General Demand

Of the Wen-Informed- of the World has
always been for q simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; q 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 ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relics
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 Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuinc-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

Thought an Operation Necessary
-Cuticura's Efficacy Proven.

Il am now 80 years old, and three
years ago I was taken with an at
tack of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding
and protruding. The doctor said the
only help for me was to go to a
hospital and be operated on. l tried
several remedies for months but did
not get much help. During this time
sores appeared which changed to a
terrible itching eczema. Then 1 began
to use Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Pills. injecting quantity of Cuticura
Ointment with a Cuticura Suppository
Syringe. 1t took a month of this
treatment to get me in fairly healthy
state and then treated myself once
day for three months and, after that,
once or twice week The treatments
| tried took lot of money, and it is
fortunate that I used Cuticura. ]. H

Youtnfur Loc,e,


Mrs. l., young and inexperienced
Sunday. school teacher. was at times
sorely perplexed how to answer the
questions put to her by some of her un-
usually bright pupils. One day just
after she had finished telling the chill
dren the story that Adam was the first
man God created quiet reigned in the
classroom for several minutes. Sud-
denly up jumped little Rose, and in a
piping voice said: "Oh, teacher, you
forgot to tell US whether God created
Adam right away a man or : baby,"
Embarrassed, Mrs. L. looked up to the
ceiling and then to the children for an
inspiration. Happily she quickly spied
Betty's little hand raised above the
others eager to answer the question.
Teacher, 1 am surprised my sister
Rosie should ask such a foolish ques-
ton. Why, God must have created
Adam right away a big man. because
II God had created him a baby he
would have had to have a mother to
take care of him"
