Delicately formed and gently reared, women will find,In all the seasons of their lives, as maidens,wives,or moth¬ers, that the one simple, wholesome remedy whfch acts

gently and pleasantly and naturally, and which may beused with truly beneficial effects, under any conditions,when the system needs a laxative, Is.Syrup of Figs. ItIs well known to bo a simple combination of the laxativeähd carminative principles of plants with pleasant, aro¬

matic liquids, which are agreeable and refreshing to thetaste and acceptable to the system when Its gentlecleansing is desired.

Many of the Ills from which women süffer. are of a tran¬sient naturo and do not come from any organic troubleand It Is pleasant to know that they yield so promptly tothe beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs, but when'anythlngmore than a laxative Is. needed It Is best to consult thofamily physician and to avoid the old-time cathartics andloudly advertised nostrums of the present day. Whenone needs only to remove the strain, the torpor, the con¬

gestion, or similar Ills/which attend upon a constipatedcondition of tho system, use the true and gentle remedy.Syrup of Figs.and enjoy freedom from the depression,the aches and pains, colds and headaches, which are dueto Inactivity of the bowels.

Only those who buy the genuine Syrup of Figs can hopeto get its beneficial effects and as a,guarantee of the ex¬cellence of the remedy the full name of the company.California Fig Syrup Co..is printed on the front of everypackage and without It any preparation offered as Syrup "

of Figs is fraudulent and should be declined, To those,;·who know the quality of this excellent laxative, fhe,roffer of 'any substitute, when Syrup of Figs Is calledfor, Is always resented by a transfer of patronage to.some first-class drug establishment, where they do'-not recommend, nor sell false brands, nor Imitation ·-

remedies.. The genuine article may be bought of allreliable 'druggists everywhere( at 50 cents per bottle,

THE PUBLIC WILLBE INTERESTED

Will Want to See Who Votesfor Campbell.

It Is a notlceablo fact that the denomi¬national weeklies of tho' city have hadpractically nothing to say .copeernlng theCampbell investigation by the Legislature.A week ago tho Bellglous Herald made a

guarded and conservative comment andthis week It does the same thing again.It says:"The Committee for Courts of Justice

of tho Virginia House of Delegates intheir conduct of the Campbell cuse cer¬

tainly guarded the rights of the accusedJudge with utmost care and conscientious¬ness. Indeed, so scrupulous and cautiouswere they to protect him in his legalrights and privileges that many supposedtho commlLtee would report In favor ^tacquittal. But the committee was com¬

posed of honorable and faithful inen,and they could hot agree that .the mnndescribed In the testimony submitted tothem was lit for Judicial position and re¬

sponsibility, and so they reported unani¬mously In favor of removal. The factthat some reached this conclusion by one

route and some by another strengthensthe case against Judge Campbell. Nowthere is talk of a. hot fight In tho Houseand tho Senate. Naturally the public willbe Interested in observing who of our leg¬islators believe that the Amherst Judgemust be 'vindicated.' "

THE INTERRUPTIONSOF THE TELEPHONE

THpï Central Presbyterian thinks thetelephone, so far as this minister Is con¬

cerned, Is a divided Joy."Tho interruptions of the telephone,"

it says this/ week, "are becoming a, so-rJous .matter to tho 'minister In hisstudy. Interruption Is bad enough inany thoughtful reading, but It is quito)dlstractlvo when the pen is In motion.Can you not wait until you catch yourpastor about his dinner hour? It Issugges/ted that tho minister have his'phono hour/ when ho can talk to his

people freely and hold a 'news levee.'Certainly tho tolophono Ih working some

great changes In our' Ilvos. It widensour opportunities bf Intercourse andmultiplies Ufo, gavine time andstrength."
