An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Btbup or Fies, mauufactured by the
CAUroimiA Fiq Sybup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
Is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
aro used, as they are pleasant to tho
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy aro obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Via Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the ful 1 name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.
