of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the

rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
beneficially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
AS there is only one genuine Syrup of
