these qualities are combined is

Where to Buy,
Why just come right into my store
and you will be gladly served. Mv
short profits and quick cash sales have
gladdened the hearts and brightened
the homes of many buyers and have
stimulated and enabled me to press
onward buying and selling. Frostv
mornings and biting winds may soon
be coming, but each week fresh goods
will be arriving according to demands,
so that the comforts of life may be had
at most reasonable prices and in ac
eordance with the customers' strictest
views to economy. The pleasing
prospects for a coming administration
of prosperity will not cloche and feed
the homefolks this fall. The cotton
and other crops will not be plenteous,
yet there will be opportunity for par
ents to teach more thoroughly habits
of industry and economy, and I will
have the opportunity of demonstrating
to my customers that -a friend in
need is a friend indeed.” Mv rem
nant stock of shoes and otbei goods
brought over will be offered at half
price. When I bid you goodby I will
. expect you to come again for the sale
will be of mutual benefit.

to about §2O, were given to finish pay

having labored very successfully to
advance the school in every possible
way.

accepted by the well informed.

Gladness Comes
With a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts—
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness arc not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle. which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
tnay be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
»-2d and gives most general satisfaction.
