Very few people go through life

sands injure themselves by the use

waters, 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 be-
come
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary. and much better and
more permanent results can be OBJ
tanned by using a scientific rem
edy like Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pep
sin. It does not hide behind a high
sounding name. but is what it is
represented to be- a mild laxative
medicine. 1t is so mild that thou
sands of mothers give it to tiny in
fants, and vet it is so compounded,
and contains such definite ingre-
dents that it will have equally good
effect when used by a person suf-
fering from the worst chronic con-
stipation. In fact, among the great.
est indorsers of Syrup Pepsin are
elderly people who have suffered
for years and found nothing to ben
