DR.. Caldwell's 3 Rules
Keep You Healthy

DR.. Caldwell watched the re-
suits of constipation for Al years,
and believed that no matter how
careful people are of their
health, diet and exercise, constl-
patton will occur from time to
time, regardless of how much one
tries to avoid it. Of next i'm
portance, then, is how to treat
it when it comes. DR.. Caldwell
always was in favor Of getting as
close to nature as possible, hence
his remedy for constipation,
known as DR.. Caldwell'S Syrup
Pepsin, is a mild vegetable COM

most delicate system and is not

Syrup PepSin is pleaSant-taSting,
and youngsters love it. Tt does

DR.. Caldwell did not approve Of
drastic physics and purgeS. He
did not believe they were good
for human beings to put into
their systems. In a practice Of
At years he never saw any reason
for their use when a medicine
like Syrup Pepsin will empty the
bowels just as promptly, more
cleanly and gently, without grip

The question was so unexpected that

BRITISH ACTION
ON new CLAUSE
HOLDS INTEREST
Signing of Optional Provi-
sion on Disputes Arouses
Much Comment.
BY HENRY WOOD
United Press STAFF Correspondent

GENEVA, Sept. 20.-Foreign Sec
rotary Hendersons acceptance on
behalf of Great Britain of the OPP
tional clause providing compulsory
arbitration of international dis
putes aroused much comment in
league circles today, due to the
complications that may result in
case of disputes between dorninions
of the British empire.
There was considerable specula-
ton for instance, on what would
happen if the Irish Free State de-
cided to act independently against
Great Britain or any non-empire
country and then attempted to sub
nit it's right to independent action
to the decision of The Hague court.
That Henderson was conscious of
the dangers of such situation was
evident from reservations he made
in signing the optional clause.
BY these reservations he excluded
from the jurisdiction Of The Hague
court the disputes involving mem
bers of the British empire, in which
the parties will have agreed on a
method of settlement and disputes
involving matters Of international
law which may fall within the jul
risdiction of the British empire.
Henderson's reservations also
tended to delay the action of The
Hague court, in that they retained
for Britain the right to submit
certain disputes to the League of

Nations council before going to The

The latter provision contains a
distinct strategic value because if
Britain is powerful enough in the
council it will be able to head off
the action of The Hague court in
certain classes of disputes.
1t is noteworthy that while Bri-
tain and three units of the empire,
India, South Africa and New Yea
land signed the optional clause with
the same reservations, the Irish Free
State, on Sept. IA, signed the clause
without any reservations. The Irish
