it is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.
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
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-
cious “California Syrup of Figs." Its
action is positive, but gentle Millons
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 sweet
en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.

CANADA'S BOND
10 FARM LABORERS
. Offering 160 Acres to Farm
Hands.
|
Canada today, with the great de
mand that is made upon it for food-
stuffs, finds itself almost in the throes
of a labor famine, A means of
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, it was de-
cided to practically bonus every farm-
hand going giving him
160 acres free as a homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered, to count as
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been a pro-
ducer of grain and It is estimated that
there is a shortage of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av.
erage crop in 1917. This shortage has
been caused many young men
having left the farms to go to war, and
it is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind, to fill their places
on the land at once.
