Wilson regret that she was unable to
come as she is undoubtedly a great
wonder and would probably have had
good houses each night. We hope
she may decide to come later.
Excursions are the order of the
day now We may expect to hear
ot several more from different points
in this section. With the thermome
ter at ioo- in the shade, the mere
mention of a trip to the sea shore
puts one in the notion of braving the
trip in crowded cars to have one
whiff of the refreshing sea breeze and
a plunge in the surf.
On Thursday next there will b3
some good racing at the track near
town. Several horses have been en
teredsome with great speed.Tn addi

in the county The managers will

know a good thing when they see it
and are taking advantage of the lux
ury of having a phone by sending in
their names. Wilson is to be con
gratulated oh having such a good
system, and excellent manager.

Several cars passed through Mon
day laden with people on their way
to Rich m ond. One was decorated
with evergreens and had a large sign
on the side of the car marked "Camp

ans on their way to the reunion where

some of their old comrades, who

Gladness Comes
With a better understanding- of. the'
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef
forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts
rightly directed, xnere is comiori iu
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, syrup oi v lgs, prompt
lv removes.1 That is why it is the only
j-emedv with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so nigniy uy an
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which! promotes internal t
cieanimesjs witiiouu ucuunatiug
organs on which it acts.' It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine arti
cle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists. . ;
' If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with ' any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
