Desiccated Fruits.

We have passed in a single genera
ton from the era of dried apples to
that of desiccated fruits. Both the
language and the menu are richer for
the change. Soldiers and sailors,
campers and explorers have now a
longer and more wholesome ration
list; and those Of US who stay at
home can in the dead OF winter enjoy
a number Of agreeable fruits and veg.
etables that our fathers knew only
during a brief season of the year. The
latest addition to the list is the canta-
loup. A California grower has dis.
covered that cantaloups can be sue
cessfully dried, and so preserved in

vor, but with Improvement. The next

uL0fion of fhe BosreLS.

uLGfion of fhe BosreLs.
II woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a
picture of loneliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. 1t lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis of
health, and the cause Of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
1t is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements, is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en-
dorse highly. among them Mrs. c. S.
Vance, of 511 s. Ray ST., New Castle,
Pa. At times she had spells Of indi-
gestion so severe that she thought she
would die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her
stomach and bowels, and she attrib-
utes her excellent health today to this
remedy.
All the family can use DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, for thousands of moth
ers give 1t to babies and children. 1t
is also admirably suited to the require
ments of elderly people, in fact to all
