How to Cure
 Constipation
Simple Home Remedy That is Safe
 and Pleasant.

Few people escape constipation Catch- ing cold, over ating, worry, lack of ex- ercise, failure to answer promptly the calls of nature. diseased weakened system or strong medicines may cause it.. The too common practice of taking salts, or pills or some such violent cathartic has always done more harm than good. They make the bowels act quickly and violently simply because they irritate them and leave them in a worse condi- tion than before.
 What is needed is a mild easy herb laxative, that gives regular daily move ments in all cases, yet does not pain or gripe, and which will strengthen the bowels and tone up the system instead of depicting it.
 Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin taken at night before going to bed will bring an easy, pleasant, natural movement in the morning even in the most obstinate eases and without any bad effects. No pain, no grpe and it. is so safe and pleasant to take; mothers give 1t to their babies with splendid results. It Is an aid to di- sestion and tones up the system as well as cures bowel trouble Dr. l.. E.. Covey, Savannah, Tenn. writes: 'I get better results from 1t than any Pepsin I
 ever used" Dr. T. Jones' Osgood,
 Mo-, says: "I consider Dr. Caldwell s Syrup Pepsin the best of all laxatives' ' Mrs. Almon Willis, Jamaica, Vt, says: 1T
 truly believe 1t saved my little boys life"
 Rev A. J. Fletcher, Rutherford, Tenn.
 says q am 80 years old and your Syrup Pepsin has cured me of dyspepsia and bowel trouble.''
 w. D. Jackson, Burns Station, Tenn, says: 'T was afflicted with constipation and dyspepsia for nine years, and found no relief until I used Dr. Caldwell s Syrup Pepsin." All druggists sell 1t at 5oc and s1 per bottle.
 We are glad to send a free sample 10 any reader of this paper who has never used 1t and will give it fair trial. Write today to Pepsn Syrup Co.,, SB Caldwell : Bfdg.. Monticello. Ill.

MR. M'coRNIcK's INTERVIEW.

If there is a conservative, level

Cornick, the head OF the banking house
which bears his name, answers that
description. In an interview with The
Herald published yesterday, Mr. Nc
COrnick told OF the remarkable race Mr.
Bryan is making. and said that the
trend of sentiment throughout the east
Is very strongly toward the Democrat
ic candidate. Be it remembered that
Mr.. Mccormick Is lifelong Republican.
and that his associations are largely
With men who. like himself. are nat
urally affiliated with the Republican
party His Judgment was formed after
an extended trip covering important
cities all along the way between Salt
Lake and New York. so that he has
gathered his opinion from no isolated
section. and principally from men who
have great business and financial in
terests.
This opinion OF the situation has the
merit of disinterestedness and it con-
firms the reports from all over the
country. II comes as near conceding
the probability of Bryan's election as
could be expected from a Republican:
and il certainly affords no comfort to
those sanguine partisans here in Utah
VINO have been telling the people that
Taft will have an easy victory. The
drift Is all toward Bryan. and it grows
stronger as election day approaches.
Not only is that true of the east. but ii
is also true right here in Utah. Where
as II seemed improbable at the begin
ming of the campaign that Mr. Bryan
could carry Utah. the plumbers Of the
Republicans the widening breach be-
tween the Smoot Republicans and the
American" Republicans, the resent
ment of the independent voters against
the manipulations OF the Smoot ma

Democratic cause so much that the
party managers are confident they have
More than a fighting chance to give
Bryan the electoral vote Of the state.

MALL STREET "RUsINEss -

There has been so much said and
written about Wall streets traps for
the unwary that the gamblers them
selves have taken alarm. That the
laws of the state OF New York are vio-
lated many times every minute Of the
day while the stock exchange is in SEES
sion is notorious. yet there are no pros
ecutions even when the facts are
brought to light when some rascal gets
in over his head and a crash results
Governor Hughes has spent two years
in warfare upon the race track bookies
but he has given no sign that he even
disapproves OF the different degrees of
larceny which the Wall street broker
calls business
The Wall Street Journal is afraid that
"dema gogues" will make a serious i'm
preston upon public opinion, and adj
vances the claim that only 10 per cent
Of the business" is robbery. Like the
Republican party in the matter of the
tariff, IL would have the friends of
Wall street do the reforming. After
eANi -'AoA AOAl VI SANTA re re-
bate fame; the same Paul Morton who
was convicted and then granted i'm
munity by order of the president. who
recognizes the legitimate character of
the stock exchange, the Journal saws:
Let US by sane methods remove the
10 per cent OF evil. but let us not de-
stroy the 80 per cent of good in order
to get rid Of the 10 per cent that repre-
sents abuse
That Is ladylike way of putting it
Let us tell the thieves that they must
not steal any more instead of pros
ecuting them for the crimes already
committed Let us make a pretense of
purging ourselves before the. people rise
in their wrath and put on the CLAIMS
Let us take such reasonable measures
as seem adapted to do away or reduce
such INSCRIPTIONS gambling as exists"
II the Wall Street Journal or anv of
the alleged 80 per cent of honest men
engaged in business on the stock ex-
change should cause warrants to be is
sued for the 10 per cent who habitual-
" violate the law, some confidence
might be placed in their professions. II
Is greatly to be feared, however. that
large proportion of the 80 per cent &C.
casionally, if not quite often, step
aside from the paths of virtue and rec
utude and trim the suckers with as
much neatness and dispatch as the
criminals who are said
to constitute only 10 per cent of the
whole.
Wall street is very much against Mr.N
Bryan i'm the present campaign, and the
of Governor Hughes as to the
crooks would seem to apply with pc
culiar force.
