Good Judges

f. Americans as judges are keenly dis
eliminating. They measure everything
by the success it attains, which meth
cd, considered in the light Of the com.
mon experience Of mankind, Is Ger.
tainly not bad one. The high stand.
ard of intelligence and discernment in
this country, where education is the
rule and not the exception, renders it
difficult and surprising to find general
national success not based on actual
worth. Hence it was that with the
presentation of st. Jacobs Oil they cor
rectly judged it at once, and decided
that rare intrinsic worth only could be
the source of it's success. The decision
with them was equivalent to an adop-
ton; and 1t is rare thing to find q
family without st. Jacobs Oil in the
house.

The
General Demand

Of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasapt
and efficient liquid laxative remedy OF
known value; laxative which physi-
clans could sanction for family use
because It's component 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
excellent combination of Syrup Of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
Of the laxative for its remarkable
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 genuine
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only, and for sale by all leading
