BY the Associated Press.

NANKING, China, January &c.
T. Wang. Nationalist foreign Minister,
and Kenkichi YoShizawa, Japan Minis
ter to China, held long conference
today over the long pending Tsinan in
cident, but found their proposals ire
concilable. Finally, Wang suggested the
appointment of an international COM
mittee to determine the question of
blame
YoshizaWa demanded as a sine qua
non for the withdrawal of the Japanese
forces from Shantung that China should
apologize for the conduct of the Chinese
forces concerned in the Tsinan incident
and that China should give full COM
pensation for all japanese losses at the
same time guaranteeing the safety of
Japanese lives and property In Shan
tung.
Wang said that he regretted his in
ability to accedr to The demand and
made the counter proposal that Japan
should apologize for sending troops into
that province. He said that he agreed
with Yoshizawa's demands regarding
compensation provided Japan, in her
turn, would similarly compensate for
the Chinese losses.

Prescription He Wrote
I'm 1892 is the Worlds
Most Popular Laxative

When DR.. Caldwell started to
practice medicine, back in 1875, the
needs for a laxative were not as
great az they are today. People
lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, and got plenty OF
fresh air and sunshine. But ever
that early there were drastic physics
and purges for the relief of cOnstipa-
ton which DR.. Caldwell did not be-
lieve were good for human beings to
put into their system. So he wrote
a prescription for a laxative to be
used by his patients.
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.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid
vegetable remedy, intended for wo-
men, children and elderly people, and
they need just such a mild, safe,
gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup
Pepsin.
Under successful management this
prescription has proven its worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative in the world. The fact that
millions of bottles are used a year
proves that it has o the confidence
Of people who needed it to get relief
from headaches, biliousness, iatu-
lence, indigestion, loss of appetite
and sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia,
colds and fevers.
