If CONsTIPATE
If PeeviSh, Feyerish and Sick,

ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a gen.
tie liver and bowel cleansing should
always be the first treatment given.
Nothing equals California Syrup of
Figs" for children's ills; give 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-ups are plainly on

tie given today saves a 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

AT THE AUDITORIUM.
5eatriz Micheiena in The, unwritten Law-speciai Seven Part Feature Today and Tomorrow.

A special picture attraction for today and tomorrow has been secured by the management of the Auditorium at great expense, and 1t promises to be one of the greatest features ever shown in this city. The picture is in seven reels and is entitled The Unwritten Law, taken from the play of the same name by Edwin Milton RoyIe.
 The story may be taken as one of woman in 1le apstract-good and loyal as a rule, yet-human. The concrete example with whom we are concerned Is Kate Wilson, of whom Beatriz Michelena makes a character that will live. Kate is the wife of John Wilson, the states most brilliant district attor- ney, who, at the height of his career is ruined almost directly by political boss-Larry Mccarthy. Wilson takes to drink, and, still urged by Mccarthy, who admires Kate from afar, sinks lower and lower in the social scale until he is merely drunkard for whose living his wife does menial work. After last misfortune, when his vice has made him fail to protect his wife from McCarthy's obvious ad- vances, Wilson disappears The boss continues kind and considerate to Kate and her little daughter and at last she consents to divorce her absent husband and marry him. McCarthy's former sweetheart arrives; he cannot resist her allurementS, and prepares to go away with Iler on the eve of the prom ised wedding. There follows clever ly managed hysterical scene, of which the result is that Larry is found shot, and that the returned husband, John Wilson, is arrested with the revolver in his hand. Kate lies sick, with her memory a blank. At this point the lead-up to tlle climax begins, the in teresting suspense beautifully managed. Wilson is tried and almost convicted for the murder, but his wife recovers her memory and, pleading the unwritten law, confesses that she shot the be- trayer Mccarthy The shock of the ous habit. No charge is laid against Kate, and the picture ends with the future opening bright before the re- united family.
 BeatriZ Michelena may consider that in this picture she has done the best work of her career. The star has cer- tain passages to play that constitute a severe test of ability; notably the scene after the tragedy, with all it's tempta- tions to exaggeration and rant; and the court room scene, which demands real feeling Of an unusual order. The | work of Andrew Robson as Larry Mo 1 Carthy is clever throughout. And | there Is one other member of the cas- who deserves especial mention-Balby l Frelice Rix
