THE PEEvISH CHILD
NEEDS TREATMENT

When q child sulks drowsily, or IL
fretful, It is usually due to some slight
disorder Of the digestive organs. and q
mild laxative Is very often all that II
necessary to restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy of spirits.
In cases where the use of a gentle,
effective laxative stimulant is indi-
Gated, many Of the best physicians are
now prescribing DR.. Caidwells Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
ly the perfect laxative. being mild. yet
positive In its 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-
sirable In the case of children, dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in SOC and
3100 bottles. II you have never tried
this splendid remedy, write to d.. w.
B. Caldwell. POI Washington ST.. Mon

very glad to send a trial bottle with

When the k.I..r WA. peexed.


Between the German Emperor and
his brother, Prince Henry, there is q
relation which reminds one strongly
OF the two brothers in Thackeray's
1.-The virginians." Henry is the sailor
prince of the Fatherland, though he
has a rival in his nephew, Prince
Adalbert. For long he has repre-
sented his imperial brother. and again
and again he has been intrusted with
delicate missions on behalf of Germany
Born In 1862, Prince Henry married
in 1888 his cousin. Princess Irene Of
Hesse. and, In consequence, is broth
er-in-law to the czarina OF Russia. His
facial appearance closely resembles
that of the Russian monarch, who is a
living image OF King George of Eng
land.
Talking of these family matters re-
calls a good story told about the kaiser
when he became grandfather. He
was in the yacht Hohenzollern off
Norway at the time. and only heard
the news indirectly. Angry at not re-
ceiving wire from home, he went
ashore and there found a big pile OF
telegrams conveying congratulations
The first one opened was from the de-
throned sultan of Turkey, Abdul Ha-
mid. and he Immediately wired to his
heir-apparent: II learn from the sui
tan that your wife has had a son."

How Mayor shank swore or.

Mayor Shank and Theodore Hewes
took a solemn pledge several months
ago to quit smoking, and the pledge
might have been carried out II either
had broken it. They were at Hot
Springs, Arkansas, and one evening
they decided smoking was harmful and
that they would discontinue the habit.
Hewes had Just two cigars left In a
box and handed one to the mayor. TAX
ing the other himself
well, Lew" said Hewes, I'VE will
take one last smoke. Then we will
break up the box and throw 1t out Of
the window, so we will see nothing to
remind us of cigars"
The next morning both of them
awakened with strong desire 20
smoke. Hewes and the mayor excused
themselves from each other, each de-
claring he had some business to at
tend to- Hewes thought he was safe
and walked past the hotel cigar stand,
but Just as he was about to buy he
saw the mayors eyes turned in his oi-
rection. Hewes left the hotel, walked
q few blocks, bought a cigar and en-
tering the hotel again by rear en-
trance, sat down in the shoe-shining
chair He lighted his cigar and just
~ he began to enjoy it happened to
look into the adjoining barber shop,
and there was the mayor seated In a
chair smoking a very black cigar. Both
laughed. and they have been smoking
ever since.

ECZEMA DIsFleuRED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples. his little
face was disfgured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago. where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine Of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies. and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly We saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age. three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.
Albrecht, Box SS3, West Point, Neb.,
Oct. 26, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold by druggists
and dealers everywhere. a sample OF
each. with 32-page book, will be mailed
free on application to "Cuticura."

He received the shoes and handed
