Every mother realizes, after giving her children "California Syrup of Figs" that this is their ideal laXa- tive, because they love it's pleasant taste and it thoroughly cleanses the tender little stomach, liver and bowels
 without gripping.
 When cross, irritable, feverish or breath is bad, stomach sour, look at the tongue mother! If coated, give teaspoonful of this harmless fruit laxative" and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, sour bile and
 undigested food passes out of the
 bowels, and you have a well, play full child again. When the little sys- tenn is full of cold, throat sore, has stomach ache, diarrhoea, indigestion, colic-remembe good inside
 cleansing should always be the first treatment given.
 Millions of mothers keep "CaIifor- mia Syrup of Figs" handy; they know a teaspoonful today saves a sick child tom orrow. Ask your druggist for a
 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs which has directions for ba-
 bies, children of all ages and grown
 ups printed on the bottle. Beware
 of commercials sold here so don't be fooled. Get the genuine, made by "California Fig Syrup Company"

An Old Proverb.

It used to be proverbial that every man (and 1t is certainly no less true of woman) is either a fool or a phY- sician at forty. This means that every intelligent person must learn so much about caring for his own health that by the time he is forty years of age he can almost be reck- oned as a physician.
 Why, then, is there so much talk by doctors against ''self-medication"e A woman can recognize all ordinary ailments without calling on a doctor If they are ailments distinctive to her sex she generally knows enough to use that greatest of all remedies for such ailments, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and likewise she is familiar with the standard remedies for other diseases.

genuine blessing; it would have been the means of saving some of the ter ribIe waste from which most of the social evils of humanity are spread ing. As an ardent social refOrmer I freely confess I was learning a good deal from that side of Germany, par ticularly in the direction of municipal and national organization.
 But this is my other point; Side by side with this Germany which we ad- mired was the military Germany.
 These two Germanys could not live together in rapid and beneficial development. This first Germany meant the permanent overthrow of old barbarous Germany, for in spite of the fact that it mployed weapons of science and culture it was not the less barbarous.
 MT. Lloyd George is confident of the outcome of the war. Reminded of a dictation of victory made a year ago he remarked that he was still of the same opinion,
 "Eng1and," he said, lis planning to put her whole weight into the war, and Germany will feel it very shortly. It is an effort such as England has never made before-a truly prodigious
 
 she had the greatest fleet in the world but now she has one of the greatest armies; and in a very short time 1t will be about the best equipped army in the world"
 The question was put to him, how ever, what he expected to see in the world if Germany emerged victori- ous He outlined the domination of the pernicious ideal that might makes right, a helpless Europe, a Germany in which the evil side had triumphed a Britain deprived of her fleet, and possibly a Monroe Doctrine faring no better than the fleet"
 The minister of munitions declared that the talk of the possible indus trial trouble in England was great ly exaggerated and that industrial compulsion was merely a bugaboo raised by a few opponents of the con- scription bill

 I think America and all of us should realize there were two Ger manys before the war. On the one hand there was the industrial com mercial and intellectual Germany and in a most remarkable way she had blended the three elements.
 Now that Germany was rendering a great service to civilization. It was conquering the world by the success of it's methods and example. That conquest would have proved a very
