MOTHER! GIVE CHILD
SYRUP OF FIGS" IF
TONGUE is COATED
If cross, feverish, sick, bilious
clean little liver and
bowels.

Children love this "fruit laxative"
and nothing else cleanses the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop play
ing to empty its bowels, and the re-
suit is, they become tightly clogged
with waste, liver gets sluggish, stona-
och sours, then your little one be-
comes cross, half-sick, feverish, don't
eat, sleep or act naturally, breath is
bad system full of cold, has sore
throat, stomach ache or diarrhoea.
Listen, Mother! See if tongue is
coated, then give a teaspoonful of
"California Syrup Of Figs" and in a
few hours all the constipated waste,
sour bile and undigested food passes
out of the system, and you have
well, playful child again.
Millions Of mothers give "Califor-
MIA Syrup of Figs" because it is per
tfectly harmless; children love it, and
it never fails to act on the stomach,
liver and bowels.
Ask your druggist for a bottle of
California Syrup Of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, child
rem of all ages and for grown-ups
blainly printed on the bottle. Be
ware of counterfeits sold here. Get
the genuine, made by "California
Fig Syrup Company" Refuse any
other kind with contempt.

around the world and everybody an
swered it; before the government
could arrange the preliminaries for
supplying the soldier boys with COM
forts and conveniences, this organi-
cation collected and competed many
ship loads Of sweaters, hoods, banda
ges, surgical dressings and other ne
cessary articles, and they were going
across the seas. The demands grew
bigger and the workers multiplied;
the click of industry and the soft,
gentle trend of brave womanhood
carried messages to brothers, sons,
and sweethearts across the Atlantic,
and they have been going over ever
since.
Men have learned to do valuable
things, and what the lady folks have
failed to know something about, is
not in the calendar. A standard of
new industry has been struck, and
the whole nation would be the ben
eficiary if it was kept up under reas-
enable regulations.
Germany became a powerful ma
ton by the practice of this doctrine,
and if the United States had not
stopped the mad rush towards an en-
pire of Europe, they would have
cleaned the whole bunch. Here is
lesson for everybody.
This may not be the last war.
Another generation and its effects
are forgotten. We have a country
to the South, whose people imagine
that one Mexican can whip 40 Amer
leans, and the day may come when
we might have to take them through
a course of just how fierce an Amer
lean soldier can be when it is neces
sary to stop the ravages of another
country. 1t is true that nothing in
Europe will be willing to attempt
any humbuggery with the United
States, but part of Asia may enter
tain a different opinion. Every
American should keep his eyes open.
1t might pay.-Weekly Waterman.
