An Effective Laxative
 For Growing Children
Dr.. CaldiDeD's Syrup Pepsir, Highly Reconanaerded as
 q Family Remedy

In children the slightest irregularity of the bowels has a tendency to dis turb the entire digestive system, and unless promptly remedied invites seri- ous illness. The experienced mother 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, 3251 Central Ave, N: S., Pittsburg, Pa, whose two boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in the illustration. writes that she has found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin a most effective laxative, not only for the children but also for herself, and that she will always keep 1t in the house to use when needed. Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin is combination of simple laxative herbs wit5l pepsin that acts easily and naturally, with out griping or other pain or discom fort. It is pleasant to the taste GO that children like it, and is equally effective on the strongest constitution.
