Growing Children Need 8 Mild Laxa- tive to Foster Regular Bowel
 Mnvovopnf
Movement

As child grows older it requires more and more personal attention from the mother, and as the func- tions of the bowels are of the utmost importance to health, great attention should be paid to them.
 Diet is of great importance, and certain foods food will constipate one and not another, and so we have a healthy food like eggs causing biliousness to thousands, and a whole some fruit like bananas constipating many. It is also to be considered that the child is growing, and great man or young woman. The system routine.
 A very valuable remedy at this stage, and one which every growing boy and girl should be given often or occasionally, according to the indi- vidual circumstances, is Dr. Caldwelfs Syrup Pepsin. This is a laxative and tonic combined, so mild that it is given to little babies, and yet equally effective in the most robust constitu- ton. At the first sign of tendency to constipation give small dose of syrup ,Pepsin at night on retiring, and prompt action will follow in the morning. It not only acts on the stomach and bowels, but it's tonic properties build up and strengthen the system generally. which is an opinion shared by MT. John Dey, of Bloom field, N. J. He has large family and at ages where the growth and
