Wf>e I General Demand 1 of the Well- Informed of the World has I always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxatire remedy of known f value; a laxative which physicians could I sanction for family use because its 00mfpoaent parts are known to them to be f Wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, c 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 8yrup [' Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies I on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. That is one of many reasons why B Byrup of Figs apd Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine — manufactured by the California Fig 8yrup Co., only, and for sale by %11 leading druggists.

The first silver wedding dates back fio tte time of Hugues Capet The servants, aays Home Chat, belonging to blm had grown gray In his service, a gnan and a woman, and what could he do as a reward? Calling the woman, be Bahl: "Tour service is great greater than toe man's, whose service Is great enough, for the woman always finds work harder than a man. and therefore I will give ,you a reward. At your •ge I know of none bet tee than a. dowry and a husband. The dowry Is here —this farm from this time forth .belongs to you. If this man. who' has worked with you five and twenty , years. Is willing to marry you, then the husband Is ready." "Tour majesty," said the old peas-' ent, "how la It possible that we should marry, having already silver hairs?" Then It shall be a silver wedding." !And the king gave the couple silver enough to keep them In plenty. This soon became known all over France and raised such enthusiasm that „ It became a fashion after twemy-five years of married life to celebrate a sil- - rer wedding.

kAAiAUMHIAIilittAilHi/ 3 AN EPISODE Of THE J FRENCH REVOLUTION. \ i [Original. 1 j It was during the reign of terror that j relieved France of her king and queen and many pf her nobility that a small ^ wedding party assembled in a chateau hear a town on the banks of the Loire. ' The young Marquis Jean de Lefevre 1 was about to marry Artoise Blnolnette, the daughter or a nel^bortng noble. - The two had grown up together, and j their passage from a childish compan- , lonshlp to a youthful love had been so gradual that they did not recognise ' the latter when it came till they were - about to be separated. Jean was only nineteen and Artinse only sixteen, and , no thought of marriage had come to x either till it became evident that toe young man must cross the border If he would escape the general massacre of nobles then setting in. Then he discovered that he could not bear to , leave Artinse behind him, pAd Artinse ( discovered that she could not bear to be left behind. The countess, Jean's mother, pleaded with him to fly at ones ' but he resolutely refused to go unless r be might take Artinse with him. And > so a hasty wedding was arranged between these two young people, both of whom were still In their teens. The ceremony had been performed and the pair pronounced -man and wife ' when a dosen or more citizens sp peered at the' door, sad, poshing their way in, one of them laid his hand on the groom's shoulder, saying: "Cltlsen Lefevre, you are wanted by the committee of safety." Alas, the departure had been delay- ] ed too long! The groom was torn fnm ' his bride and carried away to the Jail to which common malefactors had been imprisoned, but which was now turned Into a political Jail. For a time Artinse gave way to hysterical shrieks, then quieted down, and at last began o concentrate her faculties upon some method of freeing bet The prospect of the guillotine. 1 instead of paralyzing her. sharpened wits, serving as a goad to an inventive faculty which had hitherto li.j e dormant, but which now showed Itself t to be remarkable. She planned an es- 1 cape for her lover, and planned it her- 6 self without suggestions from others. having once conceived it. she se- 7 lected a few confederates to assist her carrying It out Once every day she was admitted to " prison where her husband was con8he was not allowed to see him alone, but to talk to him through the F steel bars that separated his cell from s the corridor. On the third day she went on her dally visit ready to communicate to him her plan, the principal part ^ of which fell to him. But how was she j do this, a guard standing watching her slightest motion and listening to every word? 8he had provided a way. and on Its success depended the whole matter of his escape.

J Having been taken to bis cell, the two - stood on each side of the bars talking. ? Artinse gave her lover a look to warn _ him that he was to expect something. 5 When the time allotted for the visit 1- had passed she put up her mouth for a if kiss. The kiss was a long one. and dor- "| lng the period their lips were together Artinse contrived to push with her ^ tongue a little pellet Into her husband's j mouth. Then when she saw that she had succeeded she withdrew. '■ This beginning, without which the d escape was Impossible, thrilled Artinse n with hope, and she went home In a r tremor of excitement. Still, there was f much to be done, many ways by which oven the attempt might be frustrated, then the guillotine. As soon as the marquis was alone he took the pellet from his month and found the outside to be of wax. Pull- • lng off the wax. he came to a ball of • tissue paper. Carefully unrolling It so that he should not tear It, he spread It out and saw that It was covered with written words: ? Be on the watch at li midnight. A rope wll! be thrown over the roof so aa ? to hang In front of your window. Seize It and pull It up. Tou will secure a bundle of keeper's olotbes. a file and n rope. Cut out window bara. put on suit, let rouraelf down by the rope, the rest as - best you can. We will have team ready . on the bridge half mile down river from 13 till 2 a. m. each night till you are ready Jean's cell was on the third, or top, story of the Jail. Below and some ' twenty feet from the building was the wall. Soon after 12 that night, while : listening at his window, be beard some1 thing strike the roof. The effort was 1 doubtless a failure. He waited for an- ] other effort, but beard nothing. Thrustlug his arm out between the bara, bs grasped a string. This be drew up and took in the articles mentioned with which to effect his escape. The suit he concealed under his mattress. He worked all the time he was unobserved, filling up the gaps filed with the Mack bread given him to eat, and on toe second night was ready for escape. Potting on the suit and attach- — lng the rope to the window bars he had not filed, he let himself down and walked to the gateway. There stood a sleepy guard, whom he ordered to open the gate, saying a prisoner was 111 and he must go for a doctor. The guard obeyed, and the marquis walked away, j At the place appointed he found a -carriage waiting. Opening the door. ' he stepped t^aud was clasped In the ! . arms of his wife. The young couple were driven rapid j ly for the rest of the night and as soon 1 as It came light left their carriage aud : proceeded on foot, cpdtriving to ex : mange fine clothes for peasants' cos- ; fumes. In this way they succeeded in ; reaching the border, which they crossed 1 aafely. Once in a foreign land they knelt end gave thanks that the bus life had been saved. ! ADELAIDE RUTH niLL
