LOS ANGELES January l, 1885.
To the public: l was seriously afflicted
for about ten years with lung, liver and
kidney troubles Tongue could never ex-
press the misery / endured during those
years: 1 was reduced in flesh until was
were badly impaired; was constantly
troubled with constipation and piles, and
had a sewers chronic cough. In short, life
was burden and death would have been
welcome. l was treated by various spec
ialists without avail. finally resolved to
give DR.. Wong Him, of No, 500 Upper Main
street, trial. OF course, like many others,
| had no faith in a Chinese doctor but it
took only. a few doses of his life-givin.s
herbs to knock all the skepticism out OF
me. In just five weeks the doctor pronoun-
ced me cured and now can truthfully say
that L was never healthier and never felt
better in my life. My sight and hearing
are both fully restored: that obnoxious
cough, constipation and piles are entirely
cured, and am rapidly gaining in flesh,
having gained forty pounds in two months.
L earnestly recommend all sufferers ard
skeptics to give the doctor a trial and be
convinced of his superior skill as ply
sician.

XAJith better understanding of the
w transient nature Of the many phys
seal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle effmts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due TO any actual dis
ease, but simply to q constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and Is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact that It is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debititating the
organs on which it acts. Il 81 therefore
all important, in order TO getit bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase. that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and tne system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most slSillful
physicians, but il in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and givesnost general satisfaction.
