AFTER HALF CENTURY In IS"4 a traveler named Rohlfa crossed the Libyan desert in the di reetion of Kufra, which the Italians recently captured from the Senussi tribes. Rohlfa wrote a message giv ing his own name and the date, en closed it in a bottle, buried it in the sand at a place called Regnfld, and returned to civilization. The bottle and the message have now been dis covered. The Arctic embalms its se crets for hundreds of years, the bod ies of men in the ice, their writings, their foods, their property; but who would expect such fidelity in the burning sands of the wilderness, where wood and horn and glass and even fingernails split in the heat, and hair falls out? TRY THIS! When children won't eat and won’t gain weight The youngster who has no appetite, probably has stasis. A little syrup of figs will soon correct this condition —then watch the child eat—and gain ! Mothers should never coax a child to eat. Nature knows best. Remove the cause of a youngster’s poor ap petite—get rid of stasis. Children who don’t eat are sluggish. Read what the “California treatment” is doing for sluggish, listless children in every part of the country! A POUND A WEEK. Your child will eat .veil from the day and hour you conquer sluggishness. But that girl or boy with furry tongue and a bad breath should not be dosed with salts! Begin tonight, with enough pure syrup of figs to cleanse the colon thoroughly.

When a cold or other ailment has again clogged the system, syrup of figs will soon set things to right. When appetite fails, tongue is coated white, eyes are a bilious yellow, California syrup of figs will gently stimulate the colon muscles —and the child you used to coax to eat will fairly devour his food. The claims made for California Syrup of Figs are true and it will do the same for you—IF you get genuine CALIFORNIA Syrup of Figs. Don’t accept any substitute. Equally Painful And many a man would rather have a tootli pulled than pay his taxes. Does Your Stomacii Bother?
