Africa Imports Bugs

South africa hasn't enough bugs Oh
It's own; it has to send TO California
for additional supplies. However, the
impOrtatiOnS are of useful insects, the
ladybird beetles, which have been
found highly useful friends of orchard
lists in the American West. South At
rican trees were suffering from the
attack of perniciOus mealybug, and
trial showed that the voraciOus little
spotted beetles from America had
large appetites for the troublesome
creatures. 1t IS hoped that the i'm
ported American stock can be in
creased and that an efficient fighting
army of insects can be recruited from
their descendants.

SAME PRESCRIPTION
HE WROTE IN 1892

When DR.. Caldwell started to practice
medicine, back in 1875, the needs for q
laxative were not as great as today.
People lived normal lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, and got plenty of fresh
air. But even that early there were
drastic physics and purges for the relief
of constipation which DR.. Caldwell did
not believe were good for human beings
The prescription for constipation that
he used early in his practice, and which
he put in drug stores in 1892 under the
name of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
is liquid vegetable remedy, intended
for women, children and elderly people,
and they need just such mild. safa
bowel stimulant.
This prescription has proven its worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative. 1t has won the confidence of
people who needed it to get relief from
headaches, biliousness, fatulence, indi-
gestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad
breath, dyspepsia, colds, fevers. At your
druggist, or write Syrup Pepsin,"

into the spotless kitchen and provided
him with one of her own blue ging-
ham aprons. She set the kettles of
bayberry tallow on the stove to heat,
