THE SAFE LAXATIVE
FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE

Most elderly people are more or
less troubled with a chronic, per-
sistent constipation, due largely to
lack Of sufficient exercise. They ex-
perience diff Guilty in digesting even
light food, with consequent belching
of stomach gases, drowsiness after
eating. headache and feeling of lassi-
tude and general discomfort.
Doctors advise against cathartics and
violent purgatives of every kind, rec
ommending a mild, gentle laxative
tonic, like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
to effect relief without disturbing the
entire system.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
perfect laxative, easy in action, GER
tain in effect and, withai, pleasant to
the taste. 1t possesses tonic proper
ties that strengthen the stomach, liver
and bowels and is a remedy that has
been for years the great standby in
thousands of families. and should be
in every family medicine chest. 1t is
equally as valuable for children as for
older people.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and s1.0o
bottles. If you have never tried II
send your name and address to DR.. w.
B. Caldwell, POI Washington ST., Mon
ticello, ILL.,, and he will be very glad to
send a sample bottle for trial.

CHAPT Err III


The Santa Fe trail was far too ex-
in broad daylight. but Keith consid-
cred 1t better to put sufficient space
between himself and those whom he
felt confident were still watching his
movements from across the river.
How much they might already suspi-
cion his discoveries he possessed no
means of knowing, yet, conscious OF
their own guilt. they might easily feel
safer II he were also put out of the
way. He had no anticipation of open
attack. but must guard against treach-
cry. AS he rode. his eyes never left
those far-away sand dunes. although
he perceived no movement. no black
dot even which he could conceive to
be a possible enemy. Now that he
possessed ample time for thought. the
situation became more puzzling This
tragedy which he had accidentally
stumbled upon must have had cause
other than blind chance. 1t was the
elimination Of plot, with some rea-
son behind more important than ordi-
nary robbery. Apparently the wagons
contained nothing of value. merely the
clothing. provisions. and ordinary
utensils of an emigrant party. MOI
had the victims pockets been care
fully searched. Only the mules had
been taken by the raiders. and they
would be small booty for such &
crime
