Doctor at SO Found People
| Preferred His Prescription

The basis of treating sickness
has not changed since DR.. Caldwell
left Medical College in 1875. nos
since he placed on the market the
laxative prescription he had used
in his practice, known to druggists
and the public since 1892, as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
Then, the treatment of constipa-
ton, biliousness, headaches. mental
depression, Indigestion, sour stom-
ach and other interpretations that
result from constipation was en-
tirely by means Of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs and roots These
are still the basis Of DIR. CaldweIl's
Syrup Pepsin, which is a combina.
ton of SIENNA and other mild laxa-
tive herbs. with pepsin.
DR.. Caldwell did not approve of
drastic physics and purges. He
did not believe they were good for
human beings to put into their
system. If grown people want TO
use them no one can deny them
the privilege, but they should never
be given to children.
The simpler the remedy for con-
etipation, the safer for the child
and for you, and the better for the
general health of all. And as you
can get results in a mild and safe
way by using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, why take chances with
strong drugs? All drug stores have
the generous bottles.

ORGANIST STAR
OF THE ETHER

Heavy and continuous dis
charges OF static made last eve
ming q good one to remain with
the home broadcast station. The
condition seemed to be continuous
throughout the night. In the early
evening there were q few high
power stations that could be
tuned, and they were to be found
later on also. but there was little
pleasure in listening to them.
Aside from the anniversary cele-
bration of the South Sea Islanders
and the mastery organ playing of
Gottfried H. Federlein of Temple
Emanuel, New York, the loud
speaker deliveries last evening
were largely a total loss to us
for the very simple reason that the
necessities Of an At Home" pro.
gram for Saturday night, next. d.
voced us from the vicinity of 4
receiving set most of the evening.
But
The organ playing Of Federlein
makes the memory and record of
the evening stand out as clearly
and distinctly, and fills it as COM
pletely as the usual five and a
half to six hours at the tuning
dials ordinarily do. We had a
bunch Federlein was prepared to
play the organ--really play it,
and we advised listeners to tu'ne
In his performance during the Or
gan Masters" hour.
He did exactly what we'd hoped
and gave those who followed our
advice half hour of lovely music
the kind an organist can play for
"a mixed audience and be sure to
both exhibit his skill and present
the finest kind of music. The Mas
senet "Elegy," Chcpin's 9th Noe
torne, the Evening Star" song
from Tannehauser and the exquisite
organ accomplishments for George
O'Brien's fine tenor solos provided
a happy twilight hour.
The South Sea islanders, in cele-
brating their first anniversary as
radio entertainers played most of
the things that have been popular
on their programs during the year.
In the presentation of Alfred
Sutro's very good play, open
Door" by the Washington Drama
tic Club--we think it is called
John Daniels substituted for the
leading man and read the part in
diligently. That is considerably
more than most leading men of re-
cent radio dramatic performances
have been doing and we'd much
prefer Daniels readings to some
of the productions we've heard by
the very inexperienced players who
attempt entertainment of the most
xacting and sophisticated audience
In the world-the loud speaker
brigade!

80 FEARED lost
ON STEAMER

MANILA, p. l., June Between
so and 100 passengers aboard the
steamer Negroes were missing today
following the sinking OF the vessel
in a terrific typhoon off Romblon
Island.
Fate Of the passengers unac-
counted for will not be known for
several days as the ship sank off
a barren coast which cannot be
reached by land. Survivors told Of
seeing many bodies washed upon
the shore. Even living victims
reaching the bleak coast will die,
it was said, because motor boats
cannot navigate the choppy seas
and larger vessels cannot thread
a path between the tiny islands.
The captain and two officers Of
the Negros are among the missing.
They are believed to be drowned.
Acting Governor General Gilmore
ordered the constabulary and a
corps Of doctors to go to the scene
Of the disaster and to search for
and assist survivors OF the wreck.
The Negroes was plying in the
inter-island trade. Caught in the
vortex Of the tropical maelstrom,
the ship foundered almost imme.
diately.
