Advertisements from 1911:

MAPLEINE FLAVORING - Use it like lemon and vanilla. A delicious syrup is made by dissolving white sugar in water and adding Mapleine. Grocers sell Mapleine; if not, send 35c for 2 oz. bottle and recipe book. Write to Dept. H, CRESCENT MFG. CO., Seattle, Wash.

For a disordered liver, take Garfield Tea, the Herb laxative. All druggists.
