Free Remedy
 Helps Children

Many a mother has learned of a way of avoiding sickness in her family, es- pecially among the children, by the use of free sample bottle of the fa- nous laxative, Dr. Caldwell's 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.
 This pr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is truly wonderful laxative and especially adapted to the needs of babies and children because it is pleasant to taste and no child will refuse 1t. Then. it Is mild and never gripes. It is all that child's remedy should be, though 1t is a good laxative for the whole family because 1t is effective at all ages. 1t is simply not dynamic like salts. pills and powerful cathartics, which should not be given to children anyway.
 Nine times out of ten when a child complains and you don't know exactly 1axative-its bowles are eonstipated. Syrup Pepsin will correct the trouble. tone up the child and soon it will be we'll again-over night wonderful re- suits have been secured with Syrup Pepsin.
 You can buy it of any druggist at fifty cents or a dollar a bottle, the lat ter being the family size, but you are invited to make test of it first at the doctors expense. Send him your ad- dress today and he will send you free sample bottle direct to Hpur home. Then when satisfied buy 1t of your fav- orite druggist.
 Dr. Caldwell does not feel that the purchase of his remedy ends his obli- gation. He has specialized in stomach, liver and bowel diseases for over forty years and will be pleased to give the reader any advice on the subject free of charge. All are welcome to write him. Whether for the medical advice or the free sarapla address him Dr. W B. Caldwell. fas rei'Eeu building Monticello, ILL

COFFEE HEART
Very Plain In Some People.

A great many people go on suffering
from annoying ailments for q long
time before they can get their own
consent to give up the indulgence
from which their trouble arises.
A gentleman In Brooklyn describes
his experience, as follows:
Il became satisfied some months
sago that owed the palpitation of the
heart from which l suffered almost
daily. to the use of coffee. q had been
n coffee drinker for 80 years. but
found 1t very hard to give up the bev-
serage.
"One day ran across a very sem
eible and straightforward presenta-
tion Of the claims of Postum, and
was SO impressed thereby that 1 con-
cluded to give it trial.
my experience with 1t was unsat-
1sfactory till I learned how it ought
to be prepared-by thorough boiling
for not less than Is or 20 minutes.
After I learned that lesson there was
no trouble.
Postum proved to be a most palat-
able and satisfactory hot beverage,
and I have used it ever since.
The effect on my health has been
most salutary. The heart palpitation
from which I used to suffer SO much,
particularly after breakfast. has dis
appeared and never have return of

from home and drink the old kind of
coffee because Postum Is not served.

DOCKING POLICEMEN FOR
.NOBEYING ORDERS.

It's pretty tough luck for police
man to be docked ten days pay fol
obeying orders, but that's exactly what
has happened right here in Washing
ton. In fact, two policemen have beer
docked ten days pay, or sac each.
Capt. James MulhalI, of the Fifth pre-
cinct, ordered Policemen 4. B. Cole and
{. F. Warfield to paint the interior oI
the station house. They did it, Then
along came the Central Labor Union
with kick. Major Richard Sylvester
Superintendent of the Police Depart
ment, looked into the case and found
Captain Mulhall had no authority to
take policemen off duty and put them
to painting station houses, SO he de-

This was surely. case where JUS
tice was blindfolded and had both
hands tied behind her. Naturally, the
policemen didn't question their cap
tains authority to order them to paint
the station house. Indeed, they were
probably anxious to do it, for it is
easier to WELD paint brush than to
swing club and patrol the street. Be.
sides, the annual competition for pre-
cinct honors was approaching, and the
men were anxious that their building
present creditable appearance. So
they painted.
Now, it happens that the police reg
ulations contain specific instructions to
police captains as to the duties of the
men under them. Each captain is de-
finitely directed to require every police
man to walk his beat every day. In
the face of this, Captain MulhaIl took
Policemen Cole and Warfeld off their
beats, put them to work in the station
house, and kept them there ten days.
Whereupon Cole and Warfeld are
docked
Captain MulhalI has agreed to reim-
burse the policemen for the pay they
have lost, but a just public will not
be satisfied with this settlement of the

admitted that he had taken rooms in
the Hotel Patterson, at No. 50 West
Eorty-sixth street, after he and his wife
had reached a mutual agreement to live
apart. She Is living with her son and
East Thirty-frst street. She said that
no legal separation was contemplated.
II give my word that neither one of
US has engaged lawyers said Rives.
Separation? Divorce? Most GER
tainly not. There Is no suit. Mr.. Rives
has no lawyers and 1 have none," Mrs.
Rives said when she returned to her
home from a shopping tour.
When Reginald B. Rives, the only son.
was asked about the rumors of law
suit, he said he had heard nothing. He
gave his fathers address as the Knick-

The cause Of the separation was not
divulged by the Riveses. Before their
marriage Mrs. Rives was Miss Mary &C.
Bulkeley Talk of a separation was
first circulated in the neighborhood of
their country home in New Hamburg,
near Poughkeepsie. Mr.. Rives said last
night he mad not been In that place in
several months. He seemed to be
greatly surprised that the marital trou-
BILE should have been revealed there.

NEBRASKA PAPER TAKES RAP
AT DISTRICT.

The Omaah Bee, on March %, con,
tanned this delightful bit of misrepre-
,entation concerning the recommenda
tion of District Auditor TweedaIe that
Representative c. o. Lobeck of the Sec
ond Nebraska district, be given a place
on the District Committee because OF
his experience as comptroller of
Omaha:
There is method in Congressman Lo-
beck's ambition to get on the District
OF Columbia Committee. Members of
the District Committee are usually
lavishly baited by the Washington
newspapers with taffy publicity, and
the otiCes read beautifully when re-
printed at home BY seeking a place
on this committee, in which the peo-
pie of Omaha can have no earthly in
terest. Mr.. Lobeck may possibly land
job or two for some hungry Demo
Gratis.
The Washington Times proposed Mr.
Lobeck for membership on the District
Committee three weeks ago Last
week he was indorsed for the position
by Auditor TweedaIe. 1t would be de-
sirable to have him on that committee
because he knows a great deal about
municipal government. His services
are needed by the people of Washing
ton. Being a new member, he has but
slight chance of being put on any of
the so-called important" committees,
but on the District Committee he could
nevertheless render valuable service to
the Nation, which holds half interest
in the District of Columbia.
Little interest or pride in the Ma
tional Capital can be expected, how
ever, from a newspaper whose editor
was a party TO the following letter.
which was sent broadcast over Omaha
when Senator Elmer J. Burkett was
