And let the files come In the house
And track mud on the roor
They play horse 'm9as the fowerpots
And take toads long TO bed
And twist themselves all into Knots
And stand round on their head
They take a drop into tac wei
And climb 10 the housesop.

General Demand

of the Well-Informed Of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a 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 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 Wel-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the Observation-Disclosures by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
