All Clogged Up?
Here's Quick Relief
A Simple Remedy to Correct
Constipation Before it Be-
comes Chronic.


Very few people go through life with
out some time or other being troubled
with constipation. Thousands injure
themselves by the use Of strong ca
thartics, salts, mineral waters, pills
and similar things. They have tenn
porary value in some cases, it is true,
but the good effect is soon lost, and
the more one takes of them the less eff
fective they become.
A physic Or purgative is seldom
necessary, and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained by
using a scientific remedy like DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t does not
hide behind a high sounding name, but
is what 1t is represented to be, a mild
laxative medicine. 1t Is so mild that
thousands Of mothers give it to tiny
infants, and yet it is so compounded.
and contains such definite ingredients
that it will have equally good effect
when used by person suffering from
the worst chronic constipation. In
fact, among the greatest endorsers of
Syrup Pepsin are elderly people who
have suffered for years and found
nothing to benefit them until they
took Syrup Pepsin.
