This Simple Laxative
A Household Necessity
DR.. Cald,velPs Syrup Pepsin
Should Haze a Place In
EUery Home.

Constipation, or inaction of the
bowels, condition that nearly every
one experiences with more or less
frequency, is the direct cause of much
disease. When the bowels become
clogged with refuse from the stomach
foul gases and poisons are, generated,
and unless the congestion is quickly
relieved the system becomes weaken
ed and most susceptible to attack.
Various remedies to relieve consti-
patton are prescribed, but many of
these contain cathartic or purgative
agents that are harsh and violent in
their action and shock the system
The most effective remedy is the COM
bination of simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that is sold in drug stores un-
der the name of DR.. CaldwelIs Syrup
Pepsin.
The Hon. John D. Keister of
Brandywine. w. Va, who has rep
resented his district in the State Legis-
lature for six years. writes that he
uses DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin and
finds 1t a splendid laxative, easy to
take and mild, yet positive. in its ac-
ton, and that it should be in every
household for use when needed.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists in all parts of the United
States and costs only fifty cents a
bottle. 1t contains no opiate or mar
cotic drug. does not grippe and is
recommended as n family laxative,
mild enough for the tiniest babe, yet

Third and Fourth Streets
Again Urged by Chief

Immediate relief in the congested
traffic conditions on Third and Fourth
streets between Chestnut and Walnut
is urged by Chief of Police ]. Edward
Wetzel in the quarterly report of the
conduct of the Police Department as
submitted this morning to Council by
Mayor Meals. The late Chief of Police
ZeiI made similar recommendations,
Chief Wetzel explained that he is
now compelled to keep both the day
and night officers busy Saturday nights
in order to keep the highways clear.
Parking of automobiles on these streets
should not be permitted, the chief
points out, and the simplest way to
remedy this. he adds. is to make both
sections "one-way traffic" highways,
Thirty more policemen arc asked
for. A touching tribute to ]. Thomas
Leil, his predecessor, is embodied in
the report. Chief Wetzel states that
he expected in the near future to i'm
prove the efficiency and discipline of
the department by holding school"
in the basement once every two weeks.
The statistical report shows that
during July, August and September
fines and forfeitures collected totaled
S1,392.4S; total arrests. SCI; number
of wagon and ambulance calls, 674;
turned over to City Treasury. Sl,392.4S.

chief opponent in the national election
fight revealed the true facts of the
case.
Not only did Mr.. Hughes deny the
assertions of the Presidents supporters
that he has kept the Nation out of
war. but he boldly declared that I'VE
have had intermittent peace with out
honor and intermittent war without
honor"
Mr.. Hughes did not hesitate to at
tack any of the administrations mis-
takes and weak attempts to overcome
them by actions which made the orig
NAL moves even more dangerous to the
United States and more ridiculous to
the world at large.
The Wilson policy in Mexico came in
for the severest of arraignment. The
Wilson policy abroad was likewise
barred in all its vacillations and contra
dictions. The Wilson policy in the or
dinary national events was likewise
held up to the light of honest criticism
and needed derision.
Mr.. Hughes did not forget in this
memorable address the principles of
protective tariff so necessary for the
vital welfare of the Nation. In his
plea for proper protection of Amer
lean industries and enterprises he
WdTIteu lHtI instead OF DelnS wasted
by the war, Europe would have on
hand force of trained men to take
up the pursuits of peace when the
nations have once more Joined in
friendly alliances. He asked whether
this country is preparing for this
eventuality.
When Mr.. Hughes entered the
opera house he was greeted by a
reception which lasted for several
minutes. Practically every holder OF
a seat had been provided with an Am
erican flag. and they Joined in a waving
of the national colors. which presented
beautiful and inspiring scene.
Colonel John C. Grihbel, president
of the Union League, under whose au-
spices the mass meeting was held, in
troduced the candidate. He, too
made a stirring appeal for Republican
support, and attacked the actions OF
the Wilson administration

Certainly there is no one left now
who can say that We enjoy splendid
isolation because of the oceans that
separate us from other countries A

that we can be attacked successfully
without warning and great damage in

Well-informed men have known this
for long time, and the most mex
cusable thing of all the inexcusable
things of the Wilson Administration has
been its failure through the last three
years to prepare for the new condi-
tions which modern inventions have de-
veloped. This is not only true of war
at arms. but war In industry, for we
are as unprepared for peace as we are
for war"
