Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell is Right

The basis OF treating sickness has

placed on the market the laxative
prescription he had used in his
practice, knOwn to druggists and
the public since 1892, as DR.. Cald
wells Syrup Pepsin.
Then, the treatment of constipa-
ton. biliousness. headaches. mental
depression. indigestion, sour stomach
and other indispositions that result
from constipation was entirely BY
means of simple vegetable laxatives,
herbs and roots. These are still
the basis OF DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. which is a combination Of
SIENNA and other mild laxative herbs
with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for con.
stipation, the safer for the child
and for you, and the better for the
general heath of all. And as you
can get results in mild and safe
way by using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, why take chances with
strong drugs?
A bottle OF DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin will last a family several
months, and all can use II. 1t IS
