An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method aud 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 ami presenting1
them in the form most rof resiling" to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches end fevers
gently yet promptly nmi enabling one
to overcome habitual co'-.tipation per
manent'. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable cuiility and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or 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
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fio Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid i mi tut ions, please
remember the fxill name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

the complications I suffered terribly from con

began to improve right away, and continued
improving and gaining in strength. I cannot
express the relief, it was so great. Seven

out much trouble. I feel that I would never

by the help due solely to Dr. Pierce's medicines.
She was a fine healthy child and the only one 1

medicine since, so I feel that your medicine has
made a lasting cure with me."

An Appeal from Benton
County.
The proposed toll on the Albany bridge
is a mstter of eerinut concern to the peo
pie living on the Bemon county side ol
the river. We are so situated that the
bridge is to us a necessity. Many of us
are almost obliged to cross it nearly
every day, and some timii two or three
times. If we can't gst yearly rates that
are not burdensome, we shall be obliged
ts elay at home from church and other
meetings that wejwould like to attend.
Before the bridge was built, jiuch of
our land that ia now under a high state
of cultivation was covered with timber,
and the roads in the winter time were al
most impassable. TtuB land has been
Bold to fruit growers, gardeners, and
small farmers at a much higher price
than would hve been paid bad the pur
cheBers known that a ioll would be pit
on the bridge The forests have been
cleared out, and by contributing, Borne
years as much as two or three weekB at
volunteer road work.our roa.ls have been
graveled and made good throughout the
year. Ihe future ol tbis country looked
bright until tbis bride quUion came up.
Already the inevitable results ot a toll
are plainly to be seen. Usually a great
deal ot wood is cue during the winter,
but this year, so far as the writer knows,
no wood is being cut. Houses go begging
tor tenants, and land ia rapidly depre
ciating in value.
We think we are entitled to some fa
Tors from some source. We are heavily
taxed bv Benton countr. and receive no
lavors in return, as our trade all goes to
Albany, we would gladlj be annexed
to Linn county if it could be done. If
Albany now requires us to pay a toll
every time we go for our mail we shall
feel that we are being badlv used.
We are willing, though, to pay our just
share tcward keeping up the brldue if
the counties won't do it. II the com
mittee in makiug out a schedule tf tolls
will allow ones who wish to take out a
yearly license for the use ol tbe brijge at
a reasonable rate, we will not complain.
It is said that those who subscribed tc
the building of the bridge will be given
f lasses, but many of those l.ave sold their
and for a big price,while some paid only
a small amount, and they will no doubt
demaud their passes tie eame a a ones
who paid hundreds of dollors. Let their
subscriptions be applied on paying their
yearly license. Othor towns are expect
ing to capture most of the trade from
this side when vou commence collecting
tolls; but if Albany will deal justly with
us they will not get much ol It.

A city minister was recentl) handed a
notice to be read from bis pulpit. Ac
companying it was a clipping from a
nowspaper baaiing upon t'le matter. The
clergyman started to read tbe extract and
found that it began: "Take Eeuip's
Balsam, the best Uough Cure." This was
hardly what to had expected and, after a
moment's hesitat'on.he turned it oi6r,and
fonud on the other side the matter il tend
