| Mother! ^ j
j Child Gets Sick, Cross, Feverish
if Constipated
Mother! Your child isn’t
naturally cross and peevish.
See if tongue is coated; this is
a sure sign the little stomach,
liver and bowels need a cleans-
ing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish,
full of cold, breatch bad,
throat sore, doesn’t eat, sleep
or act naturally, has stomach-
ache, diarrhea, remember, n
gentle liver anil bowel cleans-!
ing should always be the first1
treatment given.
Nothing equals "California
Fig Syrup” for children’s ills;
give a tea-spoonful, and in a
few hours all the foul waste,
sour bile and fermentingl food
which is clogged in the bowels
passes out of the system, and
you have a well and playful
child again. All children love
this harmless, delicious, “fpiity
laxative,” and it never fails to
effect a good "inside cleans-
ing.” Directions for babies,
children of all ages and grown-
ups are plainly on the bottle.
Keep it handy in your home.
A little given today saves a
sick child tomorrow, but get
the genuine. Ask your drug-
gist for a bottle of “California
Fig Syrup,” then see that it is
made bv “The California Fig
Syrup Company.”

OBITUARY
In loving remembrance of
J. T. Fail.
Bro. Fail was born in Ala-
bama, April 16, 1856; died
July 2, 1927.
He was married to Miss Sal-
lie Thurman, February 14,

11 children, of which nine are
living, 6 boys and 3 girls.
Bro. Kail joined Antioch

He was a good citizen, a

him was to love him.
Will say to the bereaved
companion, weep not, for his
labors are over here on earth,
he has gone to rest to wait for
the morn of the resurrection.
May the blessings of God be
with thee and children.
