SYRUP OF FIGS
FOR CROSS, SICK,
FEVERISH CHILD
If Little Stomach Is Sour, Liver
Torpid or Bowels
Clogged

Mothers can rest easy, after giving
"California Syrup of Figs" because in a
few hours all the clogged-up waste, sour
bile and fermenting food gently moves
out of the bowels, and you have a we'll
playful child again. Children simply will
not take the time from play TO empty
their bowels, and they become tightly
packed, liver gets sluggish and stomach
disordered.
When cross, fevcrish, restless, see if
tongue is coated, then give this delicious
"fruit laxative" Children love it, and
it can not cause injury. No difference
what ails your little one--if full of cold,
or a sore throat, darrhra, and stomach
ache, bad breath, remember, gentle Sin
side cleansing" should always be the first
treatment given. Full directions for ba-
bies, children of all ages and grown-ups
are printed on each bottle
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask
your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
California Syrup of Figs" then look
and see that it is made by the
California Fig Syrup company" We
make no smaller size. Hand back with
contem any other fig syrup.--Adv.

The YOUNG MAN MUST CHOOSE.
Even American Parents Arc Not Al
WAYS Reasonable.

In the January Womans Home
Companion the Rev Charles z. JEFF
eTson Of the broadway Tabernacle has
a sermon to grown-up sons in which
he says that even American parents
arc often unreasonable.
Some of the most pu2zling prob
lens which men must face are created
by the attitude Of their parents, and
not few of the most distressing trag-
edies I'm human life spring out Of
tangled parental and filial relations.
For instance. who is going to de-
eide what a boys life work shall be2
Parents sometimes insist that this IS
a part Of their parental prerogative.
They attempt to drive their sons into
calling5 for which they have no taste
and no native aptitude. Many a man
is today unhappy and defeated be-
cause his self-willed father forced
him into business which he despised.
There is a point beyond which no pa
rent should go in attempting TO con-
