II Msans Health
For The Child

The careful mother, who watches close
" the physical peculIarities of her chill
dren, will soon discover that the most
important thing in connection with
child's constant good health is to keep
the bowels regularly open. Sluggish
bowels will be followed by loss of appe-
tite. restlessness during sleep, irrfta-
bility and dozen and one similar evil
dences of physical disorder.
At the first sign of such disorder give
the child a teaspoonful OF DR.. Caldwelps
Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and
repeat the dose the following night If
necessary-more than that will scarcely
be needed You will find that the child
will recover its accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.

Kidney Trouble
Is Very Deceptive
few Realize They're Affected TiD
Danger Point is Reached-Dr.
Derby's Kidney Pills Work
Wonders-Sample Free!

Kidney disease is much more common
than most people imagine. Many sufferers
do not know what's ailing then-until the
trouble becomes serious. Some triling af-
lection may run into the dread diabetes,
dropsy or Bright's disease before one realizes
there's anything wrong with his kidneys.
Usually the most noticeable symptoms
which first appear are far from the seat OF
the trouble, and the sufferer mistakes the
nature of his ailment. Dull headaches or
nervousness, for instance, he never thinks of
as signs of diseased kidneys.
Even the aching back and sides, rheuma-
tisIn. pains or twitching in groins or limbs,
sore, inhaned muscles, he may consider IN
dications of some other trouble. Unnaturally
colored or cloudy urine, too frequent or too
scanty urination, burning sensation, are of
course readily recognized as symptoms of
such disorders.
Because of the deceptive and dangerous
character of these ailments, if you suspect
your kidneys are diseased, lose no time in
beginning treatment. The best possible
remedy for you is DR.. Derby's Kidney Pills.
They are quite different from anything else
in the market. They act in two ways
cleanse the clogged kidneys of their poison
Gus impurities, strengthen them so they
