What to do
in Dyspepsia

Dieting has become a great fad in
America, and just as, years ago, we, as
a nation, ~over-ate, so nov we are under
eating. The one is as bad as the other.
Man needs food and plenty of it to sus-
tain life and to give strength to compete
in this busy world.
1t Is not, however, the fact that you
may eat too much that hurts you, but
that you don't digest what you eat.
And II that results In dyspepsia you will not
cure the trouble by cutting down your food sup
ply. II your digestive organs we're creating the
proper amount OF gastric and peptic juices you
would have no dyspepsia. To cure the disease
GU must create an abundance OF these necessary
Juices.
This can only be done by reliable tonic laxa-
i've. and, as It's name indicates, DR.. Caldwel's
syrup Pepsin contains the very ingredients
leeded to do this. Take 1t regularly for awhile
t%cc0rding TO the explicit directions on each bot
le and you will soon be cured OF dyspepsia and
ny o. the accompanying symptoms such as
leartburn, sour stomach, bloate6 stomach. hives,

ich, etc. Every bottle carries with It an abso-
ute guarantee to do what we claim. II is a gem

Harry Il. KeatOr, a lieutenant in one OF the Chit
lcago companies that fought at the battle OF
Santiago. While IN the wet trenches, and eat
ing the rough food OF a soldier. he contracted
severe dyspepsia and lost weight rapidly. A

FOUND TWO HAT USEFUL
shrswd Scheme by Which CLERK Long
Stood High in Managers
Good Graees.

The head of a city department,
when he would take a look over the
desks in his main office, always
singled out one in the charge of a
young man who attended strictly
to business. His hat was always on
top of his desk, and even if the man
was not there the presence of the
headgear was evidence that he had
stepped out only for a moment. The
owner of the hat stood high in the
managers good opinion.
One day the manager asked an
other clerk "Where is Mr.. Blank ?"

mean?"
''That he keeps two hats here.
One to wear on his head and the
other to blind you with. He has

joke, but from that day each MAJ
