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 accumulation of
refuse from the stomach the child ma
turaTy becomes cross and fretful
from the discomfort. and is often pun
ished for temper when medical atten-
ton is really what is needed.
The next time your child is cross
and unhappy, without apparent rea-
son, try giving it mild laxative. DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is mild,
pleasant tasting combination Of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin,
and is especially recommended for
children because of its freedom from
all opiate or narcotic drugs and its
gentle action. 1t is sold in drug
stores everywhere. A free trial bot
tie can be obtained by writing to DR.

One reason for Americans indifrer

These animals may after they are

If. on the other hand the whole com

been overwhelmingly the lack OF
stability of the average American farm

states this does not often happen.
The sons Of successful breeder have

1t is surprising how mauy people
drink little or no water. There is no
greater purifying agent than plenty Of
water internally. An abundance OF it
not only Pushes the entire system, but
improves the action Of the skin; hence
the complexion. Care should be taken
that the water drunk is free from
germs. If there is any doubt boil It.
DO not confne yourself exclusively to
either cold or hot water and do not
take either at extreme temperatures.
