Of next importance, then, is how to treat it when it cornea. Dr. Caldwell always waa -in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin, ia a mild veg etable compound. It can not harm the most delicate aystem and is nol a habit forming preparation. Syrup Pepsin ia pleasant-tasting, ana youngsters love It. It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written us to that effect. Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did not believe they were good for hu man beings to put into their ByB tema. In a practice of 47 yeara he never saw any reason for their use when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just as promptly, more cleanly and gently, without griping end harm to the system. Keep free from constipation! It robs your strength, hardens your arteries and brings on premature old age. Do not let a day go by without a bowel movement. Do not sit find hope, but go Lo a drugyiit and get one of the generous bottld of Syrup Pepsin. Take the prop dos that nignt and by mornimyui vnii reel axe a mriercnc person. Get a bottle today, at any drnt ntore and ohservc these three iuIh of health: Keep the head cool, tit feet warm, tne uoweis open.
