The Children Enjoy
Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoyment
which they receive and the efforts which they make, comes the greater part of that
healthful development which is so essential to their happiness when grown. When
a laxative ia needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and
strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would
sanction, because its component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy
itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and
parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is? Syrup
of Figs? and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by
fathers and mothers.
Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally
without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually,
without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old
time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so
carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not
needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only
the simple, pleasant and gentle? Syrup of Figs.
Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative
principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our
original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do
not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to
increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company ?
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO.? is printed on the front of every package. In
order to get its oenenciai
effects it is always neces
sary to buy the genuine
only. For sale by all re
liable druggists.

W. C. Johnston, gardener, of 1021

pains in the small of my back and ach
ing at night. In the morning when I
arose, I felt lame and sore and tired
very easily and often felt languid. Oc
casslonally, there were attacks of head
aches aud dizzy spells and often there
were specks before my eyes. The kid
ney secretions were Infrequent and con
tained a sediment. The relief I obtained
from Dean's Kidney Pills was very
gre^t. I felt b tter after taking the
