GIVE CHILD "SYRUP OF FIGS" IF TONGUE IS COATED If Cross, Feverish, Sick, Bilious, Clean Little Liver, and Bowels. y Children love this "fruit laxative," and nothing else cleanses the tender stomach, liver and bowels so nicely. A child simply will not stop play ing to empty the bowels, and the re sult is, they become tightly clogged with waste, liver get sluggish, stom ach sours, then your little one be comes cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat, sleep or act naturally, breath is bad, system f ull . ofjcold, has sore throat, stomach-ache or diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! See if tongue is coat ed, then give a teaspoomful of "Cali fornia Syrup of Figs," and in a faw hours all the constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the system, and you have a well, playful child again. Millions of mothers give "Califor nia Syrup of Figs" because it is per fectly harmless; children love it, and it never fails to act on the stomach, liver and bowels.
