Stomach Distress in Five
Minutes.

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of the food did rhe dam
age-do you? Well, don't bother. If
your stomach is in a revolt; if sour,
gassy and upset, and what you just
ate has fermented into stubborn
Jumps; head dizzy and aches; belch
gases and acids and eructate undigest-
ed food; breath foul, tongue coated
just take little Pape's Diapepsin and
in five minutes you wonder what be-
came of the indigestion and distress.
Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have bad
stomach. "A little Diapepsin occasion
ally keeps this delicate organ regu.
lated and they eat their favorite foods
without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion;
if you food is a damage instead of
help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless relief is Pape's Dia-
pepsin, which costs only fifty cents for
large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful-it digests food and sets
things straight, so gently and easily
that it is really astonishing. Please,
for your sake, don't go on and on with
a weak, disordered stomach; it's SO

This Perfect Laxative
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin an
Ideal Remedy for
Consultation.

In every family there is more or less
occasion for laxative remedy It is
10 meet this need that DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is prepared, and that
this combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin fulfills it's purpose
Is proven by its place in thousands Of
American homes.
Prof. F. j. c. Hertzog. the we'll
known linguist. 2341 North Orianna
St, Philadelphia, Pa. wrote to DR..
Caldwell that he has used Dr. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in his household
with excellent results and that he and
his family consider it indeed a friend
in need. and always keep bottle of it
on hand.
Constipation is the direct cause of
much serious illness and is condition
that should never be neglected. Harsh
cathartics and violent purgatives
should never be employed to relieve
constipation. because the very violence
of their action shocks the entire sys-
tenn. A mild laxative, such as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far prefer
able. being mild and gentle in its act
ion, without gripping or other pain or
discomfort: its freedom from all opiate
or narcotic drugs makes il an ideal
remedy for children.
