 It will be difficult for London to handle great influx of people this summer, say the managers, and they expect many disappointments among Americans who even attempt to ar range accommodations some time ahead of arrival. The better hotels of the city cannot find room for more than 4,OO0 at once. They are full now and
 many people have engaged rooms months ahead.
 Some Englishmen who have return ed from the United States estimate

The widely printed report to the effect that Charles Ray has been spending a vacation in New York city is erroneous. Ray is such an in dustrious fellow that his friends charge him with not taking enough time for recreation but he did tear himself away for a trip through California before beginning his new First Ma uonal picture, "45 Minutes from Broadway" Ray still has ahead of him the treat of his first visit to the national metropolis his active life hay ing always kept him in the west.

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. CaldweH's Syrup Pepsin is selling at the rate of over 6 million bottles a year.
 Its 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 it's 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 eases, 1t is mild and gentle in it's action and does not cause gripping and strain. Containing neither opiates nor narcotics, 1t is safe for the tiniest baby and children like 1t 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.

ANCIENT CITY
 OF MEXICO IS IN OIL LANDS

Mexico City, Feb. 27.-The ruins of Palenque in the state of Chiapas, marking the site of city whose origin and inhabitants are unknown are to become the site of petroleum development, General Norberto Rochin having been given a conces- sion by the Department of Com merce and Labor to exploit the re zion.
 The ruins lie in the midst of a dense forest and were discovered in 1750 by a party of exploring Span iards. They indicate the former ex- istence of a large and prosperous city. There is no history of what people built there or where they have gone. For years the ruins have been a source of curiosity to archeoIogists.

DR- W. B. Caldwell of Mon
 ticelo, Illinois, vas and is a family doctor. The whole human body, not any small part of it, was his practice. More than half his t'caIls' were on women, children and babies. They are the ones most often sick. But their illnesses were usually of a minor nature-colds, fevers, head aches, bilioumess-and all of them required first a thorough evacuation. They were constipated.
 Dr. Caldwell in the course of 40 years practice, for he was grad uated from Rush Medical College back in 1875, had found a good deal of success in such cases with a prescription of his own contain ing simple laxative herbs with pepsin. In 1892 he decided to use this formula in the manufac- tme of a medicine to be known as Dr. CaIdweIrs Syrup Pepsin, and in that year the preparation was first placed on the market. The picture of Dr. Caldwell that ap- pears on the package vas taken in that year.
 The preparation immediately had as great a success in the drug stores as it previously had in the doctors private practice. Today the third generation is using it.

Middle Western Fans
 Think Pesek Is Good

Reports which have come from the Middle West of rapid strides being made by John Pesek in the grappling game have aroused no little interest and mat fans are rather anxious to see him in action. Pesek, like Joe Stecher, is a native of Nebraska and he's almost as popular in the corn belt as is the champion himself. He has beaten many good men in that section of the country and is reck- oned out there, at least, as a danger ous contender for the title.
