A PENALTY OF AGE

The tendency Of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re-
epcnsible for the constipated condition
of most elderly people. The wear Of
years impairs the action Of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and dras-
tic in their action and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild.
yet positively effective remedy, and
n that is recommended by physi-
clans as we'll as by thousands who
have used 1t, is the compound Of sim
pie laxative herbs with pepsin pre-
scribed by DR.. w. B. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug
gists everywhere under the name of
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. DIR.
Caldwell wants everyone troubled with
constipation to try Syrup Pepsin and
will send a trial bottle, free of charge.

The Msvino Sidewalk.

New York is the first city in the
world TO adopt the moving platform as
an essential part Of it's transit system.
The public service commission of New
York city has laid ont a route for this
novel methed Of transportation under
Thirty fourth street, from Second ave
nue. to Ninth avenue. This is one of
the busiest parts Of the city. In a space
OF nEe mile the route crosses seven
north and south rapid transit lines and
10 street car lines. The moving plat
form is by no means an experiment.
Visitors to the worlds fair at Chicago
in 1898 will recall the one that occupied
the long pier on the lake front. and
that carried 1900 600 persons without
an accident. The moving platform usu-
ally consists of three continuous lines
OF platforms OF rubber covered steel
plates. The first lire runs at a speed
OF three miles an hour, the second at
Six miles. n the third at nine miles
AN hour. The first two platforms are
called stepping platforms, and he third.
which is considerably wider. is pro-
vided with seats. The, great
advantage OF the moving platform is its
enormous capacity. which is far great
er than that of any other form of trans
1t and makes it an ideal system for
operation where traffic is greatly con.
geSted.
