Most Old People
Are Constipated

The wear Of years ;mpairs the
action of the bowels. As people
grow older they restrict their
activity, neglect to take sufficient
exercise. and indulge a natural
disposition to take things easy.
The digestive organs become
more sensitive to the demands
made upon them and rebel moro
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 family medicine chest.
A trial bottle, free of charge,
can be obtained by writing to

MEMBERS WANT TO LOOK AFTER
THEIR POLITICAL FENCES AT HOME.
A thirty days recess of the House
now seems assured and in that event
the members, or most of them, will
be privileged to do a little fixing of
their political fences before August
primaries. Democratic leader Kitch-
in said today that the house would
be ready to quit business for thirty
days about July l or 2, or for such
length of time as may be required
by the Ways and Means Committee
to draft the new emergency revenue
bill.
By the first week in July, accord
ing to Mr.. Kitebin. the House will
have cleared the calendar of all ur-
gent or necessary legislation, with
special reference to appropriation
bills, and after that is done there
will be nothing to engage its atten-
ton until the Ways and Means Com
mittee reports out the revenue bill.
