S., Pittsburg, Pa, whose two boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown in the illustration, writes that she has found Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin a most effective laxative, not only for the children but also for herself, and that she will always keep it Tn the house to use when needed. pr: Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts easily and naturally. with out griping or other pain or discom fort. It is pleasant to the taste sc that children like it. and is equally effective on the strongest constitution
