CHILDREN NEED EXTRA CARE
IN HOT WEATHER
Summer Heat Dangerous to Lit
tie Ones II Bowels Arc
Neglected.

The mother cannot do better for
her children than to train them, from
infancy. to regularity Of the bowels.
Chronic constipation in later life can
be avoided if the child learns early
the need for daily evacuation OF the
poisonous stomach waste
There will, of course, be times when
the little None will become constipated
and bilious. In hot weather, especial
ly. immediate attention Is necessary,
as much serious illness results from
inactive bowels. Salts, cathartics,
purgatives, and similar drastic irri-
tants are harsh and violent and only
bring temporary relief while disturb
ing the whole system. A gentle, pleas
ant bowel stimulant like DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin Is far preferable.
Syrup Pepsin contains 10 narcotic
drug, being composed of simple laxa-
tive herbs combined with pepsin, and
acts gently, in a natural manner, on
stomach, bowels and liver. BY thor
oughly cleansing the bowels and re-
moving the foreign matter that irri-
Itates and inflames the tissue, 1t will
quickly check the summer diarrhoea
that is SO weakening in it's effect.
Druggists sell Dr.. Gaidwell's Syrup
Pepsin for fifty cents and one dollar
| a bottle, the larger size being intend
ed for family use. A free trial bottle
postpaid, can be obtained by writing
