What DR.. Caldwell Learned
in az Years Practice

DR., Caldwell watched the results
of constipation for AZ years, and
believed that no matter how careful
people are of their health, diet and
exercise, constipation will occur
from time to time regardless of
how much one tries to avoid 1t. OF
next Importance, then, is how to
treat it when it comes. DIR. Caldwell
always was in favor of getting as
close to nature as possible. hence
his remedy for constipation, known
as DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. is
q mild vegetable compound. 1t can
not harm the most delicate system
and is not a habit forming prepara-
ton. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant-tast-
ing, and youngsters love it. 1t does
not gripe. Thousands of mothers
have written us to that effect.
DR.. Caldwell did not approve of
drastic physics and purges. He did
not believe they were good for hui
man beings to put into their system.
In a practice of Al years he never
saw any reason for their use when
q medicine like Syrup Pepsin will
empty the bowels just as promptly,
more cleanly and gently without
gripping and harm to the system.
Keep free from constipation!' II
robs your strength, hardens your
arteries and brings on premature
old age. Do not let a day go by
without a bowel movement. Do not
sit and hope, but go to a druggist
and get one of the generous bottles

Fears Of Films Found
Unwarranted By
Scientist

NEW YORK. April 20 q.N.s).
Mothers need not fear the effect
of crime and sex movies upon
their sons and daughters, accord
ing to DR.. ]. L. Holmes. eminent
psychologist Of Columbia Uni.
versity.
"The movies rarely lead young
folks astray," DR.. Holmes de-
clared today in announcing the
results of tests on 500 school
children taken from public and
private schools throughout New
York city and State.
The chief thing remembered
by children after viewing films
of this type. according to DR..
Holmes, is that the villain always

KLEIN SEES ]. S.
AS Bis AID To
EUROPE

American commerce will benefit
substantially from the complete eco
nomic recovery European coun.
tries, Dr. Julius Klein assistant Sec.
retary of Commerce declared yester-
day.
DR.. Klein based his opinion on OBJ
servations gained recently while at
tending a conference. OF the European
staff Of the department.
While the recovery of European
Industries might result in keener
competition for neutral world mar
kets. DIR. Klein said any loss In this
direction would be more than offset
by the increased buying power Of
Europe. Final settlement of the
reparations question. he predicted,
would prove vital factor in Europe's s
recovery. He said.
The situation across the Atlantic
not only has q direct bearing upon
the more than one billion dollar
European market for our agri-
cultural exports but also for the
nearly comparable total of wholly
and partly fabricated wares which
we sell to the Old World"
Restrictions against American
moving pictures adopted by several
European countries will ultimately
be removed, Klein said, largely be-
cause of the demand for them by the
peoples of those countries because Of
their Superior quality. n

Dairyman Makes Profits
by Cutting Delivery Costs
Puritan Dairy Changes Brand
of Motor Oil and Makes Big
Savings In Truck Operation
Test run shows 42.2% In
crease in Gasoline Mileage

Whenever owners of motor cars get together
and start claiming mileage records, the only
way to prove or diSprove any statement is to
make a supervised test. Such tests are diff
cult to arrange and supervise. Few motorists
have the time to spare.
But the Puritan Dairy of Red Bank, New
Jersey, wished to use the best oil on the
market for their delivery trucks. No use to
waste hard-earned profits on poorly lubri-
Gated equipment. No reason for keeping
trucks needed to make their appointed rounds
in the repair shop because of worn-out bear
ings. So practical test, to be made while one
of the trucks performed it's regular work,
was arranged by company officials.
Details of Test
The crank case of sturdy G. M. c. truck
was drained, flushed and refled with "Z"
brand of oil-nine quarts all told. The gaso-
kne tank was filled with Standard" Gasoline.
In eight days of running, over regular route,
572 miles were covered, eleven quarts of 'Z"
oil were used (nine had been added after the
first day of driving) and 8Ogallons of Stand
ard" Gasoline were consumed.
Drained, flushed and reilled with Standard"
Motor Oil and Standard Gasoline, the
truck started on its rounds again. The same
route was followed. Another eight days
passed. Somehow $50 miles were clocked on
the speedometer this time. But only 81 gal
Ions of Standard" Gasoline had been used
as against 80 gallons in the previous period
An increase in gasoline mileage of 42.2 percent.
