The basis OF treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell left

ne placed OF the market the laxa-
tive 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 stom-
ach and other indispositions that re-
suit from constipation was entirely
by G 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.
The simpler the remedy for consti-
patton, the safer for the child and for
you, and the better for the general
health of all. And as you can get
results in a mild and safe way by
using Or. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
why take chances with strong drugs3
A bottle of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin will last a family several
months. and all can use il. 10 is
