That the laxative habit can be contracted at the age of six? And that the wrong laxa tive can give children chronic constipation before their tenth birthday? You wouldn't give your children a powerful headache powder! You shouldn't give them a violent cathartic. Parents Aroused At Last! Doctors urge the use of a liquid laxative for children; preferably one with senna. A liquid laxative can be regu lated as to dose. The natural laxative action of eenna does not weaken the bowels. Druggists report increasing sales of liquid laxatives. Mothers are rapidly discover ing the advantage of the liquid form. Thousands of cases of ill-health and half-health in children are being clenred-up by stopping all use of laxa tives of adult strength. Give Them a Chance! The preparation most favored for child use is Cali fornia Syrup of Figs. It is a fruity syrup with the right amount of senna for gentle stimulation of a child's bowels. It gives the right kind of help. If the bowels aren't moving regularly and thoroughly, don't give any medicine that drains the system dry. Give a liquid senna preparation like California Syrup of Figs. A little every day, and reduce the dose each day. At the end of one week stop. You'll be surprised how long it will be before the bowels need any further help. It may be months. Be sure you get the real California Syrup of Figs, with "California" on the label. If you get the right preparation, and use it the right way, you can absolutely end all worry over constant sluggish spells, bilious, attacks, constipation. All druggists keep California Syrup of Figs, ready for use. It is highly recommended for regulating children, and to undo the mischief done by habit-forming laxatives.
