1 An Excellent'Combination. The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the ' well known remedy. Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., iiistrate the value of obtaining' the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting1 them in the form most refreshing-to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening' laxa tive, cleansing1 the system effectually, dispelling1 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 acting1 on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening1 or irritating1 them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing1 figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other 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. CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.

A Malne-BnUt Snip Earns 100,000 Gross Receipts In Flfteesi Months. We find in the Lewiston Journal of the 15th inst. "the record of a Maine- built ship," which is very pleasant read ing, for, it furnishes conclusive proof that shipbuilding1 in the United States is a profitable industry under judi- pcious management. . This ship is called the Dirigo, and appears to be worthy of her proud name. She was- built, the Journal says, by the Sewalls, at Bath, and is the largest steel , ship afloat bearing1 the stars and stripes. It is probable that no steamship in the freight, business exclusively has earned so much money in a year as this sailing vessel ha placed to the credit cf her owners. The record published in the Journal shows that the Dirigo left New York for Shanghai on. January 9 last with a cargo of general merchandise, which brought in a gross amount of $35,350 After discharging1 at Shanghai shecame across the l'acihc in ballast to Fuget sound and immediately picked up a coal freight for San Francisco; which added $11,000 more to her receipts. Coal freights paid so well then that the ship made two voyages in the trade. She has just been chartered to load wheaton the Puget sound at 33 shil lings 9' pence. She can carry 4,700 tons of cargo, and at this rate the gross receipts for the voyage to- Europe will be $38,070. She is a fast boat, but if she could make only an averatre voy age she will reach Liverpool by April, so that her gross receipts for 15 months'. work will amount to nearly $100,000, about one-half of which will be profit. Our Lewiston contemporary finds in these figures an ample exposition- of the reason why Arthur Sewall, "the Bath shipbuilder and the owner of the Dingo, goes right along1 building- sail ing snips, while less enterprising- cap italists have bewailed their decadence and bought lots in Lonesomeville at two per. cent."
