HOLLANDS QUEEN
 DEEPLY INTERESTED
 IN ARMY WELFARE

The Hague, Oct. 13.-(Correspon- dent of the Associated Press.)- Queen Wilhelmina of Holland takes the greatest interest in her army. Dur ing the last two weeks she has made several tours of inspection along the border looking into matters strictly military and paying special attention to the health and comfort of her men. r Of her most recent trip to the Linn burg border the Meijerische Courant tells Nhe following story, part of which will be best appreciated when it is borne in mind that the queen is no longer the svelt young girl of yore but with advancing years has increas- ed in weight considerably.
 After a. review of the troops" says the paper, Her Majesty went to a nearby barn in front of which sentry was on duty. Some of the men had been housed in the barn.
 gro the question of Her Majesty how she could get to the upper floor of the barn. the sentry replied that a Iadder-a most primitive, rickety af- fair-was the only means of access.
 'tThe queen eyed the ladder for a moment, and then began the ascent slowly, steadying herself by seizing the beams.
 when she arrived on the floor she found that it was the quarters of a number of soldiers, who, seeing the 
 unable to reply promptly to her ques- ton: Are you satisfied, boys?'
 fBut the smartest of the company soon gathered his wits and replied: Well satisfied, Your Majesty
 And how is the food?'
 4s Very good, Your Majesty
 How are conditions otherwise 2
 Beginning to be a little cold, Your Majesty
 'The queen for moment surveyed the roof whose tiles seemed to be air proof in the least possible degree and remarked:
 That does not surprise me- With that she turned to a member of her entourage with the instruction: 'To- morrow that must be changed
 Turning again to the soldier, she asked:
 :. How are the sleeping accom- p1odations?'
 We could do with another blan- ket, Your Majesty replied the sol dier, who by now seemed to be quite at ease.
 Again the queen turned to one of the persons with her and ordered that more blankets be provided.
 After this the queen descended the rickety ladder, plainly gratifed witt the opportunity of having been of some service to her soldiers
 Queen Wilhelmina is quite an au- thor1ty on military matters, such as organization and equipment, and is credited even with a comprehensive Knowledge of military engineering.
 To be reviewed by the queen is not a matter of form, as might be expect ed in the case of a woman On the contrary Queen WiIhelmina detects ineff1ciency very quickly, as some o1 her oficers have good reason to know |. In fact 1t is asserted here that Hel l Majesty expects more from her army than the periods of drill and expendi lures would seem to warrant.

CHILD GETS SICK, CROSS, FEvERISH
 IF CONSTlPATED
California Syrup of Figs" can't harm tender stomach
 or bowels.

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 coated, or your child is Iistless, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children's ailment, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs" then don't worry, be- cause it is perfectly harmless, and in few hours all this constipation poison, sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough inside cleansing is oftimes all that is necessary. It should be the first treatment given in any sickness.
 Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "CaIfornia Syrup of F1gs,'' which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that it Is made by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Company.
