Seldom has any single act been of
greater benefit to mankind than that
of DR.. Caldwell in 1885, when he
wrote the prescription which has
carried his fame to the four corners
of the earth.
Over and over, DR.. Caldwell wrote
the prescription as he found men,
women and children suffering from
those common symptoms of constipa-
ton, such as coated tongue, bad
breath, headaches, gas, nausea, bilious
ness, no energy, lack of appetite, and
similar things.
Demand for this prescription grew
so fast, because of the pleasant, quick
way it relieved such symptoms of
constipation, that by 1888 DR.. Cald-
we'll was forced to have it put up
ready for use. Today, DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, as it is called, is always
ready at any drugstore.
