The Medical and surgical reporter . baxative the CaUfornia Fig Syrup Company manufactured, from the juiceof True Alexandria Senna and an excellent combination of car-minative aromatics with pure white sugar, the laxative which is now so well and favorably known under thetrade name of Syrup of Figs. With the exceptional facilities, resulting from long experience and entiredevotion to the one purpose of making our product unequalled^ this demand for the perfect laxative is met b\) Our jVlethod of extracting the laxative properties of Senna without retaining the griping principle found in all otherpreparations or combinations of this drug. This method is known only to us, and all efforts to produce cheapimitations or substitutes may result in injury to a physicians reputation, and will give dissatisfaction to thepatient; hence, we trust that when physicians recommend or prescribe Syrup of Figs (Syr. Fici Cal.) theywill not permit any substitution. The name Syrup of Figs was given to this laxative, not because inthe process. of /Vlanufacturing a few figs are used, but to distinguish it from all other laxatives, and the United States Courts have decidedthat we have the exclusive right to apply this name to a laxative medicine. The dose of Syi^UP OF FIGS as a laxative is one or two teaspoonfuls given preferably before breakfast or at bed time. From one-half toone tablespoonful acts as a purgative, and may be repeated in six hours if necessary. Syrup of Figs is never sold in bulk. It is put up in two sizes to retail at fifty cents and $i.(Xi p^ibottle, and the name Syrup of Figs as well as the name of the California Fig Syrup Company is printed : ithe wrappers and labels of every bottle.
