5-YEAR MEETING OP FRIENDS CLOSED Subscribe $7,258 for Establishment of New Publication Office Here.

In response to the call for funds to establish a central publishing house and an official organ of the church with headquarters at Richmond, delegates to the Five Year meeting of Friends at Indianapolis yesterday obtained $7,258 in pledges and cash. The convention closed yesterday. For the salary of the general secretary created by this meeting, $1,000 a year for five years was subscribed and as a guarantee fund to make up any possible deficits in the expense of running the church paper, pledges were received for $1,714 to run for three years, after which period, it is supposed, the paper will be self-sustaining. Of this sum $250 was pledged by one man and is to be paid when the publication is started. A cash contribution of $15 was received for the department of evangelism and church extension.

A navy officer who had been reading the testimony and who had been on duty at the navy recruiting bureau in this city, has made a calculation to show : that the bluejacket of the navy earns a higher rate of pay than does the railroad man. I From this calculation he finds that the average railroad man averages $640 a year. "It may be a matter of surprise to many," this officer said, "to be told that the average pay of the American bluejacket Is better than that of the railroad man. But it is no less true. The average bluejacket, not the picked man, nor the man of the special class, but the bluejacket and the recruit who has just

A general secretary and all assistants necessary will be put in charge of the central office. The meeting voted to pay the office expenses out of the funds of the five years meeting. The establishment of the general office comes as a result of a pressing demand from the delegates that something be done to co-ordinate the different activities and to centralize the executive authority of the church boards and commisajons. The secretary is to direct his first work in th$ home mission and church extension fields. An executive board was provided for on recommendation of the business, committee to consist of the cierk of the five years' meeting, and the chairman of the following boards and committees: Evangelistic and church extension, foreign missions, education, legislation and temperance, social

The young people of the church who have been a problem for the Friends in the past were provided for when the meeting voted to establish a board of young Friends activities, including the Christian Endeavor and other young people's societies. This board will seek to interest. the young people in church work. It will consist of one member from each yearly meeting and one additional member for each eight thousand members or major fraction of that number.

HEADftGHY, CONSTIPATED, BILIOUS, ME DELIMIT SYRUP OF FIGS." Removes the scum from the tongue, sweetens a sour, gassy, bilious stomach; cleanses your liver and 30 feet of bowels without gripe or nausea.

If headachy, bilious, dizzy, tongue coated, stomach sour and full of gas, you belch undigested food and feel sick nnd miserable, it means that your liver Is choked with sour bile and your thirty feet of bowels are clogged with effete waste matter not properly carried off. Constipation is worse than most folks believe. It means that this waste matter in the thirty feet of bowels decays into poisons, gasses and acids and that these poisons are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which should suck only nourishment to sustain the body. Most people dread physic. They think of castor oil, salts and cathartic pills. They shrink from the after effects so they postpone the dose v.ntil they get Bick; then they do this liver and bowel cleansing in a heroic way they have a bowel- washday

That is all wrong. If you will take a teaspoonful of delicious Syrup of Fig3 tonight, you will never realize you have taken anything untif morning, when all the poisonous matter, sour bile and ologged up waste will be moved on and out of your system, thoroughly but gently no griping no nausea no weakness. Taking Syrup of Figs is a real pleasure. Don't think wou are drugging yourself; it is composed entirely of luscious figs, senna and xomatics, and constant use cannot cause injury. Ask your druggist for "Syrup of Figa and Elixir of Senna," and look for the name, California Fig Syrup Company, on the label. This is the genuine old reliable. Any other Fig Syrup offered as "just as good" should be refused with contempt. Don't be imposed upon.

My, What a Difference!

Between the Old Way and the New, of cleaning house! Not only in the ease but in the result. The old broom kicked up the dust but didn't clean. The Dust simply floated in the air awhile, then settled right back on to the floor, the furniture, into your hair, into your; nose, throat and lungs. The tops of the doors and such places were seldom clean. Even scrubbing was not real cleaning, and dusting was nearly as bad as sweeping. The New-Way is so much easier and so much better. Just push an O-Cedar Polish Mop over the floor. That's all there is to it. The floor is hygienically clean. Not a mere soap and water clean, but really clean, and polished too. No dust, for the Mop absorbed all that. You don't wear a dust cap or old clothes when you clean the O-Cedar Polish Way. Sold Only by JONES HARDWARE CO.
