If Feverish, Bilious, Constipated, Give Fruit Laxative at
 once.

Don't scold your fretful, peevish child. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels are clogged with sour waste.
 When listless, pale feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom- ach-ache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give teaspoonful of "Califcrnia Syrup of Figs" and i na few hours all the foul waste, the sour bile and ferment- ing food passes out of the bowels and you have a we'll and playful child again. Children love this harmless fruit laxative" and mothers can rest easy after giving it, because it never fails to make their little "in- sides" clean and sweet.
 Keep it handy, Mother! A little given today saves sick child tomor- row, but get the genuine. Ask ycur druggist for bottle of "California Syrup of Figs" which has directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly on the bottle. Remember there are counterfeits sold here, so surely look and see that yours is made by the California F Syrup Company" Hand back with contempt any other fig syrup-Ady.

 Railroads companies are strict about the physical condition of their loco motive engineers. An engineer has hundreds of lives in his custody every time he takes out a train load of pas sengers. So when Engineer K. $: Hardy, of Marshall, Tex, got sick and was examined by the chief surgeon of the Texas Pacific hospital, he was made to quit work when the doctor found he had a very bad case of Bright's Disease. Hardy then went to Denver, Col.-to a specialist-who found the blood pressure 225 and urine full of albumin. Doctor told him he would never be able to work any more. Hardy then returned home and some friend suggested that he take the cele- brated Hobo Kidney and Bladder Rem- edy. He took thirteen bottles, was again examined by chief surgeon, who said his blood pressure was normal and mo albumin.

can make it. Many people who are not

instruments used by the Birmingham

Mr.. Wiegand said. But before mention
ing the beautiful instrument which Mr..
Hugo Ok uses, I want to say that few
violinists I have ever heard possess the
delicacy of tone that Mr.. Ok does. He
has been heard with the st. Louis SYM
phony, and for years has been regarded
as one of the ablest artists in that splen-
did organization He plays with au-
thority, and his tonal balance is espe-
cially notable. The instrument which
Mr.. Ok plays is a genuine Guarnerius.
He is very proud of it, and 1T is gem.
