of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments Of its chemists have
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
bene6cially and combining them most
sIdllfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
As there is only one genuine Syrup Of
Figs and Elixir Of Senna and as the gen.
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial effects.
A knowledge Of the above facts enables
one to decline limitations or to return them
