DR.. Caldwel's 3 Rules
Keep You Healthy

DR.. Caldwell watched the results
OF constipation for Al years, and be-
lieved 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
1t when It comes. DR.. Caldwell al
ways was in favor of getting as close
to nature as possible, hence his
remedy for constipation. known as
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. Is a
mild vegetable compound. 1t can
not harm the most delicate system
and is not a habit forming prepare
ton. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant-ta
ing, and youngsters love it. 1t does
not grippe. 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 hu
man beings to put into their sys-
TENS. In a practice OF ~ years he
never saw any reason for their use
when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin
will empty the bowels just as prompt
ly, more clearly and gently. without
gripping and harm to the system.
Keep free from constipation. 1t
robs your strength, hardens your
arteries and brings on premature old
age. Do not let a day go by with

MURDER MYSTERY
IS NOW solved
Nashua Police Were All Excited
It First

Nashua, N. H., Jan. 30 W.
Nashua police were reluctant today
to concede that the first real "mpr-
der mystery" that they have bDen
confronted with in years had been
solved by the discovery that skeie-
ton found during the razing OF the
old Union block was one that had
once been used for scientific pVe-
poses.
While workmen were tearing
down the building last week they
found the bones Of a human leg. The
rest Of the skeleton dropped into the
basement under a pile Of debris. To-
day further search resulted In the
discovery Of 4 skull. The skull was
well polished and the top had been
sawed off. ID yielded no clues Of
foul play. but indicated rather that
It might once have been an object
Of study In a medical school class
room.
The finding Of the skull substan-
tiated in part the story told by Ar
thur c. Hill Of Revere, Mass. who
recalled that = taxidermist who had
shop In the building 10 years ago
owned 4 skeleton that had been
buried in the attic and then forgot
ten.
Chief Of Police Irving F. Good
win, however. remains unconvinced
by these explanations.
ut Is plainly evident" said the
chief. after he had examined the
skull today. that this part Of a
human skull, that Of a woman. has
no connection with the right leg
found last week. Flesh and cords
have dried on the bones Of the leg
found, while the skull IL highly pol
ished and one probably used for ex-
hibition purposes. The leg was
placed where it was found with the
flesh on It. while the skull had been
cleaned and polished"
Meanwhile, the building IL being
searched for more bones, because
with only 4 right leg the police have
a considerable task to establish q
corpus deficit.
