It's para. wholesome, sweet to the taste and weet In your chHd's llttls stomach. It builds tip and strengthens weak, puny, underweight children, makes them eat heartily, brings the roses back to their cheeks, makes them playful, energetic, fall of life. And no bilious, headachy, constipated, feverish, fretful baby or child ever failed to respond to the gentle Influ ence of California Fig Syrup on their little bowels. It starts lazy bowels quick, cleans them out thoroughly, tones and strengthens them so they continue to act normally, of their own accord.

Chemical of No Value in Preservinf Flower Putting cut flowers In a bath of as pirin or other chemicals In an effort to prolong their life is useless, ac cording to experiments conducted at the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research at Tonkers, N. X. The experiments showed that none of fif ty different chemicals, used In the hope of Increasing the life of cut flowers, was noticeably effective. Po tassium permanganats did prevent de cay of the stems of phlox snd asters but It did not make the floral parts last any longer. Other chemicals In some esses actually caused Injury to the flowers. Low temperatures were great help In keeping rosea, carnations and coreopsis, but the cold did not greatly benefit either cosmos or dahl ias.
