Are You Subject
to Constipation
Here is Simple Way of Correct
ing it Instantly Before it
Becomes Chronic,

Very few people go through life
without some time Or other being
troubled with constipation. Thous-
ands injure themselves by the use
of strong cathartics, salt mineral
waters, pills and similar things.
They have temporary value in
some cases, it is true, but the good
effect is soon lost, and the more
one takes of them the less effect
i've they become.
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary, and much better and
more permanent results can be
obtained by using a scientific rem
edy like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin. 1t does not hide behind a
high sounding name, but is what
it Is represented to be, mild lax
alive medicine. 1t is so mild that
thousands of mothers give it to
tiny infants, and yet it is so COM
pounded, and contains such defin-
lite ingredients that it will have
equally good effect when used by
a 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 I'M
til they took Syrup Pepsin.
1t is a fact that millions of
families have Syrup Pepsin con-
stantly in the house, homes like
those of Mrs. G.. B. Pruitt, Berea,
KY, who used DR.. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin as a laxative tonic. Mrs.
Pruitt writes that it so strength
ened and cleansed her system that
she was quickly relieved of a Sc
we're cough which had troubled
her for months. The special val
lie of this grand laxative tonic
is that it is suited to the needs

IRELAND'S
HOME RULE
BILL WINS
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

lily On1teu Press Leased WIfe.)
LONDON, Jan. 17.-Passed by
the house of commons by the
usual government majority of
ITO votes, the Irish home rule
bill today is awaiting it's second
reading in the house of lords.
The measure was given its first
technical reading Immediately
after the commons vote last
night, but on second reading 1t
is expected the peers of the
realm will promptly reject the
bill as the government can mus
ter not more than 80 votes IN
the upper house. Should this oc-
cur as expected, the government,
plans that the commons will re-
pass the measure at the next ses-
sion, which opens in Marcn.
If, after that, the lords again
reject the bill, the commons pass
it for the third time in 1914, aft
er which, under the operation OF
the recently passed "veto bill"
the measure will become law, de-
spite the opposition of the peers.
