Caldwell of Mon Uccllo, 111., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many constipated infants and children had to be kept constant ly "stirred up" and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipa tion waa the cause of nearly all children's little ills, he did not be lieve that a sickening "purge" or "physic" every day or two wae necessary. In Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he discovered a laxative which regulates the bowels. A single dose will establish natural, healthy bowel movement for weeks at a time, even if the child was chron ically constipated. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin not only causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, It is often months be fore another dose is necessary. Be sides, it Is absolutely harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish, bilious, sick child glad ly takes it.
