00 mm1- TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also the care and skill with which it is -manufactured by scientific processes .known to the California Fig Svbtjp Co. only, and we wish to impress upon the importance of purchasing the toe and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured fcy the Califoknia Fig Svrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other pa iies. The high standing of the Cali fornia F3 Srxup 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 lr 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 xianseate.

" Last Wedrie-tfui7 w the most excit- tag day of the present session. The ' ataai mutes came in from the school -to attend, in a body, the sitting of our 1 lawmakers. . and see how laws were -cnAde. The leagon learned was not evi---oreotly, a profitable one, since the deco- rum of several persons on the floor of the bouse during tbe forenoon session was not up to tbe standard grade which it is supposed lawmakers would assume. This lack of good conduct was caused by comment and debate which was be ing held in regard to tbe merits and de fects of the proposed Daly school text book CDrjomieaion law. The afternoon was taken up in tbe &ouee with consideration in committee of the whole, Moody in the chair, of the tfcree appropriation bills. Tbe sums UKsed in these three bills, which have eea passed upon by the committee, ag gregate $1,182,924.62, and of this sum 4fa asvluin eetE (397,950, or a sum wiiich is $3,641.80 greater than one fthird of the total sums allowed for the amusing expenses of the state, besides tfae large sums allowed for schools, for extending several wings on public build lag, and other large sums paid for claims against the state. From this, it seems that this same asylum is something of a graft itself. Today work ia both houses is being rapidly pushed through, and great ef forts are being made to finish up the la bors of this body by Saturday night.

The usual symptoms are a full or bloat- ng sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour and watery risings, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing; headaches, fickle appetite. nervousness and a general played out languid feeling. There ia often a foul taste in the mouth coated tongue and if tbe interior of tbe tomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condition. The cure of this common and obsti nate trouble is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily .thor oughly digested before it can to ferment and irritate the delicate mucus surfaces of tbe stomach. To eecure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do, and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared. According to D.r. Harlanson tbe safest and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Diatase, Asep tic Pepsin, a little Nur, Golden Seal and iruit acids. These tablets van now be found at all drugstores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a patent medicine can be nsed with perfect safety and .assurance - that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will certainly follow their regular use af ter meals. Mr. N. J. Boober, of 2710 Dearborn street, Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting rom a neglected cold in tbe head, wbereby the lining membranes of the nose become inflamed and the poisonous diecharge therefrom passing backward into the throat reaches the stomach, thus pro ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of the stomach without cure, but today I am the happiest of men after nsing only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find ap propriate words to express my good feel ing. I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use." Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest preparation as well as the simplest 'and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrh of the Btomacb, billiousness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after meals. Send for little book mailed free, on stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. The .tablets can be found at all drugstores.
