Most Old People
Are Constipated

The wear of years impairs the
action Of the bowels. With ad-
vancing age people are disposed
TO restricted activity and exer-
else. which is responsible for the
constipated condition of most old
folks. The digestive organs are
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel more
quickly.
A mild. effective remedy for
constipation, and one that is
especially suited to the needs Of
elderly people, women and chill
drea, is the combination of sim
pie laxative herbs with pepsin
that is sold in drug stores under
the name of DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin. A free trial bottle can
be obtained by writing to DIR. w.
