Old People Need
A Bowel Stinulant
The Ideal One is Mild Laxative
Tonic that VIII Keep the Bowels
Gently Active

Healthy old age is so absolutely de
pendent upon the condition OF the
bowels that great care should be TAX
Ell to see that they act regularly.
The fact is that as age advances the
stomach muscles become weak and
inactive and the liver does not store
up the juices that are necessary to
prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by plen
ty of exercise, but this latter is irk-
some to most elderly people. One
thing is certain, that a state of con
stipation should always be avoided,
as it is dangerous to life and health
The best plan is to take mild laXa-
tive as often as is deemed necessary
But with equal certainty it is suggest
ed that cathartics, purgatives, ply
sizes, salts and pills be avoided, as
they do but temporary good and are
so harsh as TO be shock to deli
cato system.
A much better plan and one that
thousands of elderly people are fol-
lowing, is 10 take gentle laxative
tonic like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, which acts as nearly like nature
as is possible In fact, the tendency
Of this remedy is to strengthen the
stomach and bowel muscles and so
train them to act naturally again,
when medicines of all kinds can us
ually be dispensed with. This is The
opinion of many people of different
ages. among them Mrs. Mary a. P.

Tie daily cares of keeping house
and bringing up a family are hard
enough for a healthy woman. The
tired, weak mother who struggles
from morn to night with a lame, ach-
ing back is carrying a heavy burden.
Many women believe that urinary
disorders and backache are female
troubles and must be endured. But
men suffer the same aches and trou-
bles when the kidneys are sick.
Women are especially subject to kid
ney disease. Tight clothing, indoor
work, the ordeals of childbirth, the
worry, and the STOPPING, straining and
striving of homework all help to bring
it on. At first the trouble may be only
backache, sick headache, dizziness
and a drowsy, dull languid feeling. but
this condition is dangerous to neglect,
for dropsy, gravel and deadly Bright's
disease start in some such small way.
Don't be discouraged. When back
ache, nervousness and irregular or
painful passages of the kidney secre-
lions begin to bother you, use Doan's
