Doctor Found Women
and Children Sick
More Often than Men

As a family doctor at Monticello,
Illinois, the whole human body, not
any small part OF II, was DR.. Cald-
wells practice. More than half his
calls were on women, children and
babies. They are the ones most Of
ten sick. But their illnesses were
usually of a minor nature-colds.
~feyers, headaches, biliOusness-and
all Of them required first a thorough
evacuation. They were cOnstipated.
In the course of DIR. Caldwell's AZ
years practice The was graduated
from Rush Medical College back in
1879, he found q good deal OF sue
cess in such cases with a prescrip-
tion Of his WI containing simple
laxative herbs with pepsin. In lS92
he decided To use this formula in the
manufacture of a medicine to be
known as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, and in that year his %preserip-
ton was first placed on the market.
The preparation Immediately had
as great a success in the drug stores
rs it previously had in pr. Cald-
wells private practice. Now, the
third generation ID using ii. Moth
ers are giving it TO their children
who were given il by their mothers.
Every second Of the working day
someone somewhere il going into a
drug store to buy il. Millions Of
bottles Of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin are being used a year.
It's great success il based on merit,
on repeated buying, on one satisfied
user telling another. There are
thousands of homes in this country
that are never without a bottle of
DR.. CaldweIl's Syrup Pepsin, and
we have gotten many hundreds Of
letters from grateful people telling
us that il helped them when every
