Capital Girl
i'm Health Test

Millions Of boys and girls all
over the world, thousands OF them
right here in Washington, are
being restored to health and
strength by the purely vegetable
tonic and laxative known as Cali
fornia Fig Syrup and endorsed by
physicians for over so years.
Children need no urging to take
1t. They love its rich, fruity flavor.
Nothing can compete with it as a
gentle, but certain laxative, and it
goes further than this. It gives
tone and strength to the stomach
and bowels so these organs con-
finue to act normally of their own
i accord. It stimulates the appe-
tie, helps digestion.
A Washington mother, Mrs.
Louis Wilding, 1852 Florida Ave.
NE, says: Agnes is absolutely
the picture of health, now, with
her ruddy cheeks, bright eyes and
plump but graceful little body and
she stands at the top in every
health test.
Much of the credit for her per-
feet condition is due to California
Fig Syrup. We have used 1t since
babyhood to keep her bowels active
during colds or any children's all
mentS and she has always had an
easy time with them. She always
responds to its gentle urging and
Is quickly back to normal"
Ask your druggist for California
Fig Syrup and look for the word

You'll ALWAYS get the genuine.
