Most Old People Are Constipated

The wear of years irnpairs the action of the bowels. As people grow older they restrict their activity, neglect to take sufficient exercise, and indulge natural disposition to take things easy. The digestive organs become more sensitive to the demands made upon them and rebel more quickly.
 It is of special importance to the health of elderly people that the bowels be kept normally active. A mild, yet effective, remedy for constipation. and one that is especially suited to the needs of old folks, women and children, is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold in drug stores under the name of Dr.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It costs only fifty cents a bottle, and should be in every fanily medicine chest. A trial bottle, free of charge, can bs obtained by writing to Dr. w. B. Caldwell, 456 Wash ington St., Monticello. Illinois.
