MOTHER, YOUR CHILD NEEDS A LAXATIVE! If Tongue 5* Coaled, Stomach Sick, or the Child i* Cross, Feverish, Constipated, give “ California Syrup of Figs.’ 1 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 breaih, a cold, or a sore throat; if the child does not eat, sleep or act naturally, or has stomachache, indigestion or diarr h oea, give a teaspoonful of California -Syrup ofFigs * Califig,’ and in a few hours all the waste matter, bile and fermenting food will pass out of the bowels, and 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 ‘ Califig,’ —California Syrup of Figs, which has directions for babies, children of all ages, 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/lfc and 1/9.
