It Is well known to be a simple combination of the laxative and carminative principles of plants with pleasant, aro matic liquids, which are agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system when Its gentle cleansing is desired. Many of the ills from which women suffer are jf a tran sient nature and do not come from any organic trouble and it Is pleasant to know that they yield so promptly to the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs, but when anything more than a laxative is needed It Is best to consult the family physician and to avoid the old-time cathartics and loudly advertised nostrums of the present day. When one needs only to remove the strain, the torpor, the con gestion, or similar Ills, which attend upon a constipated condition of the system, use the true and gentle remedy Syruo of Figs and enjoy freedom from the depression, the a"ches and pains, colds and headaches, which are due to Inactivity of the bowels. Only those who buy the genuine Syrup of Figs can hope to get Its beneficial effects and as a guarantee of the ex cellence of the remedy the full name of the company . ,.. . , 1 J . I .

To those,,AvA4A:,,,A'i&! who know the quality of this excellent laxative, the" offer of any substitute, when Syrup of Figs is called for, is always resented by a transfer of patronage to some first-class drug establishment, where they do' not recommend, nor sell false brands, nor Imitation . remedies. The genuine article may be bought of all reliable druggists everywhere at 50 cents per bottle. Carter to Meet Sam McVey. Los Angeles, Cal., May 5.

It is Much More E Valuable Now Than When We Placed the First Allotment on the Market Some Two Months Ago. ( HaHH Ba (on3crrntivc an expert or mining engineer lie may be, ,1.1 :ui.. l.i.. i.:. iu : ,i CONSTANT DEVELOPMENT AND RESULTS A crew of men have been constantly nt work ever since we acquired this proportv and the Glasgow crosscut Las now encountered and fully crosscut tbo ledge. In this ciosscut wo havo opened up a body of oro sixteen feet in width carrying good commercial values. In speaking of commercial values we mean ores wMch have a sufficient value to pay for the extraction nulling and all other incidental expenses thereto, with enough of a margin left over to pay good dividends to the stockholders. This largo body of ore was not in the nature of a surprise, we simply expected it, as the surface develop inf nts showed this same large body of ore, and there was no reason why it should not be encountered in this cross cut and at this depth. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT We are now turning to drift on the ledge to the west from the crosscut in order that wo may open up the richer ties at a greater depth which are found on the surface throughout the Bannoekburn claim. This lino of development, wo believe, will prove verv interesting to all who tin.- interested, or may become ntrr cttod in the Highland mine, ns it will certainly open up ore bodies rich in quality and in large quantities. It will demonstrate that the Ilighlaud will rank us one nf the largest producers in the district. From now on the development work will In- com paratively easy and not very expensive, as we will be drifting along the ledge where the ground is much rasier to work than in tho country rock which encases the vein. Every month will show a lurpe increase in our ore reserve.?. FREE TRIP TO THE HIGHLAND To any one who wishes to invent a reasonable sum of money in the Highland mine, we will puy all traveling expenses to and from the mine for the purple of his making a personal examination.

In offering to pay your expenses out here and back we feel that we are not running any risk whatsoever as wo know jwsitively that no one, no matter how great r - o D could possibly, roughly speaking, "turn it down POOL YOUR INTERESTS If you have not sufficient money yourself to justifv Mm in coming to the Highland to look it over before in ve. ting, we would suggest that you and your friends make up a small pool and send one of your number out here to look over the Highland.
