CHILDREN HATE
PILLS, CAL0MEL
and CASTOR OIL
If cross, feverish, consti-
pated, give California
Syrup of Figs"

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 differ
ent. Mothers who cling to the
old form of physic simply don't
realize what they do. The chill
dren's revolt is well-founded.
Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
IL your child's stomach, liver
and bowels need cleansing, give
only delicious California Syrup
of Figs" Its action Is positive,
but gentle. Millions of mothers
keep this harmless fruit laxa-
tive" handy; they know children
love to take it; that 1t never fails
to clean the liver and bowels and
sweeten the stomach, and that
teaspoonful given today saves a
sick child tomorrow.
Ask your druggist for a So
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. Beware of counterfeits
sold here. See that it is made by
California Fig Syrup Company"
Refuse any other kind with con-
tempt.

renting or occupying any premises,
vehicle or boat where liquor is
sold or given away unlawfully, is
liable to punishment, and the
premises, vehicle or boat may be
abated as a nuisance. Upon con-
viction, the court must order the
place closed until bond of 81 900
is put up to obey the law. If the
law is then violated, the money is
forfeited in whole, or in part, as
the court may adjudge. Fixtures
used in the sale of liquor, as we'll
as the liquor, are to be confiseat-
ed. except such fixtures as may
be used for other legitimate pur-
poses. Such fixtures are to be
sold and the money turned over
to the school fund.
A druggist who violates the law
in any respect loses the right to
sell liquor for two years upon
first conviction. On second con-
viction, he loses his right to
practice pharmacy and cannot re-
gain his license for two years.
Penalty for Misuse.
A physician who issues a pre-
scription knowing his patient is
not sick and does not need liquor,
is prohibited from ever issuing
another prescription for liquor, If
convicted, and druggists are pro-
hibited from recognizing his pre-
lscriptiOn. Prescriptions must con-
tain names of physician as we'll as
patient, date and quantity of liq-
uor prescribed.
No liquor may be even given
away in clubs.
In order to have liquor shipped
to any individual-not more than
one-half gallon liquor or IL quarts
beer-a permit must be secured
from the county auditor. Such
permit cannot be obtained oftener
than once in 20 days by any indi-
yidual, who must appear PERSONAL
ly at the auditors office and
make the application, giving his
name, the person or company who
is to ship the liquor, and the ex-

ial days.
The BOllings, in fact, trace
their ancestry back to John
Rolfe, who married POcahOntas.
So Edith Boiling, the present
Mrs. Norman Gait, is really a de.
scendant of the famous Indian
maiden who figured so prOmi-
nently i'm the early history of
America.
Edith Boiling was the young
est of the four daughters. Her
mother before her marriage was
Miss Sallie White, and the
Whites were an old Bedford coun-
ty family. Little Edith Boiling
also had five brothers.
She did not attend public
school, but was educated by a
governess and her maternal
grandmother, Mrs. Logwood, who
prepared her later for college.
She was also ''brung up by
AUNT Becky" Anderson, a negro
nanny who served the Boiling
family for 80 years.
When she grew old enough she
was sent away to Martha Wash
ington college at Abingdon, and
afterwards to the then well
known finishing school, Powell

Don't stock up u lot of
liquor I'm the hope that after
January 1, when the prOhi-
bitiOn law goes into effect,
you will have nice supply
on hand.
Don't fIatter yourself you'll
put one over by arranging
to be "sick" and getting
prescription for liquor from
II physician.
Don't get a lot of sO-called
"near-beer," with the idea
that IL will pass muster un-
der the prohibition law.
Don't rely on the assump-
ton that druggists and "blind
tigers" will be here a-plenty
to accommodate wet appe-
titles.
II you entertain any OF
these notions, you have fall
ed to read the prohibition
law that will be enforced in

men who knew what they
were after. and they have
overlooked no bets. PrOhibi-
ton In this state will be no
farce. 1t will really prohibit,

cOmplish 1t.
The following Is a digest of
the prohibition law, and will
give you a very decided idea
as to how it will operate aft
e. the first of the year:
No person is permitted to hav
n his or her possession, in an,
house, building, vehicle or boat
intoxicating liquors In excess
,ne-half gallon of liquor of an,
sort, or more than IL quarts o

All liquor in excess of sucl
must be shipped out o
he state by January 10, or els
t will be confiscated, togethe
with the liquor fixtures. Failur
% ship such liquor out of .th
state will be considered prim
'acie evidence of intention to via

1t is unlawful to manufacture
