ADVERTISEMENTS. HicH CLASS DRUGGISTS AND — OTHERS. 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 with physicians’ preseriptions and 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 conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usnally their greatest 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 They Agree to Stand To- gether Against Demands of Certain Unions. iR ormer Husband's Threats‘ Add Zest to the Arctic Romance.

DR. PIERCE’S REMEDIES. | To take cold. It's so common to neglect the cold. That is one reason why there are so many people with “deep-seated,” | stubborn coughs, and so many more with | “lung trouble.” The short, quick way to cure a cough is to use Dr, Pierce's Golden Medical Dis- covery. The quicker this remedy is used the quicker the cure. But even when neglect has let disease fasten on the lungs, “Golden Medical po may be relied on to cure in ninety- eight cases out of every hundred. The only motive for substitution is to permit the dealer to make the little extra profit paid on the sale less meritorious medi- cines. He gains. You lose.

Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the immense demand for it, 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. 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 Co.—printed on the front of the package. should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes off on a customer a preparation upder 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 establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of physicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness. 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 exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return 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 of druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices.

AN ATTENTIVE WOOER. The young gentleman, according to Mrs. Plerson, has been noticeably attentive to her daughter, a fact that has not pleased the mother, and she has not hesitated to so express herself in the presence of the voung lady. As is often the case, the mother’s chidings only tended to increase the daughter's what little attention Cowan may nave shown toward her and the result was a | spirited debate between parent and chila as to the propriety of these girlish acts. At any rate, so the mother said yester-| day, during the midst of her anxiety over her daughter’s unexplained absence, Cowan continued to show every possible | consideration for the coming queen, and on Tuesday evening formed one of a_the- ater party of six that included Miss Pier- Mrs. Pierson says that when she learned that her daughter had accom- paried Cowan to the theater without in- viting her mother again remonstrated with her, but son. with apparently no better resuits than on pre 18 occasions. Yesterday morning mother and daugh- vi | ter proceeded with their shopping and finally reached a prominent shoe store on Market street, where, while Mrs. Pierson vas engaged in making a purchase for self, she suddenly missed her daugh- X 'hat had become of the latter the combined efforts of the mother and the clerks of the store were unable to deter- mine, and finally, after vainly searching the streets and the various stores In which they had previously been, Mrs. Pierson hurried back to the Palace, hop- ing that her daughter had returned to their apartments in advance. But this hope was soon dashed asunder, for no trace of the daughter could be found there, By this time Mrs. Plerson was greatly excited and to this fact Is now | attributed her later susplicions, which led her to lay her troubles before the police. In Jonse to a telephone call Detec- tive Tom Gibson visited Mrs. Plerson at the Palace, and from her learned that she was satisfled that her daughter had eloped with Cowan. “There is always a reason for a girl acting in this way,” ar- gued the anxious mother. “I have feared something like this, and T am satisfied that Susie and Cowan have foolishly gone off and got married.” SLEUTHS NONPLUSSED. Of course, the detective, after listening to the mother's story, could not help but accept her theory and he started out to work on it with the vim of a schoolboy earning his first vacation money. He placed himself in telephonic communica- tion with the County Clerk’s office, and then with the offices of the Clerks of the neighboring counties, with a view of learning whether or not a marriage li- cense had been issued to Cowan and Miss Pierson. Finding that there had not, the detective began to work out other the- ories, and in these he was assisted by other members of the police force. Cow- an could not be found, and this fact strengthened the suspicions advanced by Mrs. Pierson. Certainly it was beginning to develop into quite an interesting mys- tery and the detectives were employing the most hervic methods known to hawk- shaws to unravel the affair, when their gravest expectations were suddenly ex- ploded. About T o'clock Mrs. Pierson telephoned to police headquarters that her daughter had returned to the hotel. Just what kind of a scene attended the home coming of the daughter probably. will never be known, for Mrs. Pierson refused to be seen again, and during the evening was closely locked In her apartments with her daughter. To the police the mother said her daughter had explained that she had tired of shopping and returned in the forenoon to the hotel. Failing to find her mother in, she again went out, but re- turned several times during the after- noon, only to discover that her mother ‘was still absent. As to Cowan, it is supposed that he lived through the day in pleasant ignor- ance of the search that was going on about him and of the aspersions that had been cast upon his seemingly well mean- | ing intentions toward the queen of Sacra- mento’s street festival.

SANTA CLARA, May 6.—Burglars broke into a show window of a local shoe store last night in a peculiar manner, get- ting away with ten or twelve pairs of shoes. Their method was to plaster the window with adobe mud to the thickness | of an inch or more and then hurl against it a rock wrapped in cloth. Because of these precautions no sound wis heard by the occupants of the second floor of the building. Constable Daniel A. Cooney this even- ing captured In a grain field near the rall- way station a man believed to have had some connection with the robbery—or, perhaps, with more mportant crimes. He gave Walter Price as his name and said that he was 28 years old and hailed from San Francisco. A search of Price brought forth two burglar's Jjimmies, a pair of rubber shoes and a revolver, from which | the maker's name had been filed. Believing that the fellow may be wanted in San Francisco or some other coast city, Constable Cooney has prepared a minute description of him. He is a blonde, five feet six or seven Inches in height and clean shaven. He wears a light check coat and walstcoat, striped trousers, a light shirt, celluloid collar and red tle, lace shoes and a light brown Fedora hat The maker’s labels have been cut from all | of the clothing.
