Doctor Found What is Best
for Thin, Constipated People

As o family doctor at Monticello,
Illinois, the whole human body, not

'calls" were on women, children and
babies. They are the ones most of
ten sick. But their illnesses were
usually of a minor nature-colds,
fevers, headaches, biliousness-and
all of them required first thorough
evacuation. They were constipated.
In the course Of his AZ years. prac-
tice (he was graduated from Rush
Medical College back in 1879, he
found good deal of success in such
cases with prescription of his own
containing simple laxative herbs
with pepsin. In 1892 he decided to
use this formula in tke manufacture
Of a medicine to be known as DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and in that
year his prescription was first placed
On the market.
The preparation Immediately had

It to their children who were given
It by their mothers. Every second
Of the working day someone some
where is going into drug store to
buy it. Millions of bottles of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are being
used year.
It's great success is based on merit,
On repeated buying, on one satisfied
user telling another. There are thou
