CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
It is cruel to force nauseatinQ,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel. cathartics.
How you hated them. how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt Is well-found-
ed. Their tender little 'insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing. give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
OF all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv

mission has decided to make examina
tion of the damage done by washouts
In Phantom cafon' on the Florence &
Cripple Creek railroad, which the road
claims will not be rebuilt to afford
Florence shippers short route facili-
ties for their products. A hearing OF
the claims made by the Chamber Of
Commerce of Canon City and the

defense in Denver. December Is.
Meanwhile engineers will make compu-
tations of the cost necessary to
rebuild three or four miles of track
washed out in Phantom canon, and
the commission will go to the canon
and make personal examination.

from Florence and Canon City to Grip
pie Creek several industries in the
Florence district have been forced out
of business. Fruit shippers at Flor
ence are forced to ship around by the
way of Pueblo to reach the Cripple
Crek district.
