The editors of Health Hints" and
Questions and Answers" have one
question that is put to them more Of
ten than any other, and which
strangely enough, they find the most
difficult to answer. That is "How

in diseases OF the stomach, liver and
bowels, has looked the whole field
over, has practised the speciality for
forty years and is convinced that the
ingredients contained in what is
called DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin

constipated people.
