General Dem

Of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for q simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its cx-
cellcnt combination of Syrup of Figs and
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.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Wcll-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuinc-manufacture by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cent?

It IL absorbed. A Yorkstate woman
says:
Il had been a sufferer for ten years
with stomach and liver trouble. and
had got so bad that the least bit Of
food such as ! then knew. would give
me untold misery for hours after
eating.
Il lost flesh until ! was almost
shadow of my original self and my
friends were quite alarmed about me.
First dropped coffee and used
Postum. then began TO use Grape-Nuts
although ! had little faith It would do
me any good.
But continued to use the food and
have gained twenty pounds In weight

way. feel as IL life had truly begun
anew for me.
Il can eat anything like now in
moderation. suffer no III effects. be on

Whereas n year ago they had TO send
me away from home for rest while
others cleaned house for me. this
spring have been able to do It myself
all alone.
my breakfast is simply Grape.Nuts
with cream and cup Of Postum. with
sometimes an egg and a piece of toast.
but generally only Grape-Nuts and
Postum. And ! can work until noon

ed him. lie said II was like the rage
Of a waiter that he had noted one
