Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell Was Right

The basis Of treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell lett

placed on the market the laxative
prescription he had used in his prac-
tice. known TO druggists and the
public since 1892. as DR.. Caldwell ;
Syrup Pepsin.
Then. the treatment OF constipa-
ton. biliousncss. 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 DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
which is a combination Of SIENNA and
other mild laxative herbs, with pep
sin.
The simpler the remedy for con-
stipation. the safer for the child and
for you. and the better for the gen.
cral health of all. And as you can
get results in mild and safe way
by using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin. why take chances with strong
drugs:
A bottle of DR.. CaIdwell's Syrup
Pepsin will last a family several
months. and all can use it. Ii is

ny DONALD A CRAIG.

January Is, 1796.--Congress will not
need to appropriate any money to aid
in the erection Of buildings to accom-
modatc the Federal Government In the
new seat Of government, in the opinion
OF select committee of the House,
which submitted report today after
investigating the financial affairs OF
the new city. The report gives an &C.
count OF the progress that has been
made thus far in preparing the city for
its intended uses. and says that In the
opinion of the committee the funds
derivable from the city property ARE
fully adequate without any
aid from the Treasury of the United
States"
According to the report. the expcnd-
lures thus far have amounted to S374,-
$50, which are covered by $192 900 from
the States of Virginia and Maryland,
$96,652 for 200 lots sold to individuals
and S106,578 from the Greenleaf- Nor
ris-Nicholson syndicate, which has con-
tracted TO purchase many lots in the
city. The estimate OF the City Com
missioners as to the value of the lots
still owned by the public. as reported
by the committee. Is 81 ,393, 100. This
figure Is based upon the average price
OF the lots already sold.
The report fails to state that Messrs.
Greenleaf. Morris and Nicholson have
failed to pay the whole of the second
installment of the purchase money on
the lots which they have contracted
to buy The Commissioners are quoted
by the committee. however. as being OF
the opinion that 1t would be unsafe
Ito calculate on strict punctuality In
the payment Of the installmcnts as they
become due" though they assure the
committee that there will eventually
be no loss"

Their consolidated it, position during
1927 with ., net gain Of more than
so per cent over the record Of the
previous year.
The remarkable sales Of 1926
gave the Oakland Motor company
something to shoot at" in 1927.
Even during the first three months
following the introduction of the
Pontiac Six to the 1926 New York
Automobile Show, the sales mount
ed t. q new 90-day record of 1000
cars. Two months later the sales
total was $4,000; in the first eight
months Of 1926 it was $4,000 and
the year ended with aggregate sales
of 76,149 units.
Early in 1927, however, the Pom
tiac Six, previously built in the
Oakland Six plant, was transferred
to its own $12,0OO,OOO group Of
model factories which had been
rushed to completion in only seven
months when the 1926 demand in
