The CrueIest Lies

The cruelest lies are often told
in silence. A man may have sat
in a room for hours and not opened
his mouth, and yet come out Of
that room a disloyal friend or vile
calumniator. And how many loves
have persisted because, from pride
or spite, or diffidence, or that I'M
manly shame which withholds a man
from daring to betray emotion, or
love, at the critical point of the
relation, he has but hung his head
and held his tongue ?-Robert Louis
Stevenson.

What Dr.. Caldwell Learned
in AZ Years Practice

DR.. Caldwell watched the re-
suits of constipation for AZ
years, and believed that no mat
ter how careful people are OF
their health, diet and exercise,
constipation will occur from
time to time regardless of how
much one tries to avoid it. OF
next Importance, then, is how to
treat it when it comes. DR.. Cald-
well always was in favor of get
ting as close to nature as possible,
hence his remedy for constipa-
tion, known as DR.. CaldwelIS
Syrup Pepsin, is mild vegetable
compound. 1t cannot harm the
most delicate system and is not
a habit forming preparation.
Syrup Pepsin is pleaSant-taSt-
ing, and youngsters love it. 1t
does not grippe. Thousands of
mothers have written us to that
effect.
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. In a. practice
of At years he never saw any
reason for their use when a
medicine like Syrup Pepsin will
e empty the bowels just as
promptly, more cleanly and
gently without gripping and
harm to the system.
Keep free from constipation! !.
1t robs your strength, hardenS
your arteries and brings on pre-
mature old age. Do not let a
day go by without a bowel
movement. Do not sit and hope,
but go to a druggist and get one
of the generous bottles of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup PepSin. Take
the proper dose that night and

and you can make elegant things
with it, meat balls and hash and

But when she left the shop
she had a new pair of second

a goodisl, clean kitchen apron,
she wore that home. too. At the

would she just think there's a

II really was a little too bad
that the poor little woman saw
