It must be apparent to every one that
qualities of the highest order are neces-
sary to enable the best Of the products of
modern commerce to attain permanently
to universal acceptance. However loudly
heralded, they may not hope for worldwide
prominence unless they meet with the
general approval, not of individuals only,
but Of the many who have the happy
faculty of selecting, enjoying and learn
ing the real worth of the choicest prod
ucts. Their commentator. consequently,
becomes important to others, since to
meet the requirements OF the well in
formed of all countries the method Of
manufacture must be OF the most per-
feet order and the combina ton the most
excellent of its kind. The above is true
not of food products only, but is espe-
cially applicable to medicinal agents and
after nearly a quarter of century OF
growth and general use the excellent
remedy Syrup of Figs, is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family Iaxatfves. It's quality is
due not only to the excellence of the
combination of the laxative and carmIn-
alive principles of plants known to act
most benefcially on the system and pre-
scented in the form of a pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also to the method
of manufacture of the California Fig
Syrup Co. which ensures that uniforni-
~ ana purity essential in a remedy in
clan who is well informed and he will
answer at once that it is an excellent
laxative. If at ali eminent in his pro-
fession and has made a special study OF
Iaxatives and their effects upon the sys-
TEN he will tell you that It is the best
of family laxatives. because It is sim
pie and wholesome and cIeanses and
sweetens the system effectuaily when
a laxative is needed, without any I'M
pleasant after-effects. Every weIl-in-
formed druggist of reputable standing
knows that Syrup of Figs is an excel
lent laxative and is glad to sell it, at
the regular price of fifty cents per bot
tie. because it gives general satisfac-
ton, but one should remember that in
order to get the beneficial effects Of
Syrup of Figs it is necessary to buy the
