N Street Girl
Got Well Quick

II had a lot OF trouble with my
little daughter, Edith" says Mrs.
H. G. Eubank, 1929 N Street NV.
"She got very weak and pale, her
breath was bad and her tongue
coated and nothing seemed to
agree with her.
1--WE decided her trouble was
constipation and began giving her
California Fig Syrup. It bright
ened her up right away, strength
ened her, gave her a good appe-
tite. In few days she looked like
a new girl. We have used Fig
Syrup since then for every upset
or feverish spell, and it always
helps her wonderfully"
Children like the rich, fruity
taste Of California Fig Syrup, and
you can give it to them as often
as they need it, because it is pure
ly vegetable. For over so years
leading physicians have recon-
mended it, and it's overwhelming
sales record of over four million
bottles a year shows it gives salts
faction. Nothing compares with
it as gentle but certain laxative,
and it goes further than this. It
regulates the stomach and bowels
and gives tone and strength to
these organs so they continue to
act normally, of their own accord.
There are many limitations of
California Fig Syrup, so look for
the name California" on the car
ton to be sure you get the genuine.

1929 LOOKS GOOD,
WOOLEN'S VIEW
Banker Cites Promising
1929 Indications; Adds
Don't Be Too Sure.'

IF one were to remark to a
haphazard group in this Part of the
country that production in the
United States has been greater than
in any other year and that bust
ness has been satisfactory both in
volume and earnings, he would be
pretty sure to encounter some
surprising comment about unevenly
distributed prosperity" writes Evans
Woollen, president of the Fletcher
Savings and Trust Company, in a
current publication of the bank.
With short term money as firm
as it is" he said, "one is reminded
by past experience to ask whether
we have gone over the crest of our
prosperity area. With speculation in
securities as wild and widespread as
it is one asks whether the inevitable
reaction will extend in it's effects
to industry, commerce and banking
1T is easy enough to ask the
questions. OF course they can not
be answered. One need not regard
himself as a peSsimiSt merely be-
cause he asks them.
Among other things to be taken
up are the gold movement, we lost
a quarter billion dollars in 1923, and
loans to brokers by Others than
banks, which is of such a size as to
cause misgivings.
1.-THE year 1929 looks good, at
least as to major units and for the
early months, but we do not bave to
be too sure about it, he Said in
closing.
