An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Strup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Cos., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fig Syrup
Cos. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

THE LADY CT IIIE TIGER.
She Had a Number of Good Reasons
For Not Marrying:.
One would scarcely go to the moun
tains of West Virginia to find even ro
much &a a semblance to the 6tory of
‘‘The Lady or the Tiger,” but I came ,
very nearly doing it on one occasion. I t
had been invited, largely as a recogni
tion of my position ns the representa
tive of the biggest timber firm in the
section, to ntteud a mountain dance,
and I was there having as good a time
as a man can have who doesn’t dance,
even the old-fashioned quadrille and
that kind.
At the moment in question I was
“sitting out a dance” with the prettiest
mountain girl of the whole neighbor- |
hood, and I was mildly jollying her ;
about not being married. She was 24,
which is old mnldhood in the moun
tains, except in the ease of very pretty
girls, of whom there are very few
among the mountaineers.
“I could marry ef I wanted to, I
reckon,” she said, with a shake of her
head.
“Y'es, there’s Jim Mullins. He wants
you. Why don’t you marry him?” I
asked with a little more directness
than might haw characterized my ut
terances in a more conventional at
mosphere.
“Huh!” she s’nlffed, “.Thu’s red head
ed and frecklier'n a turkey alg.”
“John Morgan Isn’t. What's the mat
ter with John? I’m sure he would
have you quick enougfi if he could get
you.”
“You’re . foolin’, colonel,” she said,
blushlug a little. “Anyhow, I don’t
want John. He walks bias like ez ef
he was cross-eyed in the feet.”
“Well, there’s Sam Hodgkin. Sam’a
a good fellow and would make a good
husband.”
“P'raps he would fer some other
lady, but not fer me. Sam’s ugly
enough to make a mule bray. I’ve
seed him do it by jist lookin’ over the
fence.”
“How’s the school teacher? He isn’t
so bad looking, is he?”
“What, that long, ganglin’. whopper
jawed thing? Why, I wouldn’t marry
him If he was the last man on earth.”
Finding it rather difficult to satisfy
this fastidious mountain maid from
the selections I was making, I became
a trifle more personal.
“Well,” I said with some effusion,
“since none of these will suit you, how
do you think I would answer?”
“Goodness sakes, colonel,” she ex
claimed with all the naivette of nature,
“ef I married as nice a lookin’ man ez
you air. leavin’ all of them others liv
in’ round here handy, I’d be a wldder
afore three months, shore.”
It wns a compliment that I could not
do otherwise than recognize, and at
the same time It wnA very embarrass
ing, and I don't know what would
have happened if It had not been for
the opportune arrival of her partner
for the next dance.—Washington Star.
What Made Him Tired.
The other day, toward the close of a
long sitting in the Assize Courts, when
another case was culled on the leading
counsel rose and huskily requested
that the case might be postponed till
the next morning.
“On what ground?” asked the judge,
snappishly.
“Me Lud, I have been arguing a case
all day in Court B and am completely
exhausted.”
“Very well,” said the Judge; “we’ll
take the next.”
Another counsel nrose and also
pleaded for adjournment.
“What, are you exhausted, too?” In
quired the judge, with a snap of the
eyelids. “What have you been doing?”
“Me Lud,” said the barrister, in a
wearied voice. “I have been listening
1 .0 my learned brother.” —Tit-Bits.
Astonished.
“In Europe,” remarked the Indignant
immigrant, “such a thing as a bath
tub is unknown in the bouses of the
poor.”
The indignant native stood aghast.
“Why, where then, do they keep
their coal in winter?” lie demanded,
Incredulously.
“The fact is, necessity has made
those foreigners more adroit in man
agement than we are.”
