disorder Of the digestive organs. and d
mild laxative is very often all that Is
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy OF spirits.
In cases where the use of a gentle.
effective laxative stimuiant Is indi-
Gated, many Of the best physicians are
now prescribing DR.. Caidwelps Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
ly 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. Its easy,
natural action makes 1t especially de-
Birable In the case OF children, dose

Mr.. Toomer has lived in Lake Charles
and in Calcasieu parish since early
childhood. He is graduate of the law
department of Tulane University, and
began the practice of his chosen pro.
fesSion in 1901.
Mr.. Toomer was elected Representa-.
tive from Calcasieu to the General
Assembly of 1904. He was prominent
In the movement for a reduction OF
patronage in the governors office. He
introduced the House resolution in the
session of that year which committed
the House to such reduction at the
next session, and was one of three
members who succeeded in getting
patronage reduction measures passed
at the session of 1904.
In this latter connection he was
author OF the joint resolutions propoS.
ing constitutional amendments which
were ratified by the people, making
vacancies of more than one year in the
office Of the district Judge and sheriff
elective: also of bill making such va
cancleS in police iuries elective and of
bill making assessors elective which
passed the House in 1906.
Mr.. Toomer was author of the Nc.
Emery scrip legislation of the session
of 1905, whereby the effort of the Freli.
ser syndicate to deprive honest owners
and holders Of their lands entered with
such scrip was defeated. There are
more than $4,000 acres GLAND so entered
in Calcasieu parish alone.
His friends believe he will make a
strong contender for the place, and if
elected, worthy occupant of the
bench.
