The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its ex cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relics on the merits of the laxative for its remark able success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine—manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. Notice to Contractors.

Washington, L C.—President Tait sent to congress a message urging the passage of an amend ment to the tariff b’.'l, imposing a tax of 2 per cent on the un distributed net earnings of corpo ations and the adoption of a res olution submitting to the several states sn amendment to the con stitution giving congress the pow er to impose a tax on incomes. In order that there should be no question that the two propo sitions recommended have the support of the administration. At torney General Wiekersham draft ed both the amendments and the resolution. The corporation tax amendment was referred to the committee on finance, and that oi the resolution submitting the question of amending the consti tution went to the committee on judiciary. In view of the emphatic stand taken by President Taft against a direct tax upon incomes, in the face of the decision of the supreme court of the United States on that subject and his preference for the proposed tax on the earnings of corporations, a number of the progressive re publicans have signified their in tentions of following his recom mendations. At the same time not all of the progressive repub licans are satisfied with this ad ministration program. Democrat ic senators denounced the tax on corporations as a substitute for direct tax on incomes. Not only is the president favor able to an amendment providing for a tax on the net earnings of corporations because of the add ed revenue it would produce, but much' tnore so on account of the fact that he believes it would bring about a helpful and health} degree of publicity, relative to the affairs of the corporations. This, he believes, would be a re form which would produce great satisfaction to the people at large and at the same time give the corporations a standing which otherwise it would be impossible for them to attain. This benefit to the corpora tions, it is argued, would arise from the fact that it would in a way stamp upon them the ap proval of the national govern ment and sentimentally, if not legally, supply the federal in dorsement, which it is believed would not only increase their credit with domestic investors hut with the owners of foreign cap ital. The president is said to be convinced that the amendment will give the government offi cials access to the books of all corporations, and thus l publicity will be assured. Such legisla tion would mean a supervision which, it is contended, would be helpful to the corporations and satisfying to the general public. It is believed that this publici ty would prevent what is consid ered to be one of the evils of the day, in that it would eliminate the possibility of concealed equi ties, and, in the language of one of the president’s advisors, “do away with corporation melon cutting” and insure the respon sibility for corporation manage ment to the stockholders. It is understood to be the pres ident’s opinion that a provision for the imposition of such a tax can be framed on the basis of the internal revenue law, giving the government full power to inves tigate books of corporations for the purpose of determining their earnings. He also believes that such a provision could be drawn so as to be held by the supreme court to be constitutional. The president recommended that the tariff should be unlimit ed as to time, as this feature is considered essential to the success of the proposed law in insuring publicity, which has come to be considered as of sufficient impor tance to dwarf even the jx-venue producing element of the amend ment.

All Druggists M Life or the Farm Ihe following dainty excerpt from the Sylvania Telephone was written by one who evidently knows whereof he speaks, who is something of a i.met, and who be gan life on a farm: “If you like music and pretty pictures you can have them at ytuir will by gel ting up early on the farm aid listening to the song of the birds and all the signs and sounds of nature’s resurrection. You can hear the chickens, the cows and the hogs and the neigh ing horses as the farmer comes with their feed. You can hear the voices at the lot, as the boys or the hired hands draw water for the stock and make ready for the day Then as the first long gol den lance of light strikes down across the silent fields you can sei all (he life and bustle of another opening day. And all of it is sweet, and bringeth peace and joy —as we find out sometimes when' we have left it and pine for it again.” The pity of it is that one does not realize to the full the joys an'd poetry of this period of life until it is disassociated from the attendant hardships and one look back upon it in fancy recalling tin youthful zest and relish of exist ance which could no more re turn to the “days that are no more.” “Heaven lies about us in our infancy,” says Wadsworth and the boy on the farm is too close to nature, too much a part and parcel of all that is about him to consciously appreciate the poetry of existence while living it Life on the farm, aside from its poetic side is a hard one, but it lays the foundation deep and wide for an enduring manhood whether engaged in the practical ities or the academic spheres ol activity.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER’S CASTORI A GOVERNOR SMITH AGAINST ISSUE OF BONDS. Atlanta, Ga.—Relative to the prompt payment of teachers in the common schools of the state it is believed Governor Smith will in his parting message to the gen era! assembly, take a position similar to that advanced by Com troller General William A. Wright, that a bond issue should not be authorized to meet cur rent expenses of the state. In stead, he will recommend, it is stated, that the power of the gov ernor to negotiate temporary loans be increased from $200,000 to $600,000 annually. He advane ed this proposition last year. Governor Smith, it is under stood, considers that the teach ers’ pay and pensions are current expenses and are entitled tc equal consideration. If this the ory were followed, there would be no difficulties in handling the state’s finances. But if the poli cy of prepaying pensions is ad hered to, then, the governor be lieves the legislature should au thorize the chief executive to ne gotiate a temporary loan of S6OO, 000 annually, instead of $200,000 as now. He could then meet the pensions in advance and pay thi teachers’ claims as they mature. The governor holds to the be lief that, if the proposition were for the state to make a perma nent investment, then a bond is sue would be justified, but where money is to be paid hack during the yeair, a temporary loan would serve the purpose and would be the proper way of handling the situation. A bond issue for current expenses, he suggests might bring only temporary re lief, and at a subsequent date the state might again be forced to countenance another issue ol bonds to meet current expenses. With proper care, such as Iras been exercised during the past two years, in pushing the state’s claims for taxes, etc., it is be lieved future administrations should have no trouble in meetin; current expenses without the nee essity of a bond issue, it the pow er to make temporary loans is in creased.

No city in the world offers more curiosities for sightseers than Lon don, though Ihe places of greatest interest ail 1 miles apart, such r.s St. ' Paul’s cathedral and Westminster abbey, the Guildhall and the par liament buildings. The British museum is in that part of the capital known ns Bloomsbury, which at one time was the abode of the elite, but now is the boarding house 'district. This institution is really tho center of artistic interest, for it contains one of the richest and most costly col lections in tho world. It is not generally known fhfll the institution owes its existence to a lottery. Tho famous Sloane collect ion, worth $ 1.,000,000, was of fered to the British government for SIOO,OOO in 1753, and parliament voted that the sum should be raised by n lottery, under the auspices ol tho archbishop of Canterbury, the lord chancellor and the speaker of commons. This was done and the required amount raised. Three oth er costly collections were obtained and transferred to the Montagne palace in I’loomsbury, which at that, time was situated on the outskirts of London. Public interest, had been aroused, and from that time on patriotic Britons have emptied their priceless relics into the insti tution. The British museum has the largest library in the world. It re quires forty-five miles of shelving to house its books, ami there is an annual increase of 100,000 vol umes. The library has a Chinese ency clopedia consisting of 5,Q00 vol umes and an endless amount of val uable manuscripts. In 1907, when for the first time in fifty-two years there was a general housecleaning in the palace, it took just six months to do it, at a cost of $lO,- 000.—Cincinnati Enquirer.
