burg County Town Destroyed With ;
Heavy Loss Saturday A. M.

time seemed destined to wipe out the:
business portion of this city, was dis
covered at about, 10 o'clock Friday
flight, in the grocery store of A. K.
Burrkhalter.
The volunteer fire department re
sponded promptly to the call with the
hand engine, and before long a great
number of people were on the scene.
The store was} of wood and the fire
spread rapidly through It, rendering
Ihe work of the fire engine of little
use. The millinery store of Miss Car
lie A. Cave, next door, caught and
burned, and the brick building, with
C. N.f Buckhalter's drug store and a
number of attorneys’ offices, nlso
burned. The stores of Deasou & Co.
caught several times, but. was extin
guished.
The proprietors will, however, lose
heavily, as their goods were greatly
damaged by moving them out.
The losses, while not figured out!
individually, will amount to between
fifteen and twenty thousand dollars.,
There was some Insurance.

The Win Stroke
*
If more than ordinary skill in playing brings the honors of the
game to the winning playor, so exceptional merit in a remedy
ensures the commendation of the well informed, and as a rea
sonable amount of outdoor life and recreation is conducive to
the health and strength, so does a perfect laxative tend to one's
improvement in cases of constipation, biliousness, headaches,
etc. It is all important, however, in selecting a laxative, to
choose ono of known quality and excellence, like the ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig
Syrup Co., a laxative which sweetens and cleanses the system
effectually, when a laxative is needed, without any unpleasant
after effects, as it acts naturally and gently on the internal
organs, simply assisting nature when nature needs assistance,
without griping, irritating or debilitating the internal organs in
any way, as it contains nothing of an objectionable or injurious
nature. As the plants which aro combined with the figs in
the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to
act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met
with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact woll
worth considering in making purchases.
It is because of the fact that SYRUP OP FIGS
is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by
physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well
informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain
quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a
bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a
laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the
genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size
only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the
company —California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on
the front of every package. Regular price, 50c per bottle. I
