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 of 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- gestidn, or similar ills, which attend upon_a constipated condition of the system, use the true and gentle reme: Syrup of Figs—and enjoy freedom from the depression, the aches and pains, colds and headaches, which are due to inactivity of the bowels. Onlythose 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— California Fig Syrup Co.—is printed on the front of every package and without it any preparation offered as Syrup of Figs is fraudulent and should be declined. To those..: who know the quality of this excellent laxative, the™ offer of any substitute, when Syrup of Figs is called fog, 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. w | FRUIT COMPANY’'S .GENT | Van Wyck Brush Shoots Himself in gent of the ENDS LIFE WITH A BULLET a Winters Hotel and Leaves No Explanation.

One day his companionss were missing. Bird claimed they had gone off prospect- ing. Officers recovered their bodies, rid- and circgmstantial resulted over | money matters and a woman who had | gone north with Bird. A remarkable feature of the case has | been the heroic and persistent effort of Mrs. Bird and her young daughter to save their husband and father. After the first conviction the wife and daughfer granted. At the second trial in Juneau the jury again returned a verdict of mur- der in the first degree. Mrs. Bird still sessed in a vain effort to secure a par- don, reprieve, commutation to life im- prisonment, anything but the awful hor- ror of death on the gallows. With her daughter she returned to New Orieans, aroused people there to sign peti- tions for executive clemency and had Benators and Representatives intercede at Washington in her behalf. At Wash- ington day after day Mrs. Bird and her daughter shadowed the White House, seeking a chance to appeal to President Roosevelt for their loved one. After closely examining the evidence President Roosevelt felt that he could not inter- fere, and in a most humane manner com- municated his decision to the heart- broken wife. She returned to New Or- leans. Copyright, 0::. Earony, lh- York City, N. Y. Superintendent Boyd Is Acquitted. HONOLULU, March 6.—The trial of for- mer Superintendent of Public Works J. H.
