THE CHILDREN ENJOY
Life out of door and out of the frames which they play and the enjoy
ment which they receive aud the effort which they make, contra the
greater part of that healthful development which ia o eascnllal to their
happineaa when grown. When a laxativo I needed the remedy which ia
given to them to cleanse and awecten and strengthen the internal organ
on which it act, should be such a physicians would sanction, because Its
component part are known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free from
every objectionable quality. The one remedy which pliy.lcian and parents,
well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little otic enjoy,
because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and It beneficial effect, i
Syrup of Fig -and for the same reason it i tho Ouly laxative which should
be used by fathers and mothera.
Byrup of Kig is the only remedy which act gently, pleasantly and
naturally without griping, Irritating, or nnuacatlng and which clcauaca the
aystem effectually, without producing that constipated habit which rcattlt
from the use of tlt old-time cathartic and modern imitation, and ngalnst
which the children ahottld be ao carefully guarded. If you would have them
grow to in an hood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do nut give
them medicines, when medicine are not needed, and wlten uattire need
aasiatance In the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, plca.ant and
gentle Syrup of Fig.
It quality i due not only to the excellence of the combination of the
laxative principles of plant with pleaant aromatic syrup and juice, but
also to our original method of manufacture and a you valuo the health of
the little ones, do not accept any of the subatittite which unacrupiiloii deal
er sometimes offer to increase their profit. The genuine article may be
bought anywhere of all reliable druggist at fifty cent per bottle. 1'lc.uo
