Elderly People Need This
In Medicine Chest
To relieve chronic constipation, Glways
keep bottle Of Dr.. caldweITs
Syrup Pspsin handy.

NEARLY I'll people as they advance
Az In age suffer from chronic c0nstipa-
ton. Many, however, are indifferent to
the laxative they use, on the theory that
they are all alike" That is a great
mistake.
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin, for ex,
ample, IL a mild, gentle liquid laxative,
and it does not lose its effect with re-
peated use. II so trains the bowel
muscles that in time medicines OF all
kinds can be dispensed with.
A sixty-cent bottle Of DR.. CaldweIl's
Syrup Pepsin will last many months.
The prescription was written thirty
years ago by Dr. w. b. Caldwell, a we'll
known family doctor, who is himself
now in his Sind year and can ap-
p7eciate what chronic constipation
must mean 10 elderly people; how ii
brings on headaches, colds, loss Of ap-
petite and sleep, heayiness and a
general dull feeling.
Every home that has an elderly man
or woman should be provided with a
bottle of DIR. Csldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
Eight million bottles were bought at
drug stores last year. II is truly
wonderful constipation remedy.
