DID CHILD WAKE UP
 CROSS OR EEVERIsH?
Look Mother! If Tongue is Coated Give "CaIifornia Syrup of Figs" to Clean the Bowels.

Motherl Your child isn't naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue IS coated; this is a sure sign it's little stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing at once.
 When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold. breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat. sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, diarrh0ea, remember, gentle liver and bowel cleansing should always be the first treatment given.
 Nothing equals California Syrup of Figs for children's ills; give a tea spoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fermenting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the system, and you have "a well and playful child again. All children love this harmless, delicious fruit laxative" and it never fails to effect a good inside" cleansing. Di- rections for babies children of all ages and grown-up are plainly on the bot tie.
 Keep it handy in your home. A lit tie given today saves sick child to- morrow, but get the genuine. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs" then look and see that it is made by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Company" Counter feits are being sold here. Don't be fooled!

 Severe Attack.
 With so much grippe prevalent this winter a few words of advice regards ing its calIse and treatment will not be out of place.
 Grippe is, an infectious disease cas- fly taken when the system is in . tired or rundown condition
 The best means of prevention are to keep the blood in good healthy condition, and if the system gets into "a weak, rundown condition, take Vi- mol, our delicious cod liver and iron tonic.
 A lady from Long Branch. N. J., says: Grippe left me in a nervous, weakened, run down condition. After taking three bottles of VinoI I am better and stronger than I have been for years, and I cheerfully recommend Vinol to all who have suffered from the grippe and need strength" :" (Name furnished on request.)
 We have never sold in our store such a valuable strength creator and health restorer for the convalescent, the weak and rundown as Vinol, and your money will be returned if it does not do all we claim for 1t. Broadway Pharmacy, G. G. Engler, Norwich, Conn.
 P. S. If you have any skin trouble try Saxo Salve. We guarantee it.

The Constellation was launched at Baltimore, Sept. [, 1794 and when Key was writing the natlonal anthem, was doing service in Chesapeake bay. The Constellation has long been an attraction for Newport, so long that the ship has become to
 be ciassed as a permanent fixture, and there is strong opposition to the pro
 posed removal from all sections of
