The better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity, who devote their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance wit scientific formula. ~ Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines. They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances. The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that Syrup of Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package. They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. . Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and tHe immense demand for #, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations sometimes have the name—* Syrup of Figs”—or “Fig Syrup” and of some piratical concern, or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup C should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes off on a customer a preparation under the name of “Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup,” which does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package, he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his and deception in one case he will do o with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every- where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company— California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class ot druggists who willsell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices. physicians’ prescriptions and and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest ther remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as printed on the front of the package.

He was employed in the Austin box factery at the intersection of Fourth and Harrison streets and roomed in a lodging-house at 781 Folsom street, kept by L. Nelson. | Young Niebehr retired at the usual hour last Tuesday night and took with him a paper of candy, a bottle of soda water and a novel. He had disposed of the candy and the soda water, and had evi- | dently fallen asleep while reading, the gas remaining lighted. The odor of illu- minating gas attracted the attention of Night Watchman C. W. Ridgeway at 10:30 o'clock yesterday morning, and, summon- ing help, he broke open the transom, the door being locked. The stopcock on the gas fixture was fully turned on. There are only two theories for the cause of the boy's death, one is that the flame went out of itself, and the other is that the gas was turned off at the meter and turned on again. | Landlord Nelson stated to Deputy Coroner Charles Meechan that it was his habit to go down into the basement cvery other day to “take the meter,” as he de- | sired to know how much gas his room- | ers were using, but he strenuously denied | that he ever turned the supply off at the | meter at any time. He always carried a | | piece of paper and a pencil with him on | | those trips and marked down the state | of the meter, he said. This remarkable story is the only statement that he could | offer regarding the management of the gas supply in his hous The Coroner will make a thorough in- tigation, should the police fail to do and also determine whether Nelson i 0, was in the habit of turning the gas on or off, and also what Nelson expected to gain by “taking the meter” every other day. Young Nlebehr was a good boy agd of industrioys and studious habits. He was reputed to be a son of a Tahitan princess, and was born in Tahiti. | ACCUSED OF ATTEMPTING TO SHANGHAI A SAILOR Marks Weiner and A. Jonanon Are | Arrested for Disturbing the Peace. Marks Weiner, a runner for a sailors’ boarding-house, and A. Jonanon, pro- prietor of a restaurant on Montgomery and Pacific streets, were arrested about | noon yesterday by Policeman Clark and booked at the City Prison on a charge of disturbing the peace. It appears that Weiner met Emil Guz- neck, a sallor, in front of the restaurant, | and, 1t is alleged, struck Guzneck on the head with an iron bar. Jonanon ran to Guzneck’s assistance and there was a three-cornered fight in progress when Po- liceman Clark came upon the scene. Guz- neck was sent to the Harbor Hospital to have a wound on his head stitched and dressed. Jonanon says that Weiner had often approached him to help him in shanghai- ing sailors, offering him $15 for each, and when he saw Weiner assaulting Guzneck he jumped to the conclusion that Weiner Was going to shanghai him and that was why he ran to Guzneck’s assistance. —_———— Chasing a Debtor. The creditots of A. Jacobs of 1123 Broadway, Oakland, having filed a peti- tion in the United States District Court, asking that he be declared an involuntary bankrupt, Deputy United States Marshal R.
