No matter what ails your child, a
gentle, thorough laxative should al
ways be the first treatment given.
If your little one is out-of-sorts,
half-sick, isn't resting, eating and
acting naturally-look, Mother! see if
tongue is coated. This is a sure sign
that the little stomach, liver and
bowels are clogged with waste. When
cross, irritable, fererish, stomach
sour, breath bad or has stomach-acfe,
diarrhoea, sore throat, full of cold,
give a teaspoonful of California
Syrup of Figs" and in a few hours
all the constipated poison, undigested
food and sour bile gently moves out
cf the little bowels without gripping,
and you have a well, playful child
again
Mothers can rest easy after giving
this harmless fruit laxative" becau. e
it never fails to cleanse the l'stle ones
liver and bowels and sweeten the
stomach and they dearly love its
pleasant taste. Full directions for ba-
bies. children of all ages and for
grown-ups printed on each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups-
Ask your druggist fol a 50-cent bot
tie of California Syrup of Figs" then
see that it is made by the California
Fig Syrup Company" Advertise

ton has been received from Vienna

prominent in Austrian political affairs

LID ON NAVY SPEECHES
Secretary Daniels DiscIoses That Of
ficers Can't Discuss Preparedness.

Washington, Jan. Secretary Dan
iels has disclosed that he had de-
clined to permit either Rear Admiral
Fiske or Rear Admiral Knight to
speak on the navy program even
though he was assured that the pro-
posed addresses would not be made
public. The request was made by
John w. Scott president of the Com
mercial club of Chicago. by telegraph
to President Wilson. Secretary Dan
iels replied in part az follows:
1T is my conviction that the expert
opinion of the navy department having
been given to the public and congress
and the president having outlined a
policy of naval construction, it is bet
ter for civilians to lead the fight for
enlargement, while naval officers fol-
low the unbroken policy of not at
tempting to influence legislature.
Until I became secretary of the navy
the reports of the general board had
been regarded az confidential I have
published all their recommendations
for increase in the navy. Experts will
give their views to the naval affairs
committee in congress and hearings
will be published. This gives congress
and the people the opinions of the
experts"
