FREE REMEDY HELPS CHILDREN

Many a mother has learned Of
way OF avoiding sickness in her fam
ily especially. among the children, by
the use OF a tree sample bottle of the
famous la!XS;ative, DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup
Pepsin., This offer of the doctors to
send iree sample bottle has been re-
in all parts of America.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
truly wonderful laxative and esne-
cially adapted to the needs of babies
and children because it is pleasant to
taste and no child will refuse it. Then,
it is mild and never gripes. It is ali
that a child's remedy should be,
though it is a good laxative for the
whole family because it is effective
at all ages. 1t is not dynamic like
salts, pills and powerful cathartics,
which should not be given to chill
dren under any circumstances.

Good Things to Know

In building chimney, it is rec
commended to put quantity of salt
into the mortar with which the inner
course of brick Is laid. The effect
will be that there will never be any
accumulation of SCOT in the chimney,
for the reason that the salt in the
portion of mortar which Is exposed
will absorb the moisture on damp
days, and the SCOT becoming damp,
will fall down from the walls of the
chimney, and may be easily removed.
