ing her children "California Syrup of
Figs.’’ that this is their ideal laxative,
because they love its pleasant taste
and it thoroughly cleanses the tender
little stomach, liver and bowels with-
out griping.
When cross, irritable, feverish or
breath is bad, stomach sour, look at
tin* tongue, mother! If coated, give
a teaspoonful -of this harmless "fruit
laxatlxe,” and in a few hours all the
foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of the bow-
els. and you have a well, playful child
again. When its little system Is full
of cold, throat sore, has stomach-
tore, diarrhoea, indigestion, colic—
remember. a good "Inside cleansing
hovll alwavs be the first treatment
•Ivon
Millions of mothers keep “Califor-
nia Syrup of Figs” handy: they know
a teaspoonful today saves a sick child

bottle of "California Syrup of Figs,”
which lias directions for babies, chil-
dren of all aces and grown-ups print-
ed on the bottle Beware of coun-
terfeits sold here, so don’t be fooled
Get the genuine, made bv "California
