THE Congress seems to have con-
siderable difficulty in legislating for

Why
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
~-@

The public is fast returning to the use
of liquid laxatives. People have
learned that the right dose of a
properly prepared liquid laxative will
bring a perfect movement without
any discomfort at the time, or after.
The dose of liquid laxative can
be varied to suit the needs of the
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. A child is easily given the
right dose And mild liquid laxatives
do not irritate the kidneys.
Doctors are generally agreed that
SIENNA is a natural laxative. 1t does
not drain the system like the cathar-
tics that leave you so thirsty. DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a liquid
laxative which relies on SIENNA for its
laxative action. 1t gently helps the
average PERSONS bowels back to
regularity.
You can always get DR.. CALDWELL S
Syrup Pepsin at any drug store, ready
for use. Member N. r. A.

hours 10 per cent per week while
maintaining a full weekly wage
scale, was under study today by
Justice Jesse c. Adkins, OF Dis
trict Supreme Court.
Attorneys representing the man.
ufacturers contended the amend
ment inserted by President Roose-
vel last August was unconstitu-
tional. They made no contention
about the code as originally ap-
proved.
They based their arguments on
two grounds, first, that the Pres,
ident, in keeping up wages and
cutting hours, was in effect tax
ing property without right and,
second, that they are manufac-
turers only and not subject to
Federal control or regulation un-
til their products are placed in
interstate commerce.
Justice Adkins indicated he
would give his decision this week.
