Says Simple Remedy
Prolonged His Life
DR.. CALDWELL'S SYRUP PEPSIN
EFFECTIVE AS A REMEDY
FOR CONSTIPATION

Among older people the various
organs of the body have a tendency
to slow up and weaken, and this is
usually first manifest in a pronounc-
ed inactivity of the bowels.
Good health is dependent on regu-
larity in this important function :;
whenever there is the slightest indi-
cation of constipation a mild laxative
should be taken to relieve the con-
gestion and dispose of the Gccumu-
lated waste. Cathartics or purgatives
should not be employed, however:
these are too violent in action and
their effect is only temporary.
A mild laxative such as the combi-
nation of simple laxative herbs with
pepsln, known as DR.. CaldwelPs Sy-
rup Persin, is the ideal remedy. 1t is
gentle in its action, bringing relief
IN an easy, natural manner, without
gripping or other pain or discomfort,

obtained in any drug store.

Mrs. Topperwein is claimed to be
the premier lady shot of the world.
Although she took up shooting only
a few years ago, she has startled the
shooting world and entertained many
thousands of people by her great
skill with rifle, shotgun and pistol.
Shooting comes natural to her as
without seeming difficulty she mas
tiers various kinds of shooting quick
ly.

the Worlds Fair in St. Louis, where.
