Gladness Comes

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle eefforts--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 constipated condi-
tion 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 debilitating the
organs ON which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its 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 the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
