CapOns are a rare thing on most of
our western farms, because the people

what they are and the profits they
bring A great many people do not

KEEP THE CHILDREN
BRIGHT AND HAPPY

Happy youngsters must be healthy
The digestive organs Of children
get out Of order as readily as do
those OF their elders. and the result
is equally distressing. When the
bowels are clogged with an aceu-
mutation Of refuse from the stomach
the child naturally becomes cross
and fretfuI from the discomfort
and is often punished for temper
when medical attenuon is really
what is needed.
The next time your child is cross
and unhappy. without apparent rea-
son, try giving ii a mild laxative.
Dr.. CaldwelTs Syrup Pepsin is a
mild, pleasant tasting combination
OF simple laxative herbs with pepsin,
and is especially recommended for
children because Of its freedom

Venice one Andrea Casini. 81 gentleman

most powerful family in Italy. was re-
ceived with marked favor. Though he
knew that Signorina Lita was betroth-
