Eleven | !lawyers testified, and their vgluation of the services varied considerably, | | ranging from $4000 to $25,000. } Judge James M. Allen thought $4000 | ! would be proper and gave his reasons, | specifying the value of the different elements of the services. A.

Aye, and more! Here they learned to weave the cloth that would drape their sinuous bodies, to weave the blankets and linen used in the mis- sion. So, too, they learned to make the altar cloths, drawn in native de- | signs, after the traditions of their peo- ple.

Santa Ynez much resembles Mis- sion San Miguel, save that the belfry is a part of the facade, rising above | the tiled roof with a fine dignity and bearing aleft a large cross, the em- blem of the church. About the fa- cade, outlining the sides and the roof beams, runs a broad dark band of reddish paint, forming the one dis- tinctive Indian decoration on the ex- terior. But within are many carvings of the children of the woods and there, too, remain some of the statues of the old days when the land was young. Founded when the mission system was on the wane, owing to the sap- | ping of its vital forces by the greedy Mexican officials, Santa Ynez was spared much of the tragedy, aye, and | the comedy, of its older sistérs. | Perhaps, should the old church find came neo- a crude | captains | birthday it would tell of the great|ggjq: ‘Attorneys are inclined to place | | earthquake of 1812, when its rafters g very high estimate upon the value of were wrenched and its arches pitched | their “services when rendered in im- | | i | | gave it birth—the Spaniard and the In- | dian. | to. attorneys against dead men's es- ates. t a living voice to-day, on its hundredthl In the Blythe case, Justice Garoutte out of plumb, and the neophytes went ¥ ; < | portant litigation, and also inclined to screaming into the patio calling for - | look with kindly eyes and sympathetic help from the Holy Mother.

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 1rest ko in accordance with physicians’ prescriptions 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 frgm a knowledge of the benefits conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually 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 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 over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its eficcts as Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. S Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisiaction which it gives and the immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to be found, hers 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 te sell the imitations.in order to make a laxger 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 Syrup Co.—printed on the front of the package. The imitations i In order to sell the imitations they find it necessary to resort to misrppre’senhfion 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 entér 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 hysicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness. nowing 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 bettle, but as exceptions e public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return 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 willsell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices. ey ‘are injurious to the system. PROGRESS SLOW"|HARMONY -ENDS BUT DEFINITE| HER LONG REIGN Low Temperature and In- jufy “to Crops Without Much Effect on Business NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—R. G, Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: Industrial and commercial progress is slow, but mpne the less definite. Low temperatures and some injury to crops provide the only adverse iffluences of the week, and this has little effect upon manufacturers and traders, who have | started to prepare for increased busi- ness. Buyers of dry goods, clothing and millinery are notably active in placing orders, and other staple lines also feel the effect of gradually expand- ing confidence. Even if the official erop estimates of September 1 have to be moderately reduced because of bad weather since that date, there is full compensation to growers in the en- hancement of the prices, and the strength of securities indicates the faith of the financial world. Many mills and furnaces have resumed because of new orders or adjustment of wage scales, and pricés are steadier in most cases.

Bradstreet's to-morrow will say: ‘While there are diverse movements in domestic and foreign trade, the ten- dency as a whole is for improvement along conservative lines.

Fourteen stitches were put in his scalp at the Harbor Emer- gency Hospital. —_—— Juries Differ in Verdicts. Thomas J.

A few days ago Edward Weldon was tried on the same charge and the jury's verdict was assault with intent to commit! robbery. Harry Scott, a third de- ) fendant, will be tried on Monday.

Indignation ran so high | yesterday that certain members of tRe | California County Commissioners’ As-| sociation requested President Colvin B. Brown to call a meeting of the organi- zation In order that they might express their sentiment. The result of such meeting probably can be foretold when it is said that among the California ex- hibitors. are twenty-two counties from the northern and central parts of the State to six from the southern district. “The ridiculousness of this statement is attested by the table printed in the report of the California State Board of Trade on the shipment of fruit out of the State by rail in 1904, said one of thg northern district exhibitors yester- day. “This table shows that Northern and Central California shipped 9947.5 cars of green deciduous fruit, as aglinst 126.1 from the southern section; 2246.5 cars of citrus frul against their 27,715.8; 12,859.3 cars of dried fruit, to their 1024.8; 3752.6 cars of raisins, as compared to their 161.1; 365 cars of nuts, as against their 560.9 carloads, and 5793.3 carloads of canned fruits, to their 877.2. “This gives Northern and Central Califqrnia 3964.3 more carloads and 44,- 6429 tons more than the shipments to this we shipped 5060.3 carloads of wine, as compared with their 194.5, and 347.3 carloads of brandy as against their .6 of wine and brandy not segre- gated.
