An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy.
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
cr irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
pther aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

ANDREE MAY RETURN
Theory of a Vienna Explorer on the
Subject.
The Discoverer of Ftani Josef Lsnd
Thinks the Lost Aeronaut May
Return Through' That
Country.
Berr Julius von Payer, of Vienna,
an experienced' explorer who was ont
of the leaders in the discovery of Franz
Josef Land, thinks Andree may yet re
turn via that country, although he is
not very sanguine His theory is that
Andree, after leaving Spitzbergen, ma
have fallen into a strong air current
which carried the balloon for several
days toward the- northeast,, and then
drove it in. a southeasterly direction.
That, he believes would bring them to
the east coast of Franz Josef Land.
From that, place the little party would
have, to -make its way over dangerous
ice not always continuous, and with
open &ea in places, to the coast of Si
beria. But even when they arrived
there if, indeed, they na ve been so f or-
tunate their work would not be near
ly over. It is still a long and difficult
journey to reach the more inhabited
parts; so that Herr yon Payer thinks
there is not the least chance of the
adventurers, supposing them to be
alive, being heard of before next au
tumn. Obviously, the route which he
suggests as possible involves many
grave contingencies.!
The evidence, however, in favor of
the supposed path of the balloon is of
the slightest character. . It may not
have taken that return course towar-.l
the southeast, and, in any case, the
Franz Joset group of islands is not so
large- that an unmanageable apparatus
like a- balloon might not- easily miss
them all. If it did, and particularly if
it were-involved in those variable drifts
of which Nansen had experience, it
might float about until from exhaus
tion of its gas it settled down upon the
sea. In this case, we think, the ex
plorer' chance of reaching lan 3.
though they had endeavored' to pro
vide for this contingency, would not be.
worth very much. Even if they have
alighted on firm ground, and have saved
their weapons and a fair supply of amr
munition and without these they
would have little- hope of imitating
iNansen and surviving a winter in. Franz
Josef Land there would still remain
the journey to Siberia. Possibly, how
ever, they would try for Spitzbergen,
as Nansen would have done if he had
not fallen in with the Jackson-Harm's-
worth,' party. But a . second winter.
with the imperfect appliances of xn-
dree's expedition, would be a most for
midable trial, unless they could man
age to reach the horna from which they
started in July, 1897, cr some other
well-provisioned shelter elsewhere.
That they should succeed in this or
fall in with some tribe of Siberian na
tives before the present winter has
fully set in seems the one remaining
hope. At present, no doubt, it would
still be premature to call them lost,
But we are inclined to share IJerr von
Payer's opinion that until some one has
succeeded in constructing . a balloon
which can be steered like a ship the
plan adopted by Andree is about the
most desperate we--had almost said
suicidal method of undertaking polar
exploration yet devised. Cincinnati

LAMPS HELD E1AGNETS.
In Old Conjurer's Trick That la NoiV
JPut to Good Dae In the Ma- -'
chine Shop. ' 'J?
To hold-down to a lecture platform a
ight. ironi object by means of an elec-jro-magnet
underneath, out of sight,
ind thus appear to multiply its weight
nany times over at. will to make it
m possible even to lift the object in,
j u est ion, providing- the magnet be pow
erful enough is an old con jurer's trick
which has served on many occasions to
mystify the public, says Cassier's Maga
zine. Its principle, however, has been ap
plied to several more useful purposes,
and one of these, of recent date, is em
bodied in a magnetic chuck for mis
cellaneous work, for surface grinding,
principally, but adapted also for the
planer or the lathe.
The magnetic effect in this chuck is
produced by an electro current circulat
ing In a coil in the interior of the de
vice, and, as this coil is wound, pref
erably, for '110 volts, the needed cur
rent can be taken from any regular
electric lighting main in or about a
shop. The coBenience of the device,
especially for small work, is obvious.
A magnetic holder for an" electric
incandescent lamp is another electric
shop convenience. The holder is sim
ply a lamp socket containing a small
electric magnet, which will make the
whole contrivance stick to any piece of
iron or steel with which it may be
brought in contact.
The coil through which the magnet
is energized is within the base of the
holder, and the lamp current supply
ing the energy passes through it on its
way to the lamp.
THE PLATFORM WOMAN.
Thla Noted Author Says She Bu Eves
Been a. Blot Upon American
Womanhood.
The platform woman Dever has been
a credit to, but ever a blot upon, Amer
ican womanhood. I make this emphat
ic statement from a personal knowl
edge of the homes which these women
leave behind when they 'go to their
meetings, writes Edward Bok, in La
dies Home Journal. I have seen the
rooms of their homes left in wild dis
order; I have seen their servants sit
ting in idleness with work on every
hand to do; I have seen the children
neglected and left to their own devices;
1 have heard husbands speakin derison
of the motives of their wives. No wom
an in a happy American home can ever
afford to listen to these parasites oi
her sex. Fortunately, the platform
woman's influence is steadily on the
wane. She was never a power. She was
never even picturesque. Her worst in
jury was 'wrought upon certain weak
women who-for the time she deluded.
But even with them' she was soonJlFe
garded with wonder rather than with
interest; with suspicion rather than
with confidence. Less and less has she
been able to get listeners, and it is sig
nificant that in places where the has
spoken during the present season she
has not been seen again. The disap
pearance of the platform woman is a
case of a blot being blotted out.
TOOK HIS WIFE'S ADVICE.
Bat the Ingenious Woman Did Hoi
Know Where a Man Should
Carry Bla Money.
When the man whose haircut showed
that his wife had peculiar notions as to
the way a man should dress his hair
quit giving advice, one of the listeners
said, reports the New York Sun:
"No man has more respect for a wom
an than I have, but I shall never take
the advice of my wife again about
money matters. She insisted upon my
hiding my salary, so if I should be held
up the highwaymen wouldn't get it.'' I
draw my stipend at 6ix p. m., and it is
quite dark before I get home. She is a
good hider in the house, but her talent
in that line stops there. Now, she had
the brilliant idea that I should put the
envelope containing my money under
the sweat band of my hat. Highway
men would never look there, and would
never rob a man of his hat. After she
had made this suggestion about 40
times I accepted it. I went home as
usual on the elevated. I had a slight
attack of vertigo in the ear, and the
man who always knows what to do
said I needed fresh air, add threw up
the window. In doing so he knocked off
. . I went home bareheaded and
