zone evening while combins my hair, I
noticed few brown crustiike spots on ny
scalp and. Of course. thought IT was only
q, little dust that had settled there during
the week. So washed my hair thoroughly
but saw that they wouldn't come out. Then
1T the end Of the next week washed my hair
again, and to my astonishment saw not only
those few but many more had come. Then
my head became worse and worse. and NY
scalp started to itch terribly. SO that I could
not sleep nor keep from scratching my head.
"The crustlike places later opened and
made sores which bled. and they also t!ched
something terrible. I tried many remedies
but none helped and instead they made ny
head worse This condition OF my scalp
kept up for 8 month. and then one day l
met . friend and she advised me 10 use
Cuticura Soap and Ointnen: which did.

A Permanent Cure for
Chronic Constipation

Although those may dispute 1t who
have not tried it, yet thousands OF
others, who speak from personal evper-
fence. assert that there is permanent
cure for chronic constipation. Some
testify they were cured for as little as
fifty cents. years ago. and that the
trouble never came back on them, while
others adlni. they took several bottles
before a steady cure was brought
about.
The remedy referred to Is DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. 1t has been on
the market for over quarter OF a
century and has. been popularized on
its merits. by one person telling an
other. The fact that its strongest sup
porters are women and elderly people
the ones most persistently constipated
Makes il certain that the claims re-
garding 1t as a permanent cure for
constipation have not been exagger-
ated.
1t Is not violent like cathartic pills.
