INDULGENT

Good Rubber In Mexico.
Experiments made with the native
rubber tree in Mexico have demon
strated conclusively that the cultiva
tion of the castilloaelastica is feasible
and that, after the seventh or eighth
year, a quantity of rubber sufficient
to make the investment profitable may
be extracted annually. Each acre of
the ground available in Mexico for the
purpose can accommodate about 200
trees. Each tree should yield from
one to two pouuds of rubber an
nually, with a value of sixty to seventy
cents a pound, United States cur
rency. The cost of gathering and preparing
the rubber is small, and, with freight
charges, amounts to so slight a pro
portion that an average profit of fifty
cents a pound may be relied upon.
Therefore, the net annual returns to
the planter should be between $100
and $200 an acre each year. The trees
continue to grow larger, increasing
the amount of their product each year.
It is estimated that on a plantation in
Mexico fifteen years old each tree
should yield an average of five pounds
of rubber.
The only objection planters can find
against entering the rubber-growing
industry is the long time they must
ttait after planting before they can
realize any returns. While it is true
that it involves much patients wait
ing, it is considered the safest of crops,
with practically no risk of loss. The
prices quoted are top figures in the
markets of the world.
With such opportunities as Mexico
offers there is little danger of the rub
ber supply failing behind the demand
in the near fntnre, as has been sug
gested by some of the larger dealers.

The Handicap of Drink.
A representative of The New York Voice
asked ot several business men, well known
and highly esteemed in New York com
mercial elroles, their views upon the use
of liquor by business men and their em
ployes. The answers given by nil of them
showed marked hostility to drinking habits,
and many ot them remarked upon the
change that has come to pass In the busi
ness world In this respect within the last
few years. The old custom of treating,
that used to play so large a part lu the
transaction of large wholesale deals with
out-of-town oustomers, they all agreed hai
largely disappeared.
Among the men with whom Tim New
fork Voloe representative talked was Henry
Clews, one of the most widely known finan
cial operators in the oity. Mr. Clews said:
"Drinking dwarfs men's abilities, makes
il'em erratic, and Interferes with good
Judgment. It makes them see things with
a distorted mental vision and leads them in
todisastrous enterprises. Competition Is so
keen to-day that a man must keep his head
cool end his judgment unimpaired in order
to protect bis own and his customers' In
terest". Driuk makes a man see either the
brightest or the gloomiest si Jo ot things,
which lo dangerous. On the Stock Ex
change to-day a man who drinks habit
ually Is apt to be avoided, where a fen
years ago the fault was overlooked. Busi
ness to-da7 is conduoted on a different
basis from that of twenty years back. It
was then thought that if a man was con
vivial and made friends, business would be
Induced; and some of the houses in the
"Street" used to have "drinking" part
ners" to take customers out and treat
them; but such a thing is not known any
more. It is no longer necessary for a
broker to open wine for his customers; in
tact, suoh a course is to-day regarded with
lusptclon. Men are apt to think less of a
man for putting temptation in their wav."
Mr. Clews, who is familiar with the social
Justom of the best families of tlio city,
also expressed his opinion that the con
sumption of liquor in the homes ot wealth
has very materially diminished; and also
that "bar drinking" in Wall street has
within the last fifteen years decreased not
less than fifty per eent.
The subject was also brought up In con
versation with Mr. Chester 8. Lord, who
has for eighteen years been the managing
editor of the New York Sun. Mr. Lord de
cidedly believes that a newspaper man in
these days of intense competition oan not
lucceed If be allows his powers to be im
paired by the use of liquor. With regard
to the condition of affairs in the office oi
Ibe Sun, be said:
"Intemperance will not be tolornted in
Ibis office on the part of anybody. The
Dnly men whom I have been compelled to
let go during the last three or four years
owe their dlsmi-sal to intemperance."
President John ClaAin, of the great
wholesale bouse of H. B. Clullia Company,
ipeaklug ot drinking among employes,
inld:
"We can not afford to keep a man who
irlnks habitually no matter how good a
nlosman he may be. There is a marked
cbnngo for the better in this respect
throughout the entire business section ot
New York, and I think throughout thi
eountry. Competition is so active that
svery concern must be on the alert for
trade, and intemperance on the part o'
talesmen will not be put up with."
Horrors In a Casual Paragraph,
A casual paragraph in a daily newspaper
reads: In a recent treatise on alcoholism
by Trull It is stated that in England seventy-five
per cent, of all cases of pauperism
are due to drink, and in Germany ninetv
per cent. In Germany drink leads to 1600
oases ot suicide a year, and supplies the
lunatic asylums with 3000 victims.

effected at Lloyd's by Frenchmen at

might in snob, a case be done to their
buildings. Such an nnderwriting
contract would be nnenforceable at
law, but the Frenchmen who paid
their insurance felt certain that the
British underwriters would not take
advantage of any legal point, but
would pay np as, of course, they
would have done. Aftor all, this lit

WITH a better understanding of the transient nature of the many physical Ills which vanish before proper
efforts gentle efforts pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort In the knowledge that so many
forms of Illness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which
the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, promptfy removes. That Is why It Is the only remedy with millions
of families, and is everywhere esteemed so htirhly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to
the fact that It Is the only remedy which promises Internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which
It acts. It Is, therefore, all-important. In order to get Its beneficial effects, to note when you purchase that you
have the genuine article, which Is manufactured by the California Pig Syrup Co. only. .u,uju,
Of the art of advertising Is to correctly Inform the public of the merits of
always prove most effective In time. The valuable reputation acquired by
the California Fig Byrup Co. by reason of the excellence of the pleasant
laxative remedy. Syrup of Flirs, which It manufactures, confirms the state
ment, which the company freely makes, that the best of remedies only
should be used when needed by the hum.-in system. The more one takes
of salts and pills the more constipated the system becomes, while on the
other hand one enjoys , both the method and the results when Syrup of
FUrs Is taken; It is pleasant and refreshing: to the taste, and acts gently
yet promptly on the kidneys, liver and bowels, cleenses the system effec
tually, dispels colds, headaches and fevers and overcomes habitual consti
pation permanently; also biliousness and the many ills resulting therefrom.
The great trouble with all other purgatives and sperlents Is not that they
fall to act when u single dose is fatten, but that they act too violently and
Invariably tend to produce a habit of body requiring constantly augmented
dopes. Children enjoy the pleasant taste and gentle action of Syrup of
Figs, the ladles find It delightful and beneficial whenever a laxaAlvt remedy
is needed, and business men pronounce It Invaluable, as It may be taken
without interfering with business and does not gripe nor nauseate.
THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
Is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which It Is manufactured by scientific procesees
known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and therefore we wish to im

Endurance of Arabian Porters.
Arab carriers bear great loads npon
their backs and go at a trotting pace
from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. During the
month of Bamadan the Korau forbids
the taking of food between suurise
and sunset, and this law is said to be
held sacred and rarely violated. Not
only do these porters continue their
arduous physioal exertion during the
twelve laboring bourn of the day
without taking any food during that
period, but the Frenoh inspectors who
are in charge of the gangs told our in
formant that they could work better
during the month of the fast than at
any other time of the year, because
their energy was not needed for
digestion. At eventide these Arabs
have a moderate meal ot wheatmeal
porridge, mixed with large proportions
of butter (it is to be had cheap) or
olive oil. Their expenditure for food
is not more than bix or seven cents a
day, and the only luxury which they
permit themselves is a cup of very
strong black coffee and a cigarette.
