 Overcome

constipation permanently by proper personal cooperation with the bene- ficial effects of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, when required. The forming of regular habits is most inn portant and while endeavoring to form them the assistance of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is most val uable, as it is the only laxative which acts without disturbing the natural functions and without facilitating and it is the one laxative which leaves the internal organs in a naturally healthy condition, thereby really aiding ono in that way. To get its beneficial effects. buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Go. only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is never classed by the well.informed with medicines which make extravagant and unfounded claims to cure habitual constipation without personal coop eration.
