MOTHER! IF CHILD'S
TONGUE is COATED
If CROSS, FEVERlSH, CoNSTIPAT
ED, GIVE "CALlFORNIA SYRUP
OF FIGS"

A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach
sour
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat
ed, or your child is listless, cross, few
erish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other childrens ailment, give
a teaspoonful of California Syrup of
Figs" then don't worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and in a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently move
out Of the bowels, and you have a we'll,
playful child again. A thorough "in-
side cleansing" is oftimes all that is
necessary. 1t should be the first treat
ment given in any sickness.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrup Ask
your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
California Syrup of Figs" which has
full directions for babies, children Of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Look carefully
and see that 1t is made by the Cali
ornia Fig Syrup Company" Don't be
fooled!
