Gladness Comes

MIith better understanding Of the
w transient nature of the many phys
teal ills, which vanish before properef-
forts-gentlc efforts-pleasante 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
'tiou of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup Of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why II ic the only
remedy with millionsof families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it's the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene'
fetal effects, TO note when you pprr'
chase, that you have the genuine artl'
Gle, which is manufactured by the CAN
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold BY
all reputable druggists. =,
If In the enjoyment of good health,
and the system Is regular, laxatiyes or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease. one
may be commended to the most skiliiui
physicians, but II in need of d laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
