FREE REMEDY HELPS CHILDREN

Many a mother has learned of a way of avoiding sickness in her fam lily, especially among the children, by the use of free sample bottle of the famous laxative. Dr. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin. This offer of the doctors to send free sample bottle has been re- sponded to by thousands of women in all parts of America.
 Dr. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin is a truly wonderful laxative and espe- cially adapted to the needs of babies and children because it is pleasant to taste and no child will refuse it. Then, it is mild and never gripes. It is all that a child's remedy should be, though it is good laxative for the whole family because it is effective at all ages. It is not dynamic like salts, pills and powerful cathartics, which should not be given to chill dren under any circumstances.

evidently the new dress uniform had
been carefully brushed and laid out
to be worn at the ball that evening;
the sudden receipt OF this order had
caused the owner to depart hastily In
his service dress, vigorously express

servant, now enjoying liberty below

masters things.
This knowledge was the straw

myself within a mirror hanging upon

upon the stairs-surely they would
have supposed the very devil himself

hour to get myself tolerably clean,

that with good luck should run the

Just as prepared to step forth a
new thought occurred TO me-who was

able, how could account for my pres

I turned over the mass Of papers lying
before me on the table. They were
mostly accounts and detailed orders
about which / cared nothing, but
finally my search was rewarded by
the discovery of a recent army list.
