Grand JurY Work.

There is one sure way to get mar. interested in the proceedings of tn" criminal courts" said the gray haired man, and that is to put him on n grand jury. Just let a man once serve the public In that capacity and thence forward he becomes an indefatigable student of the criminal records. That result of his experience Is, in a way, inevitable. Naturally any man with a spark of curiosity about him is anx- ious to know the outcome of the --ials of the persons he has found indict- ments against. In following these cases through the various courts he ac- quires an interest in judicial proceed. ings that really never dies."-New York Sun.

and his undertaking. which If IL is
successful may develop into a pa

age of the person reading this, DR..

has practiced medicine, and the one
thing that forced itself on his mind
was the urgent need of the human
body for something that would scien-
tihcally regulate the digestive or
gans--the stomach, liver and bowels.
These years Of study developed Dr.
Caldwclrs Syrup Pepsin. now recognized
as the national safeguard OF health In
twenty years IL has been gaining friends.
for II Is today as IL always has been, the
best laxative tonic for women. children
and old folks. for these especially need a
gentle safe laxative tonic that is sure In
results and does not grippe.
II Is because the doctor has watched Its
good work for all these years and believes
In the merit OF his remedy that he offers
TO send free trial bottle at his own ex-
pense to anyone who writes him. You
have simply to send your name and ad-
dress. On the strength OF what these
free trial bottles have done-and thou
sands have been given away-Dr. Cald-

used than any other American remedy for
