that not even the rich can rrcbas

munications received from La Bar
tone le Beauvereer, by Mrs. War
,run' MeCocibe, president of the
American committee of the free, milk
for France fund, and of which Mad
ame La Marechal Foch Is the presi
dent of the Paris committee.
In her letter, one of several , re
ceived in the same pouch- from
French sources. La Barrone de
Beauverger says:
Milk in Paris habecome a food
most rare, even for sick people and
children for whom it is entirely kept.
Even condensed milk has begun to
be. absolutely scarce. This scarcity
has become very disturbing and ev
en the children of the rich suffer.
The ecstatic smile of the poor moth- Useful and directly necessary work
dren from dying from! hunger, is in
itself more than sufficient to reward
us for our effoits.' j
From Dr. H. Mery. the professor
of the faculty of medicine of Paris
and connected with the Children's
hospital, the situation is commented
upon in a letter, in which Dr. Mery
"The s hoi 1 age of! milk is so great
that the hospitals are ordered to pre
scribe for economical not medical
reasons, a water diet and vegetable
soup diet.' I i; '
H-e adds: "We have been compel!
ed to diminish the ml.k rations or
infants "from one to; two years old.
with the Jesuits thai these children
diminish in weight, and the infant
mortality Increases day by day."
Dr. Mery concludes his letter by
ravine: 'When you ! thank in our
name the American committee of
free milk for France for all they
have already donef ' p'ay attract
their attention to the urgency of
their continued help in this time in
our history, when the milk short
age is greater than ever and the
mortality is being daily augmented
on this apcount." i
And In a later letter from the
French committee it. was stated
that at a meeting held by a com
mittee of doctors to try and strength
en the children of the ruined prov
inces, who have suffered much from
want and insufficient food. Dr. Mery
and some other doctor said that

A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
take the time from play to empty
their bowels, which become clogged
up with waste, liver gets sluggish,
stomach sour. !
Look at the tongue. Mother! If
coated, or your child Is listless, cross,
feverish, breath bad. restless,
doesn't eat heartily, full or cold or
has sore throat or any other child
ren's ailment, give a teaspoonful or
"California Syrup of Figs." then
don't worry, because It Is perfectly
harmless, and in a few hours all this
constipation poison, sour bile and
fermenting waste will gently move
out of the bowels, and you hajre a
well, playful child again. A thor
ough "inside cleansing" is- ofttimes
all that Is necessary. It should be
the first treatment given in any sick
ness. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for a bottle or
"California Syrup of Figs." which
has full directions for babies, child
ren of all ages and for grown-ups
plainly printed on the bottle. Look
carefully and see that it is made by
tbe "California Fig Syrup Company."
