WHAT JIMMY DAVIS KNOWS?

Jimmy Davis who was chairman of the appro-

session when the state money was thrown away
and the people burdened with the high taxes they

the county treasurer, is making an effort to
crawl from under the load and saddle it onto
somebody else
The public is onto Jimmy It was he who
stood for the big grabs. It was Jimmy who dau-

What IS Won1an's
Beauty but Health
And the Basis of Her Health and
Vigor Lies in the Careful Reg
ulation Of the Bowels.

Vfgor Lies In the Careful Reg
ulation Of the Bowels.
II woman's beauty depended
upon cosmetics, every woman
would be picture of loneliness.
But beauty lies deeper than that.
1t 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 bow
els.
The headaches, the lassitude,
the sallow skin and the lusterless
eyes are usually due to constipa-
ton. So many things that women
do habitually conduce to this
trouble. They do not eat care
fully, they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served
daintily and they do not exercise
enough. But whatever the par
ticular cause may be it is import
ant that the condition should be
corrected.
An ideal remedy for women,
and one especially suited to their
delicate requirements, is DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which
thousands of women endorse
highly, among them Mrs. C. S.
vance, of 511 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 her ex-
cellent health today to this rem
edy..
All the family can use DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, for thous-
ands of mothers give 1t to babies
and children. 1t is also admir-
ably suited to the requirements
OF elderly people, in fact to all
who by reason of age or infirm-
