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 component parts are known to them to be wholesome arid truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. That is one of many reason? why Syrup of Fis and Flixir of Senna is given
the preference by the U ell-Iniorrned. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

A COMMON MISTAKE Many women mistake kidney and bladder troubles for some irregularity peculiar to the sex. Foley's Kidney Itemedy corrects irregularities and makes women well. Miss Carrie Harden, Bowling Green, Ky., writes: "I suffered much pain from kidney and bladder trouble until I started to use Foley's Kidney Remedy. The first bottle gave me great relief, and after taking the second bottle, I was entirely well." A. G. Luken & Co.
DEATH WAS ON HIS HEELS. Jesse P. Morris of Skippers, Va., had a close call in the spring of 1906. He says: "An attack of pneumonia left me so weak and with such a fearful cough that my friends declared consumption had me, and death was on my heels. Then I was persuaded to try Dr. King's New Discovery. It helped me immediate',, and after taking two and a half bottles I was a well man again. I found out that New Dis covery is the best remedy for coughs and lung disease in all the world." Sold under guarantee at. A. G. Luken & Co's drug store. -r0c and $1.00. Trial bottle free.

Convict Street Cleaners. Public streets in the towns of Java are daily swept and kept clean by native convicts.

A Couple of Bo's'n's Chairs, a Trio of L Shaped Iron Pegs, a Heavy Hammer and a Ball of Twine Will Take Him In Safety to th Summit. In the climbing and repair of chimneys and steeples it is, as in so many of the upward steps of life, undoubtedly the first which counts, says the New York Times. Once set your man, with a ball of twine tucked in the pocket of his coat, safely astride the coping of the big brewery chimney which rears its bulk of brickwork perhaps 300 feet above surrouading roofs or on the apex of the steeple of a church, his arm around the weather vane's vibrating pole, and you have the means by which ropes, ladders, scaffolding and all the necessary structure for examination and repairs
may be brought into place. To get the first man to the giddy summit that is the question. There was a day when this was not infrequently accomplished by what at first sight might appear the somewhat frivolous method of kiteflying. A kite having a goodly length of string attached to its tail was raised in the usual manner and gradually coaxed over the steeple or chimney under treatment, then drawn down until the tail string lay across the top. It was then merely a matter of time and patience to pass a rope over "td haul up a man. 'But the method had obvious disadvantages. To draw the tail line successfully across a chimney top, still more across the pointed spire of a church, often took more than one or two attempts. Moreover, there must be a fair wind blowing nt the time and a large open space available close by in which to raise the kite this last condition one not ofteu found about
tne enrmney stacks or steeples of a
town. Another system was that of ladders built upward from the steeple's base, exceedingly cumbrous and, in the opinion of many modern steeplejacks, highly dangerous. The man who on this morning stands beside us at the foot of a great shaft of brickwork towering skyward from the very center of a famous northern town will fly no kite, nor does a wagon load of sectional ladders wait his orders In the yard. A small man. sinewy and lean faced, is he, and all the tackle that he needs to take him safely to the coping sixty yards above our heads has traveled to the scene of action in his pockets or his hands. On the grouud before him are two bo's'n's chairs, or short planks, through holes at either end of which a rope is passed, forming a loop by which the chair may hang. Beside them lie three L shaped iron pegs or staples. The longer arm of each peg has a sharply poiuted end and is nearly a foot in length; the short arm is but two or three inches long. The handle of a heavy hammer peeps from the pocket of our companion's coat, and that is all. Taking a staple in his hand, he drives it into the chimney at a point breast high above the ground. On this he bangs a cnair and, mounting, drives a second peg two or three feet above the first. On this the second chair is hung. The upright arm at a right angle to the peg precludes all danger of the rope slipping off. Nor do the chairs hang close against the shaft, for strips of wood projecting from each end insure a space in which the climber's legs are free to move. Now, stepping up into the second chair the steeplejack drives the last of his three pegs. Above him is a peg. below another one, on which hangs a chair. Leaning aside and down, he lifts this chair and hangs It
above him on the topmost peg; leans down and with a twist of his fork headed hammer wrenches out the peg This is less dangerous or difficult than might at first be supposed, for the pegs are never driven deeply in. having but the steeplejack's light weight to bear, and that only for a few minutes at a time, while should the hammer or a peg slip from his hand it Is easily recovered by means of the ball of twine in his coat pocket and the watcher below. Such is the system the mere mechanical repetition of the movements Just described which has carried him safely to the top of many a giant stack Arrived at the summit of the chimney he will find holdfasts built into the ma sonry sometimes a massive bar or chain is stretched across the shaft to which a rope and pulley blocks caD be made fast. This done, he can descend and reascend at will, scaffolding can be slung and inspection and repairs be carried out.
