lamso0 Huildino


Waterloo, Jan. So-The big safe in
the burned Russell-Lamson building.
in which were stored the valuable pa
pers and cash on hand of the Paul
Davis Dry Goods Company, was opened
yesterday by Merle Coburn of E. ".
Soburn & Son, iocksmith, after consid-
cradle difficulty. All the contents were
found in good shape, having passed
thru the fire with little or no damage
The feat of opening the safe and re-
moving the contents attracted a great
deal of attention. The big safe was
hanging. onto several twisted girders
far above the basement floor and it was
necessary for Mr.. Cohurn to climb up
the sirders to the level of the second
story and then let himself down to
where the safe was.
The combination. as the result OF
the intense heat, had become swollen
and warked hard. but after careful
manipulation the big box was opened.
The papers were found to have been
more or less discolored by the action
Of the gases forming in the safe but
otherwise We're not injured. The cur
rency and coin were as good as ever.
Mr.. Cobu-n passed the papers and
the money down 10 Q. A. Sardason,
treasurer of the company who in turn
passed them to M. Davis.
All the time the opening Of the safe
and the removal OF the contents We're

All Clogged Up?
Here's Quik Relief
A Simple Remedy to Correct
Constipation Before 1t
Becomes Chronic.

Very few people go through life with
out some time or other being troubled
with constipation. Thousands injure
themselves by the use of strong ca
thartics, salts, mineral waters, pills and
similar things. They have temporary
value in some cases, it is true, but the
good effect is soon lost, and the more
one takes of them the less effective
they become.
A physic or purgative is seldom ne
cessary, and much better and more
permanent results can be obtained by
using a scientific remedy like DR.. Ca1d-
wells Syrup Pepsin. 1t does not hide
behind high sounding name. but is
what it Is represented to be. a mild
laxative medicine. 1t is so mild that
thousands Of mothers give it to tiny
infants. and yet 1t is 50 compounded
and contains such definite ingredients
that it will have equally good effect
when used by person suffering from
the worst chronic constipation. In
fact. among the greatest endorsers of
Syrup Pepsin are elderly people who
have suffered for years and found
nothing to benefit them until they took
Syrup Pepsin.
1t Is a fact that millions Of families
have Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin con-
stantly in the house. homes like those
Of Mr.. II. w. Fenstermaker. Siegfried,
Pa. He says he has had wonderful
results from the use Of DR.. Caldwelrs
