Doctor at 83 Found People
Preferred His Prescription

The basis Of treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell left
Medical College in 1875. nor since
1e placed on the market the laxa-
tive 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-
tion, biliousness, headaches, mental
depression, Indigestion, sour stom-
ach and other indispositions that re-
suit from constipation was entirely
by means Of simple vegetable laxa-
tives, herbs and roots. These are
still the basis Of DIR. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin, which is a combination
of SIENNA and other mild laxative
herbs, with pepsin.
DR.. Caldwell did not approve Of
drastic physics and purges. He did
not believe they were good for hui
man beings to put into their sys-
TEN. 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-
stipation, the safer for the child and
for you, and the better for the gen.
eral health Of all. And as you can
get results in a mild and safe way
by using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, why take chances with strong
