1t has always been a nooted question
Just what to do with an ailins child, for
mothers disagree and few doctors spe-
cialiZe in it. But this much is certain,
that in the majority of cases faulty
bowel movement is at the bottom of
the trouble.
The first thing, then. to do with a
complaining child is to give 1t a laxa-
tive, not a mere fruit-stew or such
thing, but a genuine, scientific laxative.
Many are recommended, but few are
found worthy. Among the latter none
stands out more prominently than DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which mothers
in all parts of the country have used
for a generation.
1t can be obtained of any druggist at
fiftv cents and one dollar bottle. No
child will refuse it, as it is not a bad
tasting and violent cathartic pill, but a
mild. gentle, non-grtping liquid. 1t has
