Why the Sudden
Change to Liquid
LaxativeS?

Doctors have always recognized the
value of the laxative whose dose can
be measured, and whose action can
be controlled.
The public, too, is fast returning
to the use of liquid laxatives. People
have learned that a properly pre-
pared liquid laxative brings perfect
movement without any discomfort
at the time, or after.
The dose of a. liquid laxative can
be varied to suit the needs of the
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. 1t forms no habit; you
need not take double dose" day
or two later. Nor will a mild liquid
laxative irritate the kidneys.
The wrong cdthartic may keep you
constipdted as long as you keep on
using it.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
prescription, and is perfectly safe
Its laxative action is based on SIENNA
"a natural laxative. The bowels will
not become dependent on this form
of help. DR.. Caldwcll's Syrup Pepsin
is at all druggists. Member n. r. A

F[AY5 SLASH.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 81. UP
William j. Often, national COM
mander in chief of the United
Spanish War Veterans, today at.
tackled the recent reduction in vet
Grams pension at the opening of
the 35th annual encampment.
Often assailed the economy mea-
sures as penalties "for the boys who
suffered the exposures and priva-
tions on the battlefields 35 years
ago." He called upon the soldiers of
'98 to band together in a deter
mined fight to regain the ground
we have lost"
More than $1,000 veterans were
in attendance for the opening ses-
sion In addition, several hundred
women convened the inaugural
meeting of the national auxiliary.
Often spoke bitterly of the pen
sion reductions.
There was only one criticism
concerning our victorious battle to
add to the glory of America-the
war didn't last long enough" he
said. Il wonder if the men who are
fighting to reduce our pensions to-
DAY are not the same one who in
1898 were disgruntled because the
war was over and they couldn't sell
the government any more clothes,
equipment and embalmed beef"
He was hopeful the future would
bring a better reward to the vet
eran.
II just received a letter from
President Roosevelt" he said, land
although it doesn't promise us any
more than we have now, fell GER
tain when we leave this convention
and as individuals determine to win
the fight in congress next year, we
will regain the ground we have
lost
