An Effective Ld1dtiue
For Growing Children
Dr. CaldUeRs Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
a Fnmilu Remedu

In children the slightest irregularity
of the bowels has tendency to dis
turb the entire digestive system, and
unless promptly remedied invites seri-
Gus 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, 1851 Central Ave.,
N. S., Pittsburgh, Pa, whose two boys,
Frank and Joseph, are shown in the IL
lustration, writes that she has found
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin a most
effective laxative, not only for the
children but also for herself, and thar
she will always keep it in the house TO
use when needed. DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is a combination OF simple
laxative herbs with pepsin that acts
easily and naturally, without gripping
or other pain or discomfort. 1t is pleas
ant to the taste so that children like
it., and is equally effective on the
strongest constitution.

HAD NARROW ESCAPE

velva, N. d. Jan. 23.-Soren Larson,
living Ave miles southwest of Velva,
had a narrow escape from freezing
to death. A real old fashioned storm
was raging during the day and in the
evening about $3.50 o'clock he started
out for the mail box, about a half mile
distant from the house. On his re-
turn to the house he lost his way and
for six hours wandered about the
prairie, lost in the storm. About IL
o'clock he ran into grove Of trees
and called for help. The grove is on
the @. NJ. Lesterberg farm near the
house occupied by Dan Long and just
one mile distant from Mr.. Larson's
place. Mr.. Long had not retired for
the night and hearing the cry went
to his rescue. Mr.. Larson was quite
badly frozen about the face but aside
from that has suffered no i'll effects
from his experience.
