MOTHER, YOUR CHILD NEEDS A LAXATIVE !

If Tongue is Coated, Stomach Sick, or the Child Is Cross, Feverish, Constipated, give California Syrup of Figs.

Don't scold your fretful, peevish child. See if the tongue is coated; this is a sure sign that the little stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with bile and imperfectly digested food. When listless, pale, feverish, with tainted breath, a cold, or a sore throat; if the child does not eat, sleep, or act naturally, or has stomach-ache, indigestion or diarrhoea, give a teaspoonful of California Syrup of Figs—"Calilig," and in a few hoars all the waste matter, bile and fermenting food will pass out of the bowels, and you have a healthy, playful child again. Children love this harmless, fruit laxative, and mothers can rest easy after giving it, because it never fails to make their little "insides" sweet and wholesome. Keep it handy, mother! A little given to-day saves a sick child to-morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your chemist for a bottle of "Calilig"—California Syrup of Figs, which has directions for babies, children of all ageß, and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle. Remember, imitations are sometimes substituted, so look and see that your bottle bears the name of the California Fig Syrup Company. Hand back with contempt any other fig syrup. All chemists sell "Califig"—California Syrup of Figs, in bottles of two 'sizes, 1/3 and 2/. — (Ad.)
