Two Generations
 Are Now Using It
Nations Most Popular Laxative Keep Ing Millions of American Fami-
 lies in Good Health

There must be genuine merit to an article that has stood the test Of two generations of users.
 Tn the field of medicine none has had greater success, nor retained that success to a greater degree, than Dr. Caldwelfs Syrup Pepsin. which is now being used by two generations of people. It's use in families is constantly becoming more gem oral The reason. primarily, Is that it has merit. It is what it represents itself 10 be. A laxative-tonc It does not hide behind the name of well-known fruit or vegetable; it does not make exagger- ated claims nor use coarse language 10 set forth it's virtues.
 It is a medicine. but so mild and gen tie a medicine that thousands of mothers give 1t to tiny infants. and yet in a slightly larger dose. It is equally effective for grown-ups. It is for any disorder of the stomach liver or bowels for consti- patton no matter how chronic. for dys- pepsa no matter how severe, for bilious ness, sour stomach. gas on the stomach headaches, drowsness after eating, and similar complaints arising from a clogged up condition of the bowels. 1t is pleasant to taste and does not grlpe. It can be used with safety and good results by anyone at any age or in any condition of health and that persons health will improve Every druggist sells 1t and the price Is only fifty cents and one dollar bottle

Peruna Critics Say
That there was Nothing Won derful in the Recovery of
 Mrs. Eberlein.
DR. HARTMAN REPLIES.


 or course my narrative concerning Mrs. kherlein, of Pttsburg. who was rescued rom apparent death by Pe-ru-na, has ex- cited good deal of discussion and com ment One critic has offered the follow ing solution. He says that the reason Pe-ru-na cured Mrs. Eberlein at such a stage of the disease is explained as fol- lows:
 She was probably very weak She be- came unable to expectorate. The conse- quence was huge accommodations of mueus and phlegm gathered in the lungs. On ae- count of her weakness she was unable to expel it. It was slowly strangling her to death.
 Pe-ru-na stimulated her, enabled her to cough up and spit out the accumulated phlegm. This explains why she was cur ed There was no miracle about IL. Nothing wonderful either.
 To all of which 1 say, yes, of course, That may be the explanation. And yet it remains true that without the Pe-ru-na she would have died. It remaias true that I got there just In time to save her life. The doctors had given her up to die. She was gasping for breath, unconscious cold. in short. dying. However, it is ex- plained, the Pe-ru-na saved her life Of course it did.
 I do not believe in miracles myself. I believe there is a natural explanation for everything. Pe-ru-na helped Mrs. Eber- lein to expel from her lungs the accumu- lated expectoration, and thus saved her life. Good
 I presume Mrs Eberen is just as thankful that she is alive with one ex- planation as with another, and ] am just as thankful that I was able tos cure her. whatever the explanation may be.

Millions are used every year-and when every other man or woman you meet recommends them to you if you will but nduire-why do You continue to suffer from stomach trouble?
 The reasons why Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are such a widely used remedy and very easy to understand. These tablets contain almost the same ele- ments as the gastric juices of the ston- ach. And when your sttlnach Is sick and not working just right. it does not riyeNout enough of the natural digestive juices to properly take care of the food you eat. So if you will only give the stom- ach a little help by taking a Stuart's Dvspepsia Tablet after meals you will relieve the stomach of it's chief duty and allow it the rest it needs to recu- perate. One grain of the active princi- pIe in Stuart Dyspepsia Tablet d. rests COO grains of food, whether you place it in a glass jar with cooked food or In your stomach after you have eaten the food
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and once you try them you will never again wonder what to do for a disordered. weak. sour and gassy stom- ach. s0 cents box.
