Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the “dose" mother insisted
on—castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children It’s different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don’t realize what they
do. The children’s revolt is well-found
ed. Their tender little “insides" are
Injured by them.
If your child’s stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli*
clous “California Syrup of Figs.” Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless “fruit
laxative’’ handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sw^eet-
en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of “California Syrup of Figs," which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

addition to the offer of services in case
of war. various demands which were
held to be fundamentals in safeguard
ing the rights of workers in war time
as well as in peace. Militarism was
protested against. It was held that
industrial service should be deemed
equally meritorious as military ser
vice; that service should conform to
trade union standards and that organ
ized laljor should have representation
on all agencies determining and admin
istering policies of national defense
and controlling publicity.
The sfatenit'iit was drafted by the
executive council of the .American

it to the delegates gathered here in
response to a call from Samuel Gomp-

FOOD PRICE ADVANCE
OF NINETEEN PER CENT.
Washington.—Retail food prices in
, the United States advanced 19 per
I cent in the year ending January 15 as
shown in statistics prepared by the
Bureau of Labor statistics. The in
crease was greater than for the three
year previous combined. The four
years’ gain was 30 per cent- Every
food staple except coffee and tea ad
vanced during the year. Onions and
potatoes led with increases of more
hau 50 per cent.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
' blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con-
j gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick*
I ening headache.
Cascarets immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, tnke the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret to-night will surely

I Says Corns Lift Out !
Without Any Pain
Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corfl can shortly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
will apply on the corn a few drops of
freezone, says a Cincinnati authority.
At little cost one can get a small bot
tle of freezone at any drug store, which
will positively rid one’s feet of everj
corn or callus without pain or sore
ness or the danir«*r of infection.
This new drug is an ether cDuipound.
and dries the moment it is applied and
does not inflame or even irritate the
surroun»ling skin. Just think: You
can lift off your corns and .‘aHuses
now without a bit of pain or soreness.
If your druggist hasn't freezone he can
easily get a small bottle for you from
his whole.sale drug house.—adv.
