a strange, mixture of the history of George
Washington the other day. A visitor called
during the absence of his parents, and to
entertain the children and instill a lesson of
manly honor and patriotism told them the
famous stories of the liberty bell and tho
cherry tree. The scion of the soldier was
much interested, but tho details got badly
twisted in his head. When his father re
turned, homo he was told of the fine story
the visitor had told about the Father of his
Country. "Washington must have been a

THE CHILDREN ENJOY
Iyife out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoy
ment which they receive and the efforts which they make, conies the
greater part of that healthful development which is so essential to their
happiness when grown. When a laxative is 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 pjcasant 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 tlie 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 tlie 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 tlie health of
the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous deal
ers sometimes offer to increase their profits. Tlie genuine article may be
bought anywhere of all reliable druggists at fifty cents per bottle. Please
to remember, the full name of the Company
