Indiana Mother Solves Problem “XTY little daughter, Dorothy, IVT caused me many anxious moments,” says Mrs. S. Hill, 746 Woodlawn Ave., Indianapolis. ‘‘She was bilious, weak, didn’t want to play and had very little appetite. “She suffered "from constipation until a friend persuaded me to get some California Fig Syrup for her. Fig Syrup helped Dorothy remarkably. She is now strong; full of life; has a good appetite and digestion; is quite the picture of health as you can see.” For over 50 years, California Fig Syrup has been helping bilious, headachy, weak, constipated babies and children. Doctors by thousands recommerd this vegetable product. Children love its flavor. It acts gently to open the bowels in colds or children’s diseases. It cleanses a child’s system harmlessly and in a hurry. Bowels become regular with its use and remain so, because they are toned and strengthened by this wonderful combination of pure fig syrup and elixir of senna. Look for the name California when buying. That marks the genuine.
