Ihe Seventh company boys have had the hand organized for some time and bad all the necessary in struments except n bass drum. In this dire dilemma the officers and men turned to their mid tried and true friend, the mayor, to help them out. For some time Mayor Gates has been trying to raise money to buy the Seventh company "a bass drum. He also tried to have the drum of the lute defunct band of Medford, which is lying- in storage, sent to the com pany. All his efforts were in vain. He worked at the job so hard that he' contracted a severe attack of drum ilis, which did not end until Thurs day, when he, in a pnroxysin of the disease, sat down and wrote Captain Vance to go ahead find order a brand new drum from any old place, us lie would see that it was paid for.

LOOK AT A CHILD'S TONGUE WHEN CROSS, FEVERISH AND SICK Take no chances! Move poisons from liver nod Isiwels at once. Mothers can rest easy after giving "California Syrup of Figs," because in a few hours all tho clogged-up waste, sour bile and fermenting food gently moves out. of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, and they become tightly packed, liver gets sluggish and stomach dlsordeded. When cross, feverish, restless, see If tongue is coated, then give this de licious "fruit laxative." Children love It, and it can not cause injury. No difference what ails your little one if full of cold, or a sore throat, diarrhoea, stomach-ache, bad breath, remember, a gentle "inside cleansing" should always bo the first treatment given. Full directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups are printed on each bottle. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your drugist for a DO-cent bot tle ot "California Syrup of Figs," then look carefully and see that it is made by tho "California Fig Syrup Company." We make no smaller size.

Hut up to tho present tlmo this one thing is certain, the Victrola taken as the lateijt of what it stands for, what It embodies, what It makes possible and wligtt Is actually performs, is the most wonderful, the most enjoyable and the most useful musical Instrument of which the world has ever had any knowledge. With the improved sound amplifying sur faces and all moving parts .completely concealed In an artistic cabinet. It appeals to the music lovers who havo heretofore de nied themselves the pleasure of having a Victrola simply be cause of their fancied objections to tho prominence of the horn. The Victrola possesses all the accomplishments of the famous Victor and like the -Victor, is plays itself, nothing being loft, to uncertain skill or (aste,; therefore an artistic performance is always a certainty. Other instruments, perfect of their kind, ennnot escape from their limitations. The flute is not a violin any more than a plona is a voice, but the Victrola embodies them all. Why not allow us to placo ono of theso Victrolas in your home on tho easy payment plan and you can enjoy music while you are paying for it. The prices range from $ 1 7.50 up to $2".0.00. Your money's worth or your money back, is an ab solute guarantee of quality. Remember, do not be misled; there is only ono Victrola. Vose, flush & Gerts, Laffargne and other pianos.
