General Demand

OF the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; q laxative which physicians could

acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-

Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits Of the laxative for its remark
able success.
