THE AUGUSTA HERALD FRENCH PEOPLE RACE SUiCIDERS 1 PARIS. —France is marching with quickened step 10 her doom, says M. de Kovllle, member of the French fn wtitute and president of the Acad emledes Seiences Morales et Pollti gues in a statistical review whirl# proves that France as a nation is -lowly but surely dying. In 100 years the birth rate has fallen from 32 per 1.000 to 10.7, and at the present mo ment, for the first time in history, and in France alone among nations, the deaths exceed the births. Since lie twentieth centui'V began the de cline has continued at the following darmlrig rate: Excess of births over b aths, 1902, 84,000; 1903,73,000; 1904, 7,000; 1905, 37.000 1906, 27,- t bast year aero was reached ::d passed—there were 20.000 ore deaths than births. The offlhlal returns 794.000 and 774,000 under lhege respective heads. The word ‘‘depopulation,’' M. de Foville points out, is therefore no exaggera tion. Is It, lie asks, the beginning of the end? At this rate France will oon lie ripe for invasion. It is the orliy fate awaiting a country capable >f supporting eighty million inhabi acts, but containing only half that number. In 1875 the population of Germany urpassed that of France by 6,000,- "'I. It now exceeds it by more than 0,000,000. In another 20 years there ■vi 11 be two Germans to each French ‘an without counting the sons of the "jtherland scattered all over the lobe by emigration.

The purest wat'- on the market, at 4c per gallon, d livered Interstate Ice and Fuel Co is lax in regard to certain criminal practices, it. has made divorce ridict. lously easy, and it winks at pernio: ous teachings. The burden of taxa lion is only one of many other ex planations suggested and In this con nection it is pointed out that recent, legislation has imposed increasingly harder conditions on the bread-winner with a family to support. The new income tax. for instance, makes no distinction between the bachelor and the married man with numerous chil dren. Nothing in short is being done to stop the gradual extinction of a great race. The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World ha: always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could •auction 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 Klixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup t'o. proceeds along ethical lines and relies 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 cectt per bottle.

Let Kodol Digest what you eat. Then you can Eat what you like. You once could eat anything you wanted, and your stomach would digest It But now there’s some things which your stomach won't digest. Your stomach absolutely refuses to accommodate you when you eat certain food —so you have been forced by your stomach to eat food which you detested, and pass up those delicacies that you would have really enjoyed. There Is a way now to eat any thing you like, if you will let Ko dol digest It. Kodol will do this, too. It won't talk back or command, but will go right ahead with its work and di gest all the food you eat. Kodol will let you eat anything you like and all you want, and you won't suffer with that dull feeling, that fullness, and wish you hadn’t eaten so much You will not have that heart-burn, which Is so annoying at times, if you will let Kodol digest your food a while. You don’t have to use Kodol long —only for a little while —Just long enough for your stomach to rest a little. It gets tired sometimes, too—just the same as anybody or !
