In season, and in moderation, is al eX-

trouble is, it cannot be obtained when
needed, but Hamburg Figs, the vege-
table fruit Cathartic, may always be
found at your druggists. Hamburg
Figs do their work thoroughly, and
without fuss; they cause 10 pain or
weakness, and are everything that a
mild laxative and purgatiye should be.
Besides this, they are so pleasant to
take that children even eat them as
eagerly as candy. Iney are so safe
that an overdose need cause no uneasi-
