LgOK 1ST CHILD'S TONGUE IF SICK CROSS, FEVERISH When constipated or bilious give " Calif omia Syrup of Figs."

Look at the tongue, niotherl If coated, it is a sure &lgn that your little one's stomach, liver and bowels need a gtntle, thorough cleansing at once. When peevish, cross, listless, pale, doesn't sleep, doesn't eat or act naturally, or is feverish. stomach sour, breath bad: has stomach-ache, sore throat, diarrhoea, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs." and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of its little bowels without griping, and you have a well, playful child again. Tou needn't coax sick children to take this harmless "fruit laxative"; they love its delicious taste, and it always makes them feel splendid. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup, of Figs," which has directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-urs plainly on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold here. To be sure you get the genuine, ask to see that it is made by "California Fig Syrup Company." Refuse any other kind with contempt. Adv.
