Hurry, Mother! Remove poi
sons from little stomach,
liver, bowels.
Give "California Syrup of
Figs" if cross, bilious or
feverish.
No matter what ails your child, a
gentle, thorough laxative should al
ways be the first treatment given.
If your little one is out-of-sorts,
half-sick, isn't resting, eating and
acting naturally look, Mother! see
if tongue is coated. This is a sure
sign that the little stomach, liver
and bowels are clogged with waste.
When cross, irritable, feverish, stom
ach sour, breath bad or has stomach
ache, diarrhoea, sore throat, full of
cold, give a teasyoonful of "Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs," and in a few
hours all the constipated poison, un
digested food and sour bile gently
moves out of the little bowels with
out griping, and you have a well,
playful child again.
Mothers can rest easy after giv
ing this harmless "fruit laxative,"
because it never fails to cleanse the
little one's liver and bowels and
sweeten the stomach and they dear
ly love its pleasant taste. Full di
rections for babies, children of all
ages and for grown-ups printed on
each bottle.

The hearing of various cases of

emphasized the need of legislation.
An examination of the cases re

who works in a Farnam street res

victed in police court on charges of
violating the liquor laws.
Many of these sureties are exempt
