California Syrup of Figs" Can't Harm Tender Stomach or

A laxative today saves sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach sour. .5
 Look at the tongue, mother! If coated, or your child is listless, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat, or any other children's ail- ment. give a teaspoonful of "Califor- nia Syrup of Figs" then don't worry. because it is perfectly harmless, and in a few hours all this constipation poison, sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move out of the bowels. and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough "inside cleansing" is oftimes all that is necessary. It should be the first treatment given in any sickness.
 Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your druggist for 50-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs" which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that it is made by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Company."-Adv.

Washington, Sept. 13. - Senator John H. Bankhead of Alabama, one of the veterans of the upper house, re. ceived the hearty congratulations of his colleagues today on the occasion of his seventy fifth birthday anniver- sary. The venerable senator is hale and hearty for man of his years and apparently undisturbed by the po- litical rumors afloat in his home state that he is to have opposition when he comes up for reelection next year.
 It is 30 years since Mr.. Bankhead first came to Washington, having commenced his career as a national lawmaker in 1887 as member of the lower house. Twenty years later he was named United States senator to succeed the late Senator John T.Mor- pan.

It would perhaps be desirable, in order not to excite the enemy's suspicion to treat with secrecy the matter of the issue of patents until the end of the war, should the decision be favorable to my suggestion. This would mean that the matter be communicated to no one but the recipient and his gov ernment and to them only under the seal of secrecy. While the publication of the bestowal of the declaration would be best held until the end of the war. I would be particularly grate- full to your excellency if I could be furnished with telegraphic news of the bestoWal of the decoration, which I strongly recommend in view of the circumstances detailed above.
