They show her. finally. when her

It's great TO be homely.
At least Polaire, known In Paris
as "the ugliest woman In the world"

She has danced In all the capitals

Are You Subject
to Constipation
Here is a Simple Way of Cor
recting it Instantly Before
il Becomes Chronic.

Very few people go through life
without some time or other being
troubled with constipation. Thousands
injure themselves by the use OF
strong cathartics, salt mineral wa
ters. pills and similar things. They
have temporary value in some cases.
1t is true. but the good effect is soon
lost, and the more one takes Of them
the less effective they become
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary. and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained
by using q 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,
q mild laxative medicine. 1t is so
mild that thousands Of mothers give
it to tiny infants, and yet 1t is 30 COM
pounded, and contains such definite
ingredients that it will have equally
good effect when used by a person
suffering from the worst chronic con-
stipation. In fact, among the great
est endorsers OF Syrup Pepsin are
elderly people who have suffered for
years and found nothing to benefit
them until they took Syrup Pepsin.
1t is fact that millions Of families
have Syrup Pepsin constantly in the
house, homes like those Of Mrs. G. B.
Pruitt, Berea. KY. who used DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin as laxative
tonic. Mrs. Pruitt writes that 1t so
strengthened and cleansed her system
that she was quickly relieved OF Sc
,ere cough which had troubled her
Tor months. The special value of this
grand laxative tonic is that 1t Is suit

mild and non.griping. Unlike harsh
physics it works gradually and in
very brief time the stomach and
bowel muscles are trained to do their
work naturally again. when all medi-
cines can be dispensed with.
You can obtain bottle at any drug
store for fifty cents or one dollar. The
latter size is usually bought by fam
lilies who already know Its value. Re
suits are always guaranteed or money
will be refunded.
II no member of your family has
ever used Syrup Pepsin and you
would like to make personal trial
of it before buying it in the regular
