Doctor Found Women
and Children Sick
More Often than Men

AS family doctor at Monticello,
Illinois, the whole human body, not
any small part of it, was DR.. Cald-
wells practice. More than half his
s"callS" were on women, children and
babies. They are the ones most often
sick. But their illnesses were usually
of a minor nature-colds, fevers,
headaches, biliousness-and all of
them required first thorough eVac-
uation. They were constipated.
In the course of DR.. CaldwelIs At
years practice, he found a good deal
of success in such cases with a pre-
scription of his own containing
simple laxative herbs with pepsin. In
1892 he decided to use this formula
in the manufacture of DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin, and placed it on the
market.
The preparation Immediately had
as great public success as it pre-
viously had in DR.. Caldwells private
practice. Now, the third generation
is using it. Mothers are giving it to
their children who we're given it by
their mothers. Every second of the
working DAY some one somewhere is
going into drug store to buy it.
There are thousands of homes in
this country that are never without
a bottle of DR.. CaldwelFs Syrup
Pepsin, and we have many hundreds
of letters from grateful people tell
ing us it helped when everything
else failed.

CANADIAN AGAIN
TO HOP NIAGARA
IN RUBBER BALL
100, 900 Expected to Watch
Daredevil Take Plunge
on July A..
BY HARRY VAN LUNGER
United Press staff Correspondent.

United Press STAFF Correspondent.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, March
l5.--Jean Lussier, French-Canadian
who successfully made the perilous
trip over the falls last summer en-
cased in a rubber bail, probably
will dare death second time on
July 4.
Lussier went over the falls in a
specially constructed rubber ball in
daylight with more than $4,000
persons witnessing the feat.
He was hshed from the river two
hours after starting his trip by
William Red" Hill, veteran river
man.
Lussier is planning to make the
second trip in a vehicle which he
calls "parlor ball." The bail will
be six feet in diameter, electrically
lighted and so constructed that the
occupant will be able to remain
upright during the entire journey.
It will be heavily padded inside
to insure escape from any serious
injury.
AS in former attempts, Lussier
will be started on his journey from
the rapids shortly above the falls.
Here the ball will be subjected to a
heavy pounding, the treacherous
currents whirling against pointed
rocks.
After passing through the rapids
the ball will be carried over the
brink of the precipice and plunged
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-03-15

down to thousands of jagged rocks
below the falls.
1t is estimated that the ball will
be travelling at a speed of seventy
five miles an hour while dropping
from the brink to the lower whirl-
pool.
It will be impossible to release
Lussier from the ball until it has
reached a point at least 1000 yards
from the base of the falls, due to
the whirlpool.
1t is expected that 100000 persons
will view the feat.

FRENCH WOMEN
LEAD WORLD IN
BEAUTY COSTS
Spend 800 Millions Annually
on Cosmetics, Building
Up Vast Fortunes.
BY RICHARD d. MCMILLAN
limited Press star Correspondent


PARIS, Aug. 23.-The cost OF
keeping beautiful for the women Of
France has just been assessed by a
statistician at the formidable sum
of 100000, 900 annually. This repre-
sents the money expended on lip
sticks, rouge, powders, eye-blacking,
and all the other odds and ends OF
the feminine toilet.
No other women in the world, not
even Americans, spend so much IN
the quest of beauty, it is declared.
The ubiquitous lipstick, tiny as it
is, works out the most costly in the
aggregate, sharing third of the
total.
Thus, 100000, 900 is paid out to
keep the Frenchwoman's lips nicely
rouged and bow-shaped.
Other items in the bill comprise
various types of face powders, skin
lotions, eye lotions and eye-lash prep
arations, hair lotions and BARRIERS

expenses, and manicure prepara-
tons.
These statistics are forthcoming
following the disclosure that manu-
facturers of beauty preparations in
France rank with automobile mag
mates as the richest men in the
country, the principal honors for
wealth being shared by the auto
king, Andre Citroen, and the man.
ufacturer of cosmetics, Francois
Coty.
Just why 1t costs so much for
French women to look beautiful is
explained by the continual changes
in facial makeup.
Fashions change in this respect,
largely thanks to the ingenuity of
the cosmetic manufacturers, who
must invent new modes or suffer in
business.

Transporting CRATES Is a ticklish

through the ingenuity of a youthful

The chief difficulty was what to
do with the excess neck Of the ami

not fit into an ordinary railroad car.
