Prescott could not tell which he
was more surprised or angry at, her
not smiling up at him or that curt
answer she gave him.
"What?" he cried. He felt like
cursing.
The girl did curse.

A TONIC Laxative

CONSTIPATION, with the annoy
ing symptoms that usually come
with it. cuts down organic force
and disturbs normal health and
well-being. A thorough cleansing
of the digestive tract is of great
assistance in the removal of sick
ening constipation symptoms.
When excessive accumulated
waste matter disturbs and strains
the muscles of the large intestines,
rendering them temporarily un-
able to perform their wave-like
evacuating movements, Thedford's
Black-Draught is useful in stimu-
lating them to activity, which,
again started, should continue
regularly until some future dis
tnrbance interferes. In this way.

When asked what system he used
to keep himself so fit, Mr.. Mann
replied:
Il learned years back of a famous
doctors prescript ton called DIR.
Caldweil's Syrup Pepsin. Every
mans liver, stomach and vital
organs grow tired now and then and
need to be stimulated back to prop
er action. Aiding nature, that's the
trick. The stimulant that always
stirred my system to new life when
l got to feeling low-down was
Syrup Pepsin. 1t always did the
work thoroughly and helped me
keep in shape the year around. I've
always avoided strong cathartics
and so-called blood and patent
medicines"

made of pure pepsin, active SIENNA,
and fresh laxative herbs. At any
