How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxmive remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of ife quality and excellence Is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which .the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste ; therefore it Is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size ' only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or' having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required. la.-i- ' non. W. H. Kelbaulh.

There are several common sense ways pf obtaining sleep, says the Worlds Work. One of them is the application of cold wet cloths to the back pf the head and neck. This treatment will not be followed by a reaction if it is continued for a number of minutes, and it often works surprisingly well. Another way of solving the problem is to soak the feet in a hot bath until the veins become dilated with blood; or the whole body up to the hips may be given a hot soak. With some people, a two or three minute hip bath is the most effective remedy. Others find help 'in a few slow exercises, which do not jar or excite the system but simply bring some fatigue to the big muscles of the trunk and limbs. Friction of the skin, especially of the lower part of the body, Is another means. g NO TROUBLE To Change from Coffee to Postum. Postum has done a world of good for me, writes an Ills. man.
