LAXATIVE FOR
WOMEN FREE

There is great difference in the
purposes to which a laxative should
be put. Tablets and pills, salts, ETC.,
are usually violent purgatlves or
cathartics, and altogether too power
full for the average person.
A woman at all times needs only a
mild laxative-in. fact, none other is
needed by anyone, weak Or strong
though they may be, for the object is
simply to move the bowels, and If a
gentle laxative will do it, what is the
use of violent one?
DR.. CaldWell's Syrup Pepsin has
earned a well-deserved vogue among
women and children and old folks
people who must necessarily be care
full of what they take.
It is a liquid laxative tonic and adj
mittedly the greatest stomach, liver and
bowel remedy before the American peo-
pie. The price is only so cents or 81 a bot;
tie, as it comes in both sizes, and all
druggists sell it. Its pleasant taste and
gentle action make it an ideal remedy for
women in constipation, torpid liver, sour

agreement concerning Morocco, thus
banishing the spectre which for years
has loomed up intermittently and has

\ striking coincidence is found in
the fact that the agreement was
signed at the moment of the arrival

was strong inclination in diplomatic
circles to consider the improvement
Of Franco-German relations as one
of the objects of his visit.
