Well Known Remedy
Relieves Chronic Case
WASTE FROM THE STOMACH
WITH RENiULARlTY.

People frequently attribute to fail
ure of the digestive organs conditions
that are primarily due to inactive
bowels, and apply remedies that from
their very nature are more apt to ag-
gravate than to relieve the disorder.
When the bowels act regularly the
stomach is in better shape to perform
its allotted tasks and can usually be
depended upon. To keep the bowels
in condition there Is no more effective
remedy than the combination Of SIM
pie laxative herbs known as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, which is sold in
drug stores for fifty cents bottle.
DR.. Caldwell has prescribed this
remedy in his practice for over
quarter Of century and 1t Is to-day
the standard household remedy in
thousands Of homes. Mr.. Thos. De-
Loach, with the Department Of the
Interior, Office Of Indian Affairs, at
Washington, wrote Dr.. Caldwell re-
Gently that "Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is the best laxative have any
knowledge Of and the cleaning up
guaranteed by its use relieves every
organ"

IL. II. Darby Declares "TaHlac is q
Wonderful Medicine"-"I am
in Fine Shape Now"

Il have gained twenty (20) pounds
in weight and have been relieved Of
an ailment with which l suffered al
most year and which bahled the
leading physicians in number of
cities. That is what just six bottles
of .Tanlac, the medicine you call the
master medicine, has done for me. :"
The speaker of this more than re-
nla rkable statement was Il. +. Darby,
an automobile mechanic employed by
the Central Garage of Anderson, S.
c., who resides at 1877 North McDuf-
fie sstreet. Mr. Darby was for one
year foreman TO- a Columbia machin-
cry company. which is one of the
largest enterprises Of it's kind In the
South, he said. He explained that i'll
health forced his removal from Co.
lumbia in search Of a satisfactory
change in climate. But it was not the
climate, he found, that caused his ill
health.
Regarding his suffering and the re-
nla rkable relief Tanlac quickly gave
him, MI. Darby said:

AGREEMENT ABOUT COMPLETE
Between United States Forces and
Mexican Military Heads.

Ell Paso, Texas, May 3.-Mexican
Minister of War Obregon to-day re-
ceived word from Mexico City to ac-
cept the demands of the Washington
government as made at the confer
emce just held here. The American
troops will remain in Mexico indefi-
nitely, cooperating with the Carran-
zista soldiers, in running down Pan
cho Villa and his bandits. This in
formation was at once communicat-
ed to Chief of STAFF Scott and Major
Gen. Funston in their private car
here.
This means that the policy of Pres
ident Wilson and Secretary of War
Baker has been accepted and ratified
by the Carranzista government
American troops under Gen. John
j. Pershing will remain where they
are concentrated around Namiquipa
and will be augmented by additional
forces sent south in Chihuahua from
Columbus.
In the absence Of official informa-
ton as to the details OF the agree
ment, well-detined rumors set forth
the following:
]. That the American expedition
will remain in Mexico within cer-
tain time limit, which will be deter
mined by the progress the Carranzis-
ia troops make in their operations
against Francisco Villa and other
outlaw leaders.
z. That the extreme southern base
OF Gen. Per5hing's expedition shall be
moved back to COlonia, Dublan.
3. That the American troops shall
confine their activities chiefly to pa
troll duties, with occasional forays af-
ter marauding parties, the limits of
their movements being strictly out
lined.
d. That when the American troops
see an opportunity to strike a decis-
i've blow at bandit bands, Carranzis-
ia forces shall be ordered to give full
and active cooperation.
5. That the use Of Mexican rail-
| ways shall be granted for the trans
port Of supplies to the American SOL
! diers.
The only element OF uncertainty
with reference to the situation to-day
is the manner in which the Mexican
public will accept the terms made by
Gen. Obregon. There is no doubt
that he can enforce his decisions with
| the troops that have been concen-
| trated in Northern Mexico, but objec-
tions to the continued presence Of the
American troops may result in local
disturbances for a time.
Strengthens Cordial Relations.
! Washington, May 4.-President
| Wilson announced tonight that the
tentative agreement between Gen.
Scott and Gen. Obregon covering the
future operations of the American
and Mexican military forces in Mex
leo provides "a basis of cooperation
which promises to prevent misunder-
standings and strengthens the cor
dial relations of the two republics" "
| Notification that the plan Of coop
erative action in the Mexican border
region mapped out at the Ell Paso
conference Is acceptable to the Wash
ington government was forwarded to
Gen. Scott late to-day by Secretary
Baker. Pending it's formal accept
ance by Gen. CarranZa, administra-
tion officials declined to make public
the text OF the agreement. There
was no doubt in official circles, how
ever, that the plan would be ratified
within few hours at most and the
disturbing situation on the border
and in northern Mexico be disposed
of.
