An EfeciUe LaxatiUe
For Gr0zving Children
DIR. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
a 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-
Gus illness. The experienced mother
knows that by training her children to
regularity in this respect, and when &C.
casion arises administering a mild
laxative, she will have little need for
the doctors services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1851 Central Ave,
n. S., Pittsburg, Pa, whose two boys.
Frank and Joseph. are shown in the il
lustration, writes that she has found
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin most eff
fective laxative, not only for the chill
dren but also for herself, and that she
will always keep it in the house to use
when needed. DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin Is 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.

BOB FITzSIMM0NS DIED POOR
Estimated He Made S250,ooo in Ring, Besides $5o,ooo He Received From
 Moving Pictures.

Improvidence seems to be the rule among boxers, most of whom will not lay aside something for a rainy day. When Bob Fitzsimmons died recently he left nothing in money or property. Yet he earned a fortune in the ring. He settled a house and many thou sands of dollars on his second wife, Rose Julian. and her children. He re- ceived S10000 from his two battles with Maher, S4,000 from his bout with Hall, about S20000 from his scrap with Cor bett at Carson City, s6960 for whip ping Dan Creedon. S15,0OO for two bouts with Tom Sharkey, S2O,000 for two battles with Jeffries, $10000 for the contest with Gus Ruhlin and many thousands more for other ring exhibi- tions.
 In all it is estimated that Fitz made S250-000 in the ring, besides which he received about S50,00O from moving pictures of his fights. He made many unwise investments and was a mark for adventurers and bunco men, be- sides which his generosity was re- sponsible for further scattering the thousands he had accumulated.

Arkansas Woman Declares She Spent Many Dollars in Vain Attempt to Gain Relief

I certainly don't begrudge the few dollars I've paid for this medi- cine for it has proven to be worth many times the cost. in giving me such remarkable relief"
 Mrs. J. J. Carter of Argenta, Ark, made the above remarkable statement recently.

 Well, sir, as I said Orgatone has certainly been a great help in my case. l have not only gained fourteen pounds in weight. but am feeling like a new woman. I now sleep well at night and get up in the morning feeling just dandy. No, sir, I'll not hesitate to recommend Orgatone to anyone"

ROSS OUGHT TO SPECIALIZE
Olympic Club Star Is Making Mistake in Not Concentrating His Ef-
 forts, Say Swimmers.

Men well posted in swimming af- fairs, as well as number of expert swimmers, have expressed the opinion that Norman Ross, the Olympic club star and holder of a dozen or more national and world records in various swimming events, is making a mis- take in not specializing and concen- trating his efforts.
 Ross is admitted to be one of the most versatile mermen that ever took to the water, and has shown his prow- ess in both long and short distance events.
 From the 50-yard sprint to the gruel- ing mile swim across the Golden Gate, Ross has achieved fame, but the con tention is made that Ross is naturally an athlete most likely to achieve dis tiReti0n in the 220 and 440-yard events.
 By specializing in these it is main tained that he would eventually set figures for these swims that it would take years to beat, with the likeli- hood that he might establish marks which would keep him in the records for a long time after his swimming days, if not for all time.
 In attempting to negotiate all kinds of swims and distances. the conten- tion is made that while Ross may win and even break records, these figures will not be as decisive, and may soon be bettered by other men who special iZe.

 Throughout the process of making the vaccine is guarded against any con- tamination. It is then stored in sealed vessels in locked refrigerators, to which only the two officers in charge have keys, and none of these vessels is ever moved, except in company of one of the officers. In more than six months of large-scale production not q trace of contamination has beeR found.
