FAMILY DOCTOR
LEARNED THIS ABOUT
CONSTIPATION
Dr Caldwell loved people. II ia
years of practice convinced him
many were ruining their health by
careless selection of laxatives. Il
determined to write a harmless pre
scription which would Ret at the
cause of constipation, and correct it
Today, the prescription he wrote
In 1885 is the world's most popular
laxative ! He prescribed mixture
of herbs and other pure ingredients
now known as Dr. Caldwell's Sytup
Pepsin, in thousands of cases where
bad breath, coated tongue, gas,
headaches, biliousness and lack of
appetite or energy showed the
bowels of men, women and children
were sluggish. It proved successful
in even the most obstinate cases;
old folks liked it for it never gripes;
children liked its pleasant taste.
All drugstores today have Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in bottles,.

la a discouraged tone. "Oh, here' a
little bit of a column about the Elks'
May day fete and beauty pageant.'
She aettled herself to read with s

"Yon may skip that," said her fn

Ilia daughter alghed resignedly. "1

She read patiently, In a low cleat

wander, the memory of her father,

to assist In preparing ber to win the

"And this tn spit of the frank
warning of President Coolldg that
the United State will regard any
such move with extreme disfavor,'"
finished Ginger, with a flourish.
