A CHILD'S LAXATIVE IS "CALIFORNIA SYRUP OF FIGS." THEY LOVE TO TAKE IT, AND IT DOESN'T HARM THE TENDER LITTLE STOMACH, LIVER AND BOWELS. If your little one's tongue is coated, it is a sure sign that the stomach, liver and bowels need a gentle, thorough cleansing at once. When your child is cross, peevish, listless, pale, or doesn't sleep, eat or act naturally ; if breath is bad, stomach out of order, system "stuffy " with a cold, throat sore, or if feverish, give a teaspoonful of " California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the clogged-up constipated waste-matter, sour bile and undigested food will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a healthy, playful child again. Sick children needn't be coaxed to take this harmless "fruit laxative." Millions of mothers keep it handy because they know that its action on the stomach, liver and bowels is prompt and sure. They also know that a little given to-day saves the child a day of illness to-morrow. Ask your chemist for a bottle of " California Syrup of Figs," which contains directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold here. Get the genuine, made by "California Fig Syrup Company," and sold by all leading chemists, 1/lJ and 1/9. Refuse substitutes. "KIDNEY~and BLADDER TROUBLES " I could not stoop to do my household work." Completely cured by Two Bottles of DR. SHELDON'S GIN PILLS " Fon years I have been suffering from diseased kidneys and bladder troubles, leaving a very weak and bad back, so bad that I could not stoop to do any household work," writes Mrs. F. Hall, 18 Regent Street, Dunedin, N.Z. " The pain at times was so extremely painful that I can only describe it as a stab in the back. My rest at night was broken, and I was ill and miserable. I tried all remedies recommended to me by my friends, and all the remedies I saw advertised in the papers, but got little or no relief from any of them ; and I was beginning to think there was no cure for me at all and that my trouble would become chronic, until I saw when passing a chemist's window Dr. Sheldon's Gin Pills. Being a new remedy, which 1 then saw for tho first time, I thought I would try them, though with little hope or belief that they would do me any good ; but I am very pleased to state that they are a most wonderful medicine, for after taking only a few doses I felt a great improvement. The pains were less severe, and by the time I had taken two bottles of Gin Pills I was completely cured, and I am now in perfect health, thanks to Dr. Sheldon's Gin Pills, which any sufferer like myself should always have in the house." Backache and Kidney Trouble are only too prevalent nowadays, and to successfully cure them it is necessary to use a special remedy designed particularly for this trouble. Such a remedy is Dr. Sheldon's Gin Pills, which have attracted so much attention on account of their having relieved and cured so many cases of this kind.
