Mothers are giving it to their
children who were given it by
their mothers. Every second of
the working day someone some
where is going into a drug store to
buy it, for DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is selling at the rate of over
e million bottles year.
It's great success is based on
merit, on repeated buying, on one
satisfied user telling another.
There are thousands of homes in
this country that are never with
out bottle of Syrup Pepsin, and
the formulator of that prescrip-
ton is fortunately living to see its
wonderful success.
Women, children and elderly
people are especially benefited
by DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
While it is promptly effective on
the most robust constitution and
in the most obstinate cases, it is
mild and gentle in its action and
does not cause gripping and strain.
Containing neither opiates nor
narcotics, it is safe for the tiniest
baby and children ike it and take
it willingly.
Every drug store sells DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. Keep a
bottle in your home. Where
many live someone is sure to need
it quickly.

Are you thoroughly satisfied with
the result of the election? OF course
not. People are never satisfied, no
matter what happens. The fellow who
bet his money and lost is not satisfied
and the fellow who won wishes he had
bet more, and so it goes. Then there
is the guy who didn't bet at all. He's
wishing he had. But after all the
election is over, and we are glad of it.
It's worse since the women got to
voting. Some houses are decorated
with both candidates for President.
This does not indicate that a mug
wump resides there. 1t indicates that
he's one way and she's t'other and that
more than once during the campaign
hell's been a-poppin in that house.
Another thing: Old Cupid has got to
study this matter over pretty thor
oughly or he's going to get folks into
a DANCED lot Of trouble. He must see
that she's of the same political com
pIeNiOn that he who seeks her hand is
or the dickens will be to pay. He may
want to raise the children up to be
Republicans while she might want
them to wear only one "gallus" and
vote the Democratic ticket. See?-

WEEKLY NEWS LETTER
FROM THE SOUTHEAST
MISSOURI STATE COLLEGE
Bacteriology in the Southeast Nilsson
ri State Teachers College.
PAGE SIX

ri State Teachers College.
The Biology Department of the
Southeast Missouri State Teachers
College has new piece of apparatus
known as the autocIave or a steam
pressure steriIizer. The class in bac-
teriology which makes a study of mi
cro-organisms, commonly called
germs, that cause disease uses the au-
tOclave in preparing material for
raising the germs.
Beef broth is one of the prepare
tons for germ culture. Thin glass
tubes about six inches long and half
inch in diameter are partly filled with
the broth, plugged with cotton and
placed in the autoclave. After cook
ing for fifteen minutes with the pres
sure at fifteen pounds all the germs
that cause broth to spoil are killed,
and the broth will keep in these tubes
for months without spelling even
though there are only cotton plugs
between it and the air
When student wants to study Il
certain ki"d Of germ, say one that is
causing some sort Of sickness, he oh
tains a few of the germs from the pa
tient ard places them in the grem-
free broth Of one Of these tubes. In
the broth the germs multiply rapidly,
and as there are no other germs pres
ent, it is possible to make careful
study of them under the microscope.
Some of these germs are less than a
en-thOusandth of an inch in length,
but they may be seen with a micro
