Look back at your childhood days,
tlonicniber tho "doso" mother Insisted
on cantor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
gainst taking them.
With our children lt'a different.
Mothers who cllnc to tho old form of
phyBlc simply don't renllzo what thoy
do. Tho children's revolt Is well-found-,
ed. Their tender llttlo "insldea" aro
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, glvo only dell
elous "California Syrup of Figs." Its
action Is positive, hut gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless "fruit
laxatlvo" handy; they know children
lovo to tako It; that It nover falls to
clean tho liver and bowels and Bwcct
en the stomuch, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-

Onions Are Cheaper.
Mrs. Hetty Green on hor Boventy
eighth birthday anniversary told a re
porter that sho put more faith In on
ions than In doctors. An onion was
her reclpo for colds, coughs, Insomnia,
serves and many othor maladies.
"An onion," sho added, "is a bettor
friend to your pockctbook than a doc

"A young lady was studying to be
nurse, nnd she said ono day to a
popular surgeon:
"'What did you oporato on Mr.
Sods for?'
" 'For $3,000 tho surgeon answered.
"The young nurse smiled.
'"No,' she said; I mean what did
he have?'
"Three thousand dollars,' was tho
surgeon's reply."
WONDERED WHY.
Found the Answer Was "Coffee."
Many pale, sickly persons wonder
for years why they have to suffer bo,
and eventually dlscovor that the drug
caffeine In coffee li tho main cause
of tho trouble.
"I was always very fond of coffeo
and drank It every day. I never had
much flesh and often wondered why I
was always so pale, thin and weak.
"About five years ago my health
completely broko down and I was con
fined to my bed. My stomach was In
such condition that I could hardly take
sufficient nourishment to sustain life.
"During this tlmo I was drinking
coffee, didn't think I could do without
It
"After awhilo I camo to tho conclu
sion that cdffco was hurting mo, and
decided to glvo It up and try Postum.
When it was made right dark and
rich I soon becatno very fond of It
"In one wcok I began to feel better.
I could eat moro and sleep bettor. My
sick headaches woro les3 frequent, and
within flvo months I looked nnd felt
like a new being, headacho spells en

"My health continued to Improve
and today I am well and strong, weigh

to tho llfe-glvlng qualities of Postum."

Commissioner Hurman. Total number
of Inspections made during 1913 wns
13,029, as compared to 10,671 under

Marked Interest In Agriculture.
So Interesting is becoming tho study
of agriculture In the state that Charles
Epperson of Fairfield writes to the
state board of agriculture as follows:
"This teacher, Boehr, is a corker. He
aces most overythlng for text books
in his school work. He uses Imple
ment manufacturers' catalogues, al
manacs, seeds, seed catalogues, plo
(tures of horses, tho stato fair premium
