WHAT DR.. CALDWELL
LEARNED IN AZ
YEARS PRACTICE

A physician watched the results of
constipation for AZ years, and believed
that no matter how careful people are of
their health, diet and exercise, constipa-
ton will occur from time to time. Of
next Importance, then, is how to treat
it when it comes. DR.. Caldwell always
was in favor of getting as close to nature
as possible, hence his remedy for consti-
patton, known as DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup
Pepsin, is mild vegetable compound.
1t can not harm the system and is not
habit forming. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant
tasting, and youngsters love it.
DR.. Caldwell did not approve of
drastic physics and purges. He did not
believe they were good for anybody 8
system. In q practice of AZ years he
never saw any reason for their use when
Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just
as promptly.
Do not let day go by without a
bowel movement Do not sit and hope,
but go to the nearest druggist and get
one of the generous bottles of Dr. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, or write Syrup

Catalina Island Yields
MANY Ancient Treasures

Avalon, Santa Catalina 1Slanu, Sdl.
An attempt to follow ancient trails
to the long-lost island temple OF
Chinigchinich, the Sun God, has re-
suited instead in the discovery OF the
burial place of a small Indian prin-
cess Of 5000 years ago and evidence
indicating that child sacrifices were
made in wholesale fashion by tribes
Of the Channel islands, off the coast
of California.
!. Within a stone urn weighing 1S4
pounds and fashioned skillfully as
though by modern tools was found
the skeleton of an Indian girl be-
tween five and seven years. Her
hands apparently had clutched the
rim of an urn, whose rich ornamental
ton of wampum bespeaks her royal
lineage.
In a circle with the urn as a CEN
ter were counted by Prof. Ralph Gid
den, curator of the Catalina museum
Of Channel island Indians, the skele-
tons of ga children buried in tiers
four deep with small heads touching
each other.
Beneath them was the skeleton of
a seven-foot man. A spear blade still
was fixed in the ribs.
The sand within the funeral urn
had the appearance of ground crystal
apparently, according to the discov-
erer, a sacred sand used in the burial
of Indian royalty-and was far diff
ferent from that which had sifted
over the graves Of the other children.
These finds as we'll as a wealth of
obsidian knives, spear points and ar
row heads and hundreds of other ar
ticles of wampum-inlaid stone and
bone have provided material over
which Glidden has puzzled since he
discovered them.
One thin piece of slate he believes
to be stone map, holes having been
drilled to indicate trails to the four
main burying grounds on Santa Cata-
lima island.
'It is plausible" Glidden said, "that
the strange child burial within the
urn and those surrounding it were
the result of natural death of a
little girl of high rank and the STAY
ing of Ga attendants and playmates
with her. Or they all may have been
killed in some religious ceremonial
rite.
''It is even possible the princess may
have been given some potion and bur-
led alive. The way the small hands
clutched the outer rim of the bowl
malyoo thic q nhccihi1itv
Wampum inlaid in four broken
circles on the rim of the urn with
"gates'' leading to the four points OF
the compass lead Glidden to believe
the burial place may be near the site
Of the temple of Chinigchinich.

Contrary to popular belief, yellow

reservoir of yellow fever in certain
monkeys of Africa, and public health
