The Children Enjoy
Life out of doors and out of the games which they plav and the eniovment
which they receive and the efforts which they make, comes the greater part of that
healthful development which is so essential to their happiness when grown. When
a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and
strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as phvsicians would
sanction, because its component parts are known to he wholesome and the remedy
itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and
parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enioy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is Svrup
of Figs and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by
fathers and mothers.
Syrup of Figs is the only remedv which acts eentlv. pleasantlv and naturallv
without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the rv stem effectually,
without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old
time cathartics and modem imitations, and against which the children should be so
carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happv, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not
needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only
the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs.
Its quality is due not onlv to the excellence of the combination of the laxative
principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our
onginal method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do
not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to
increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. is printed on the front ol every package. In
order to pet its beneficial
effects it is alwavs neces
sary to buy the grnuine
only. For sale by *11 re
liable druggists.
BR4DV MISREPRESENT
ING AL.4SK4 AGAIN
(Continued from Fage I.]
Urady's stupidity to carry him so fir
in the effort to misrepreaent * oountry
from which he bopei to make money
ust (or the purpose of justifying in the
minds of torn* uninformed neightx>rs an
inglorious public record.
Let us look a; the real facls. l*et u?
consider a moment how liars can rigure.
In the first place the l??t census
(fives Massachusetts a population of
!<Q5,34ti in?teiul of the 6,tWT,3<?0 quoted.
The vote ol Massachusetts at ibe
national election of 1900 was 414, SOI.
Got. Brady place the number of legal
Toten at 1.34S..W. The actual ratio be
tween voters and population was 6.76
and Dot 4.45.
In the second place he gives as the
total vote of Alaska the partial returns
from the disttict that were available a
few days after the election. He knew
that to be true because he got his fig
ures from the papers which said so. He
deliberately misrepresented the facts.
The total vote is about 30CK' greater
than the figures quote.1.
In the third place Gov. Hrady knows
that the vote cast in Alaska at the last
election was not a full vote and that the
ratio should be much larger thin il is
at an election where their are nation
al. state, county, mun cipal, district
and precinct officers to elect For
instance. Juneau cast 330 votes at the
delegate e'ect ion and 550 at the prevt.
out municipal election. Skagway cast
IS!' at the delegate election and 315 at
the municii ai election. Treadwell cast
fewer than 100 vote* though there are
1200 at work at the Treadwell mine;
a recent republican primary there
showed 900 vote* polled lV>uglas rast
less than 200 vote*, and a recent census
showed the town to have a population
of nearh 2.000. Ketchikan cast less
200 vote, and the population of the
town *>as Jetei mined by the court to
be more than 1.000. Wrangell cast 3i>
votes: it 's an incorporated town claim
ing * population of ,|00. Sitka cast
about 50 votes and claims a population
of manv hundreds. And sj it was
throughout the district Only one Incor
porated town in it cast as many ?otes
as il did at the rocent soring elections.
People from Fairbanks say that the
vote of the Tanana fell from 25 to .13
percent , s lort of the full vote. That Is
the answer to the base and oowardly
insinuation that there wav illegal vot
ing.
The actuary ol the United States
treasury department estimates toe
population of .Masks at R3.000. This
mtimate Is based upon actual statistics,
including the foodstufTi consumed, the
clothing worn, etc., atjd s compar
ison of them with the same
statistics for 1900 when the census
showed 30,000 whit* people In Alaska.
