the victim Of one Of the most peculiar
accidents to be called to the attention
Of physicians. A sandburr has been
lodged in the girls throat and It will
be necessary to take her to an Omaha

The girl was brought to North Platte
yesterday, but after several attempts
to extract the sandburr had proved
futile it was announced that she must
be taken to Omaha, where a broncho-
scope could be obtained. p.
While walking near her home Miss
Lovinburge caught a sandburr on her
glove. In attempting to remove it
with her teeth she in some lmanper
swallowed it. The sandburr lodged
in her throat just below the vocal
cords, making it impossible for her to
speak. When every effort OF mem
bers OF the family to remove the sand
burr failed the girl was brought to the

Mother Praises Remedy
That Relieved Her BABY
Dr.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin Ii a
Dependable Family
Laxative.

Nearly ALL the sickness incident te
baby's life is due to constipation, Oh
inaction of the bowels. At the frs
indication of irregularity in this i'm
portant function, relief should be af
forded promptly. A mild laxative
should be administered to gentl,
carry off the congested waste ant
leave the stomach and bowels free
to perform their allotted tasks.
OF the various remedies recon-.
mended to relieve constipation, the
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin, as prescribed by DR.
w. B. Caldwell and sold In drug
stores under the name of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is the most effec-
tive. 1t contains no opiate or mar
cotic drug, is pleasant to the taste,
mild and gentle in action, and quickly
brings the desired relief in an easy,
natural manner.
Mrs. c. J, Douglas, Mason, ILL.,,
writes that she cannot say enough in
praise of Dr.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
as dependable family laxative. Lit
tie Mary Eva had been badly consti-
pated until they tried DR., Caldwelrs
