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 combination 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 laxatives. 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 q pleasant and re-
freshing liquid, but also. to the method
Of manufacture Of the California Fig

clan who Is well informed and he will
answer at once that 1t Is an excellent
! laxative. IL at all eminent in his pros

laxatives and their effects upon the sys-
| tenn he will tell you that 1t is the best
of family laxatives, because it is sins
pie and wholesome and cleanses and
sweetens the system effectually. when
q laxative IS needed, without any un-
pleasant after-efects. Every well-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
