' Millions now use his famous prescription Physicians know that good health depends largely upon proper digestion and elimination and that much sickness results from constipation. No one knows this Letter than the "family" doctor, the general practioner. T-nR. W. B. Caldwell of Mon I 1 ticello, Illinois, was and is a family doctor. The whole human body, not any small part of it, was his practice. More than half his "calls" were on women, children and babies. They are the ones most often 8ick. But their illnesses were usually of a minor nature colds, fevers, head aches, biliousness and all of them required first a thorough evacuation.They were constipated. Dr. Caldwell in the course of 40 years' practice, for he was grad uated from Hush Medical College back in 1875, had found a good deal of success in such cases with a prescription of his own contain ing simple laxative herbs with pepsin. In 1892 he decided to use this formula in the manufac ture of a medicine to be known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and in that year the preparation was first placed on the market. The picture of Dr. Caldwell that ap pears on the package was taken in that year. The preparation immediately had as great a success in the drug stores as it previously had in the doctor's private practice. Today the third generation is using it- Mothers are giving it to their children who were given ' it by their mothers. Every second of the working day someone some where is going into a drug store to buy it, for l)r. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is selling at the rate of over 6 million bottles a year. Its great success is based on merit, on repeated buying, on one satisfied user telling another. There are thousands of homes in this country that are never with out a bottle of Syrup Pepsin, and the formulator of that prescrip tion is-fortunately living to see its wonderful success. Women, children and elderly people are especially benefitted by Dr. Caldwell's Synip Pepsin. While it is promptly effective on the most robust constitution and in the most obstiqateicases, it is mild and gentle in its action and does not cause griping and strain. Containing neither opiates por narcotics, it is safe for the tiniest baby and children like it and take it willingly. Every drug store sells Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin. Keep a bottle in your home.
