Along with this flair for individual ways Of
dressing the hair Is the overwhelming popularity
OF curls- They may be poised in all sorts of angles
and arrangements, but they MUST be shown.
The new modes show a marked tendency for
softer effects which result in long hobs, or short
long hair. The only difference Is that with long
bobs the hair is allowed to fall softly down TO the
shoulders, witt the ends curled either up towards
the neck or out away from the face With the
short long hair. the curls may be held snugly
in place, with little hairpins, so that they lie
close to the face or pinned high on the head to
resemble the ~coiffures OF twenty-five years ago.
Another new note IN the prevailing mode,
is the marked attention that the back of the head
is receiving. One Of the cleverest arrangements
seen lately was q head Of lovely titan hair

Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell Was Right

The basis of treating sickness
has not changed since DR.. Cald-
well left Medical College in 1875,
nor since he placed on the market
the laxative prescription he had
used in his practice, known to
druggists and the public since
1892, as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin.
Then, the treatment of consti-
patton, biliouSness, headaches,
mental depression, indigestion,
sour stomach and other indiSposi-
tions that result from constipa-
ton was entirely by means OF
simple vegetable laxativeS, herbs
and roots. These are still the
basis of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, which is a combination Of
senna and other mild laxative
herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for
constipation, the safer for the
child and for you, and the better
for the general health of all. And
as you can get results in a mild
and safe way by using DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, why take
chances with strong drugs?
A bottle of DR.. Caldwell'S Syrup
