CHICAGO, Feb. 2.—Because of the | bility of eastern roads (o handle all the traffic offered to them western roads have {seued blockade notices that affect several of the necessaries of life. Among the lat- ter is flour, which the western roads will Bot receive for delivery to eastern roads until further notice. The congestion on ea worse than in the west and the blockade | notice which was lssued to agents today by one of the western roads gives a pretty comprebensive idea of the state of affairs.

When a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, becausgits component parts are known to be witolesome and the remedy itself free from every objectiorable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, becanse of its pleasant flavor, its gentleaction and its bencficial effects, is Syrup of Figs—and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers, Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them ouly the simple, pleasant and gentle—Syrup of Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of laxative principles of plants with pieasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which nnscrupulous deal ers sometimes offer to increase their profits. The geauine article may be bought anywhere of all reliable druggists at fifty cents per bottle. Pleas: to remember, the full name of the Company CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO.- is printed on the front of every pack- age. In order to get its beneficial effects it is al- ways necessary to buy the genuine only.
