THE EXCELLENCE OF SYKUP 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 Fia SrBUP 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 Fig Struf 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 JPi'i Syrup 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.

The so'diera in Manila are hoping fiat they will be mastered out there, sad al'.owel the mileaje and pay which would be due them. A recent order issued to paymasters eives the follow' instructions: "All offices will be entitled to one day's pav for every 20 miles of travel from place of muster out to place of en rollment. Enlisted men will be en titled to the same, and to subsistence at the rate of 30 cents per day for every 20 miles traveled as above. ' Fractions of day, less than one-half (ten miles) will not be considered. For a day, equal to half a day, a full day's pay will be al lowed." . As there are 420 days' travel "between here and Manila, allowing 'twenty. miles to a day, this would mean a good "clean up" for the boys, and the officers would get home as corpulent as a lucky Klon diker. - See Yourself as Otuers See Yon.

Mor gan is suspected of having stolen a large quantity of nuggets or ' gold dust from the SIoan-Haekell Mining Company, at Susanville. He came to this county last September, and has spent most of his time in the mountains near Susan ville, but for some time . past is eaid to have been in the employ of the Sloan Haskell Co.
