An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy.
Syrup of Vigs, manufactured by the
Califokjjia Fia Sykup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting1
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening1 laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling1 colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling1 one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. . Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening1
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
.-jure used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
: remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
'.known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.
