With a better understanding of the
transient na tpre of the many phys-
ical ills which vanish before proper ef-
forts gentle efforts pfeasant efforts
rightly directed There fa comfort in
the knowledge that so maiiy forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis-
ease but simply to a constipa teiTcondi
tionof the systeni which the pleiisant
family laxative Syrup of Figs prompt-
ly removes Thai is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families and is
everywhere esteemed bo highly by all
who value good health Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact that ftis the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs On which it acts It is therefore
all important in order to get its bene-
ficial effects to note when you pur-
chase that you have the genuine arti-
cle which is manufactured by the Cali-
fornia Fig Syrup Co only and sold by
VU reputable druggists
If in the enjoyment of good health
Jand the system is regular laxatives or
ther remedies are then not needed If
afflicted with any actual disease one
may be commended to the most bkillful
physicians but if in need of a laxative
one should have the best and with the
wellinformed everywhere Sjrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction
