Healthy old Age
Brings Happiness
Simple Remedy Promotes Health BY
Overcoming Tendency to
Constipation.


Advancing years impair the action
of the vital organs. Old age should
be the period of greatest happiness,
but good health is necessary. Con-
stipation should not be tolerated-it
is often the direct cause of ill health.
Headache, belching, biliousness,
bloat, drowsiness after eating and
other symptoms of constipation can
be readily relieved by the use of
simple laxative compound sold in
drug stores under the name of DIR.
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. Mr.. j. H.
Bristol, 1412 Geddes Ave., Ann Ar
bor, Mich, who is 83 years old, says
"Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the
best remedy I ever used for consti-
patton and l always have bottle
of it in the house to use when feel
the need of it; it nevef disappoints."
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
mild laxative preparation, positive in
its effect, acting easily and naturally
without gripping or other pain or dis
comfort. For over a quarter of a CEN
tury it has been the standard house
