Heat Is Quick to
Affect the Bowels
Well Known Fact That Extreme
Heat Conduces to Chronic
Constipation

So many people are in the habit of
eating cold food in hot weather that
constipation is very common during
summer. 1t is best to vary the food
and have some hot things, as, for ex-
ample, soups and hot fish and meats, if
that is to be the diet. Iced water
should be drunk sparingly.
In spite of all care people will be-
come constipated, and if you find your
se4A in that condition you can get i'm
me.-ate relief by the use OF DR.. Cald-
Wells Syrup Pepsin. There is no
time Of the year when you should be
more careful Of constipation than in
the summer, for many OF the serious
illnesses, as we'll as the fatalities, re-
suit from q clogging up Of the bowels.
You also need general good health TO
withstand the heat, and hence Syrup
Pepsin is best to take because ii con-
tains tonic ingredients that help TO
build up the entire system.
Numerous users throughout the land
will verify these facts, among them
Mr., George c. Allen, 40s N. Main ST.,
Reading, Mass, who recovered his
health completely after using only two
bottles; and Miss Anna schoR, $40 s.
