' THE MODERN BEAUTY
Thrives on good food and
sunshine, with plenty of exe cise
in the open air. Her form glows'
and her face glows with its
beauty. If her system needs the 1
cleansing action of a laxative
remedy she uses the gentle and
pleasant Syrup of figs, manufac-i
tured by the California Fig
[Syrup Co., only. j .
TliE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due nut ou»y to the originality and
Simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs4s manufactured
by the Califoilnia Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist, one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. 'l'he high standing of the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of tiie excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it "cts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it docs not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company
