Born in 1839 Dr. Caldwell
Still in His Office Daily
Wonderful vigor of the founder of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
' 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. Where
many live someone is sure to need
it quickly.
