THE EXCELLENCE OF,SYBUP 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 Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Fig's is manufactured by the California Fig Sybup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding1 the worthless imitations manufactured by other pal ties. The high standing1 of the Cali fornia Fia Sykcp Co. with the medi , cal profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs 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 bowels without irritating- or weaken ing' them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate.
