V Cm 9 B TEE EXCEiENCE OF ST2CP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also ' to the care and skill with which it is ' manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Fig Sybtjp Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing' the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrnp of Fig's is manufactured by the California Fio Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding" the worthless imitations manufactured by other pa ties. The hig-h standing of the Cali fornia Fio Sykup Co. with the medi cal profession, . and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrnp of Fig's has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and towels without irritating or weaken ing them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate. In order to get its beneficial effects, please remember the name of the Company CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. SAN FRANCISCO.

This shows that the druggists themselves regard Scott's of Cod-Liver Oil with Hypophos- prutes of Lime and bod a as the standard, and the purchaser who desires to procure the 44 standard " because he knows it has been of untold benefit, should not for one instant think of taking the risk of using some untried prepa ration. The substitution of something said to be "just as good for a stand ard preparation twenty five years on the market, should not be permitted by the intelligent purchaser. Be sure you get SCOTT'S Emulsion. See that the man and fish are on the wrapper 50c. and Ji.oo, all druggists.
