Country f.lfe In Atnoricrt. High Class Druggists AND — OTHERS. The better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity, who devote their lives to the welfare of their fellow faen in supplying the best of remedies and purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians’ prescriptions and scientific formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but always under original or officinal names and they never seil false brands, or imitation medicines. They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a fivt*class pharmacy and the finest and best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances. The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil: They all know that Syrup of Figs ig an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package. They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the immense demand for it. imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to he found, hero and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles of tiie profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order tomakea larger profit. Ssuch preparations sometimes have the name—“ Syrup of Figs”—or ”I’ig Svrup” and of some piratical concern, or fictitious (ig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of tho Company —California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on tin* front of the package. The imitations should lie rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes off on a customer a preparation under the name of "Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup,” which does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Cm printed on the front of the package, lie is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has l*en so unfortunate as to enter his establishment,, whether it lie large or small, for if the dealer rzsorts to misrepresentation and and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of physicians’ prescriptions, and should lie avoided by every one who values health anti happiness. Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand for our excellent remedy entirelv through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, hut as exceptions exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return any imitation which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company— California Fig Svrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of every thing in his line at reasonable prices.
