portant Than Wealth with
out Ii.

II 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 world wide
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 a century OF
growth and general use the excellent
remedy. Syrup OF Figs, is everywhere
accepted, throughout the world, as the
best of family laxatives. Its 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 pleasant and re-
freshing liquid. but also TO the method
OF manufacture OF the California Fig
ty and purity essential in a remedy in
tended for family use. Ask any physi-
clan who Is well informed and he will
answer at once that ii Is an excellent
laxative. If at ali eminent in his pro-
fesslon and has made a special study OF
laxatives and their effects upon the sys-
tenn he will tell you that 1t is the best
OF family laxatlves. because II Is SIM
pie and wholesome and cleanses and
sweetens the system effectually, when
a laxative is needed. without any I'M
pleasant after-effects. Every well-ln-
formed druggist OF reputable standing
knows that Syrup OF Figs Is an excel
lent laxative and is glad to sell IL, at
the regular price OF fifty cents per bot
tie, because II gives general satisfac-
ton. but one should remember that in
order to get the beneficial effects OF
Syrup OF Figs II Is necessary to buy the
genuine, which Is sold in original pack
ages only; the name OF the remedy
Syrup OF Figs and also the full name OF
the Comrany-California Fig Syrup Co.
