry as infamous. It is
believed that so far as the commission is
concerned the incident is now closed.
Colonel Gibson, distributing agent of
the National Beef Association at San
tiago, testified before the commission
today. Gibson said the canned corn
beef furnished at Santiago was unfit for
use. The commission. then adjourned
until tomorrow.
Deafness Cannot De Carert
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
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-
eyar ; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous ear
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free. .

Ij Grippe Successfully Treated,
"I have just recovered from the . sec
ond attack of La Grippe this year," says
Mr. Ja9. A. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, Mexia, Texas. "In the latter
case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, and I think with considerable suc
cess, only being in bed a little over two
days against ten days for the former at
tack. The second attack I am satisfied
would have been equally as bad as the
first but for the use of this remedy as I
bad to go to bed in about six hours after
being 6truck' with it, while in the first
case I was able to attend to business
about two days before getting 'down.' "

8am Jones on Kissing.
The noted evangelist, Sam- Jones, has
the right idea in regard to the criticisms
on Hobson's kissing tour. However, he
certainly could not have taken as his
text upon the occasion wbeu he made
the following statements, the words of
the Bible. "Greet all the brethren with
a holy kiss," which would excuse the
sisters for their conduct and compel
Hobson to receive them without a mur
mur. He says :
"The newspapers may . decry Hobson
and speak ill of him, but he has the pro
found sympathy of my heart. Why, to
kiss everybody that comes along, from
the old maid with moss on ber lips to
the gay widow ; to kis the old sister
whose nose and chin are meeting; to kiss
the good, the bad and the indifferent.
"Gentlemen, I like kissing, but I want
to pick the time, place and case. Poor
Hobson. He needs the prayers of the
church and the sympathy of bis com
rades." '
Bow to Prereot Pneumonia.
You are perhaps aware that pneu
monia always results from a cold or from
an attack of La Grippe. During the
epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in pneu
monia, it was observed that the attack
was never followed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Bemedy was used.
It counteracts any tendency of a cold or
La Grippj to result in that dangerous
dieease. It is the best remedy in tbe
world for bad colds and La Grippe.
Every bottle warranted. For sale by

People overlooked tbe importance of
permanently beneficial effects and were
