MONDAY, MAY 14, 1934. PLATTSilOtTTH STM2 - WTEE1Y J0TJ25AX PAGE THREI Why the Sudden Change to Liquid Laxatives? Doctors have always recognized the value of the laxative whose dose can be measured, and -whose action cao 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 a 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. It forms no habit; vou need not take a "double dose" a day or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The wrong cathartic may keep you constipated ex long as you keep on using it. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a frescnption, and is perfectly safe. ts laxative action is based on senna a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is at all druggists. Member N. R. A. TVTATTT.S ESCAPE AT AURORA Floyd Sherwood, 24, broke jail at Aurora shortly after 8 p. m.
