DID YOUR CHILD WAKE UP CROSS OR FEVERISH!

Look, Mother! If Tongue is Coated, give California Syrup of Figs to Clean the Bowels. Mother! Tour chiW isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if the tonguo is coated; this is a sure sign that its little stomach, liver and bowels need attention at once.

When listless, pale, feverish, "stuffy" with cold, throat soro; when the child has tainted breath and doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, or has stomach ache or diarrhoea, remomber, a gontlo liver and bowel cleansing should always be tho first treatment given. Nothing equals California Syrup of Figs—'.Califig,' for children's ills; give a teaspoonful, and in a few hours all tho waste-matter, sour bile and fermenting food clogged in the bowels pass out of the system, and you have a healthy and playful child again. .All'children love tills harmless and delicious fruit laxative, and it neyor fails to effect a good "inside" cleansing. Directions for babies, children of all ages and grownups aro plainly on the bottle. Keep it handy in your home. A littlo given to-day saves a sick child to-mor-row, but get tho genuine. Ask your chemist for a bottle of 'Colin;;' —California Syrup of Kgs, then look and see that it is made by tho California Fig Syrup Company. Imitations aro sometimes substituted. All chemists sell 'Califig'—California Syrup of Figs, in bottles of two sizes, 3/1J and 1/9.
