disorder of the digestive organs, and a
mild laxative is very often all that is
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
5uoyancy OF spirits.
IN cases where the use of a gentle,
effective laxativel stimulanJ is indi-
Gated. many Of the best physicians are
now prescribing DR.. Caidwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
Iy the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In it's action on the bowels,
and far preferable to violent cathart-
les and purgative waters. 1t is very
pleasant to the taste and is an ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels. Is easy,
natural action makes it especially de-
sirable in the case Of children, a dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
tendant unpIeasantness or discomfort.
DR.. CaldWell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in SOC and
