WHAT is WOMAN'S
BEAUTY BUT HEALTH
And the Basis Of Her Health and vigor
Lies in the Careful Regulation
of the Bowels


If women's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be a pic
ture of loveliness. But beauty lies deep
or than that. lt lies in health. In the
majority of cases the basis of health,
and the cause of sickness, can be traced
to the action of the bowels.
The headaches. the lassitude the sal
low skin and the usterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. SO many
things that women do habitually con
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully, they cat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it is important that the condition should
be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women. and one
especially suited to their delicaSe re-
quirements, is DR.. Caldwel's Syrup Pep
sin. which thousands of women endorse
highly, among them Mrs. C.. S. Vance.
of 5ll S. Ray St., New Castle, Pa At
times she had spells of Indigestion so
severe that she thought she would die.
Syrup Pepsin regulated her stomach and
bowels, and she attributes. ner excellent
health today TO this remedy.
All the family can use DR.. Caldwelrs
Syrup Pepsin, for thousands Of mothers
give il to babies and children. 1t is
also admirably suited to the require
ments OF elderly people, in fact to all
who by reason of age OF infrmity can
not stand harsh salts, cathartics. pills
or purgatives. These should always be
avoided, for at best their effect is only

Complexion Secrets
OF An Actress

In a recently issued volume bearing
the above title, the author says:
Continuous use of grease paints,
rouge and the like had ruined my
complexion. My skin was cOlorless,
wrinkled, coarse and punctured with
large pores. In England | heard of
the virtues of mercolized wax; my
first experience with this marvellous
substance convinced me it was more
valuable than all cosmetics combined.
Now whenever my complexion be-
gins to go wrong I get an ounce OF
mercOlized wax at the nearest drug
store, spread on thin layer of it
before retiring, washing it off next
morning. The wax, after few such
treatments. seems literally to absorb
the worn out cuticle. when a bright
er. healthier, younger-looking skin
appears.
"For the wrinkles and enlarged
pores began using a solution OF
saxolite, one ounce, dissolved in a
half pint witch hazel Bathing the
face in this every day for while
scou relieved the condition most won-
derfully."
