Keeping children well Is easy
symptoms of childho<xi's ills.
If little ones are fretful, pale,
languid, won't eat and want to be
mothered: when they often get colds
and sore throat, and seem feverish,
depend upon it the bowels are slug
gish. You notice unpleasant breath
when you kiss them—sure sign of
constipation and a sour stomach.
Give a little California Fig Syrup
to purify the system and see how
quickly it restores strength, appetite
and Joyous spirits. It arts without
pain and gently cleanses which
causes feverislxness. sours the diges
tion and keeps the little one sickly
and backw ard.
If you suspect measles or some
other children's disease, give a dcse
of California Fig Syrup without de
lay. The doctor will praise your
forethought. California Fig Syrup is
the finest laxative in the world for
children. It suits them perfectly
ind they love Its delicious taste. For
a child who Is habitually constipat
ed there is no othec remedy to
equal California Fig Syrup for coax
ing the bowels back to healthy reg
ularity. If you have a child who is
troublesome in tills way try Califor
nia Fig Syrup. Get a bottle today.
All drug stores have it.
California Fig Syrup has been
trusted by the World's mothers for
over 50 years. That's why the word

Headquarters troop of the Twelfth \
cavalry, which for the past month
has been at Fort Ringgold in an
nual target practice, arrived here'
Sunday after a four-day march

cedes. and San Benito.
Regimental Commander W. T.
Johnston was highly gratified at the
excellent record made by the or
ganization in target practice, he
said. Every man qualified on a dif
ficult course. Final results of the
qualifications resulted in the fol
lowing aassiflcation: Twenty ex
pert riflemen 20 sharphsooters 24
marksmen.
This will mean additional qualifi
cation pay for the men so qualified
at the rate of IS per month for ex

Dorsett May Talk
5-County District
For Kenedy Road
(8peclal to The Herald)
RAYMONDVILLE. June 8— Ad
visability of calling Judges of five
interested counties together for dis
musaion of forming a five-county
district to finance a highway
through Kenedy county is being
considered by R. S. Dorsett. Willacy
county Judge.
Judge Dorsett says he is con
vinced this is the most feasible
method of opening a road through
Kenedy county following a recent
appearance before the state highway
commission.
This highway would connect with
the Willacy county north and south
road and provide a direct outlet to
Houston. San Antonio and other
upstate points. The Willacy county
road is paved from the south coun
ty line to Raymondviile and grading
and structures were completed sev
eral months ago from Ravmondvllle
north to the Kenedy county line.
