a Bad Constipation
There Is a Mild Laxative That Will
Bring Safe and Pleasant Relief

of ailments should be the most gen.
eral, and so we have whole nation
suffering from constipation and indi-
gestion, for they are closely allied. But

pie do not seem to know they have it..
They will complain of headache, drow-
siness or biliousness, all unconscious
Of the cause of the trouble.
You should have full and free move
ment at least once a day. If you pass
a day you are constipated, and the re-
suit will be that you will catch a cold
easily or have more serious ailment.
To cure the constipation and forestall
still greater trouble take a dose of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at night be-
fore retiring and by morning relief
will come, without disturbance from
sleep or any inconvenience
Legions of people use it regularly in
such emergencies, some of them for
merly chronic invalids who had suf-
fered from constipation all their lives.
Mrs. N. Frantz, 81 Eighth St., Salem,
Ohio, took physics for years, and, worst
of all, without much avail. Finally,
she began to take DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin and today she is no longer trou-
bled and eats what she likes. Many
others will tell you that they have tried
most things recommended for this pur-
pose but have found Syrup Pepsin the

RAILWAY COMMON
RATE INCREASED
Directors Declare Earnings of
Company Justify Greater
Dividend Payments.

Instead of declaring an extra divi-
dend on the common stock the direc-
tors Of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company yesterday afternoon
raised the dividend rate from to 6
per cent. The stock has been steadily
advancing for the past couple of weeks
and the Street believed that this was
due to the probability Of an extra divi-
dend being declared.
The first dividend at the increased rate
will be payable June l. The books will
be closed fifteen days prior to the date
Of payment. In the past week the
stock has advanced FIVE and half
points, and there has been little OF II
available
The resolution adopted by the direc-
tors declares that the earnings Of the
company have been sufficient to justify
the increased distribution to stockhold-
ers.
The comparative income account state
ment recently issued to stockholders
shows the surplus for 1912 to be s1.025,-
73O. 49, as compared with $3.50. .907.S9 in
1911: $7l46i3 81. in 1910; $7is. 794.s4, in 1909;
s72i, 1857, in 1905, and ST.. .12075. in 1907.
The increased rate will involve the
payment of $3.50 900 more annually to
holders of the common stock, and on
June l the distribution will be So. 500
greater than the March payment. Thus
the extra payment is less by some 81, 600
than the increase inthe surplus Of 1912
over that Of 1911.

The woman, who conducts a store at

with the court to allow her her liberty.
and declared that she would start right
away to clean up her place of busi-

Well start with you first and with
your store after you have undergone a
cleaning process" declared the court.
Inspectors connected with the Health
Department complained that the wom-
ans store was in such a condition that
the colored people living nearby pro-

Judge Pugh taxed his judicial ca
pacity to its utmost to find a means of
having the woman's property properly
taken care of while she is receiving
treatment. After receiving assurance
of policemen of the Eighth precinct that
they would take care fthe place. the

fleet the commission from its min

imum wage law for men, or for both
sexes, the whole agitation would die
without attendant funeral services
impressive enough to arouse the
entire people.
d Now the 0'Hara commission
wishes to give the people an open
example of how much actual need
there is for a minimum wage law
for men as well as women.
I While at the same time the COM
mission is going to keep up its fight
for minimum wage law for women
as a first step toward a similar law
for men, and will use the figures OBJ
tanned in regard to starvation wages
paid to men to show the need of the
immediate enactment of a minimum
wage law for women.
For this much is obvious: If the
father of family is being paid
starvation wage on which it is abso-
lutely impossible for. him to support
his family, so that he has to send
his daughters as well as his sons out
p to work, then his daughters are en-
titled to a living wage and not just
little money to help out at home"
