In supplying that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of Figs and ' Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Synip | Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies ' on the merits of the laxative for its remark- j able success. That is one of many reasons why j Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given | the preference by the Well-informed. 1 To get its beneficial effects always buy j the genuine — manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by ail leading druggists.

It is almost an assured fact that • every teacher of the school will be ' registered in the summer school this < , year. Two facts contribute largely f to this, first the spirit of progress that ' animates the entire force ; secondly, t ♦he teachers seem to interpret the free , tuition for the New Jersey teachers ' r <0 meaa that the authorities desire < their attendance. »■ A MAY DAY CELEBRATION. , A unique May Day celebration was ^ inaugurated by the ladies of the Epis . 1 copal Church of the Advent of this ' ' place, on Saturday afternoon last.

PENNSYLVANIA l^LROAD: BULLETIN THE SUMMER VACATION GUIDE The summer vacation is the bright spot in the dull routine j of the year's work. It breaks the monotony of the daily round, I and cheers and invigorates for the strenuous life ahead. America abounds with delightful summer resorts in vails®, on | mountain, and beside the sea. The Atlantic coast line from Labroior to Cape Hattsras contains the greatest number of resorts devoted entirely to the pursuit of pleasure and health in the world. One may purchase from Pennsylvania Railroad Ticket Agents j excursion tickets to over eight hundred of these resorts, covering 1 | all the desirable places, from the rock-bound bays of Newfoundland I to the gentle, sandy slopes of the Virginia beaches; from the White Mountains of New Hampshire to the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee; in the wilds of Canada, along the shores of the St. ' Lawrence and the Great Lakes. The famous seacoast resorts of New Jersey — Atlantic City, Cape May, Wildwood, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Asbury Park, Long Branch, Spring Lake, Seaside Park, Beach Haven, and others so well known that description is superfluous — are among the most popular and the most easily accessible resorts in the country.

I THE U. S. GOVERNMENT in its "Pure Food Lzw" does not "indorse" | ■ or "guarantee" any preparation, as some manufacturers in their advertisements would make it appear.
