With many millions of families Syrup of Figs has become the ideal home laxative. The combination is a simple apd wholesome one, and the method of manufacture by the California Fig Syrup Company ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product, which have commended it to the favorable consideration of tha, most emineaLphysicjuns and to the intelligent appreciation of aU

who are well informed in reference to medicinal a

i

1 agents.-

Syrup of Figs has truly a laxative effect and acts gently without in any way disturbing the natural functions and with perfect

freedom from any unpleasant after effects.

In the process of manufacturing, figs are used, as they are pleaif nt to the taste, but the medicinally laxative principles of the combination are obtained from plants known to act most bene-

ficially on the system.
