An Effective Laxative B
For Gro,Ding Children
DR.. CaIdwePs Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
a Family Remedy

In children the slightest Irregular
ity of the bowels has a tendency to
disturb the entire digestive system,
and unless promptly remedied invites
serious illness. The experienced moth
er knows that by training her children
to regularity in this respect. and when
occasion arises administering a mild
laxative, she will have little need for
the Doctors services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1881 Central Ave-,
N. s., PittSburg, Pa, whose two boys,
Frank and Joseph, are shown in the il
lustration, writes that she has found
DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin a most ef-
fective laxative, not only for the chill
dren but also for herself, and that she
will always keep it in the house to use
when needed. DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup
Pepsin is a combination of simple laXa-
tive herbs with pepsin that acts easily
and naturally, without gripping or other
pain or discomfort. 1t is pleasant to
taste so that children like it, and is
equally effective on the strongest con-
stitution.

PRESIDENT PUSHES
PLAN FOR ACTION
ON RAILROAD BILL
Makes Special Trip to Capitol
to Confer With Senator
NewIandS-ViSit Unexpected
and ArOuSeS Interest

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9l.-President
Wilson emphasized his desire for rail-
road legislation supp, ementary to the
Adamson law by making a special trip
10 the capitol to confer VITA Senator
Newlands, chairman of the commerce
committee, who will have charge OF ex-
pediting through congress the measures
recommended by the president in his
recent message.
Mr.. Wilson found Senator Newlands
preparing for committee hearings on
the railroad measures, to begin next
Tuesday. The presidents arrival at the
senate office building late in the day
was unexpected by memb ers of con-
gress generally and the visit aroused
unusual interest in the railroad situa-
ton.
Although Senator Newlands would
not discuss the conference II was learn
ed from an authoritative source that
recent railroad developments pending
settlement of the constitutionality Of
the Adamson act have not altered the
presidents view regarding supplement
tary Legislation and that he still par
ticularly desires passage at this Ses-
sion of the measures he recommended.
They are designed TO prevent railroad
strikes pending investigation of dis
putes, and to empower the president to
take over railroad, telegraph and tele-
phone lines in times of military neces-
sity.
This desire Mr.. Wilson is understood
to have presented earnestly to Senator
Newlands. Tonight the senator said he
proposed ito urge action on the arbi-
tration bill and other railroad measures
as soon as possible"
II do not know what the other mem
bers of the committee think" he added,
but 1 will try to conclude hearings
which begin Tuesday morning on the
arbitration bill within two or three
days"
Whether President Wilson disclosed
any alarm over reports of a threaten
ed strike since negotiations between
brotherhood officials and railroad man.
ayers in New York were broken off
could not be learned.
After his visit to Senator Newlands
the president sought to locate Repre-
sentative Adamson, who has charge Of
the railroad legislation in the house,
but learned that he had not returned to
Washington from his holiday vacation.
Senator Newlands, speaking of the
railroad situation generally, said he did
not believe there was any immediate
danger o ia strike and that
the railroad employees would await
the deliberate judgment of congress re-
garding legislation on the subject.
President Wilson has not kept in
touch with details of the negotiations
between brotherhood representatives
and the railroads, but is understood to
fear that the failure to reach an agree
ment may lead to reopening of the en-
tire. controversy. He feels that there
has been enough public discussion OF
the points at issue to allow congress to
act promptly.

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-The Teutonic
armies in Rumania and along the Mol
davian frontier continue to drive for

ward along the Moldavian frontier TO
the valley of the Putna river.

mics are being delivered along the rail-
road line running northward from Rim
nik-Sarat TO rokshani and they have
forced the lines of the defenders back
ward on the front from the Danube to
the Carpathians. The invaders have cap
tured Bordestchi, on the RimEik river,

Zaletsi, northeast of Rimnik-Sarat.
The Teutonic line, in the battle now
in progress, runs northward of Rim
nik-Sarat through Slobozia midway. be-
tween that town and Plainechti. In at
