Woman's Health Requires
Care

Women are SO constituted as
to be peculiarly susceptible 10
constipation, and their general
health depends in large measure
on careful regulation and cor
rection Of this tendency. Their
delicate organisms rebel at the
violence Of cathartic and purga-
tive remedies, which, while they
may afford temporary RELIEF,
shock the system and seriously
disturb the functional organs. A
mild laxative is far preferable
and, II properly compounded.
much more effective.
The combination Of simple lax
alive herbs with pepsin sold IN
drug stores under the name OF
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is
ideal for .women's use. A free
trial bottle can be obtained by
writing to DR.. w. B. Caldwell

Is of intense interest Just now be-

particular interest because much of
