Hope Almost Abandoned
When She Found Remedy
Or. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin
Relieves Chronic Case of
Long Standing.

After a long period of suffering with
liver and bowel trouble that brought on
piles, during which she had tried many
remedies without obtaining relief, Mrs.
Mary J. Jewell, of Berrien Springs,
Mich, heard Of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin and obtained a bottle from her
druggist. This simple. inexpensive
laxative compound brought almost i'm
mediate relief and Mrs. Jewell wrote
to DR.. Caldwell about her case.
In her letter Mrs. Jewell says. II had
tried so many things for the piles,
without being helped at all, had
about given up hope Of ever being any
better. I knew it was the condition
Of my bowels that caused them. and
after I had taken a bottle Of your

ings have been transmitted to the At
torney-General.
Prices are declared to have been
raised arbitrarily although natural
causes contributed. Pronounced price
inequalities We're found in different
parts of the country.
The principal findings Of the COM
mission are:
That in most marketing territories the
Standard Companies are dominant
That the Standard Companies have
maintained a distribution of territory in
marketing gasoline. and that no sub
stantial competition in the chief petro-
leum products exists among the stand
ard companies.
That the absence Of competition is
due to a community of stock owner
ship.
That the facts disclose advances in
prices Of gasoline and differences in
price, corresponding to Standard mar
keting territories, which could not be
explained except under the conditions
charged.
That the combination of pipe lines
with other branches Of the industry
has tended to establish and perpetuate
monopoly.
That there is no conclusive evidence
of collision among the Standard Com
panies in violation Of the dissolution
decree.
The commission recommended these
measures as necessary to remedy con-
