“In children's Ills, a harsh, sickening 'physic* often makes matters worse by lowering the child's resistance." _—DR. CALDWELL DA. W » CALDWItl AT TMi AGC Or 03 . Mother! It s Cruel to “Physic” Your Child To Dr. W. B. Cold well of Moctlcello, 111., a practicing physician for 4? years, It seemed cruel that so many consti pated infants and children hud to be kept constantly "stirred up” apd half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that const potion was the cause of nearly all children’s little Ills, he did not believe that a sickening "purge” or "physic” every day or two was necessary. In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup l’epiln he discovered a laxative which regulates the bowels. A single dose will estab lish natural, healthy bowel movement for weeks at a time, even If the child was chronically constipated. Dr. Cald well’s Syrup Pepsin not only causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, It Is orten months before aii other dose Is neCT'sary. Besides, it ll absolutely harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish, billons, sick child gladly takes It.

III. l a Save Would-Be Suicides In Berlin the number of suicides liny become so alarming that a proposal lias been made to create special relief stations where persons contemplating self-destruction might go and receive the help they need. Tire causes of suicide are most often lack of money, illness, neurasthenia and unrequited or obstructed love. Could the suffer ers receive good advice, a little money or the intervention of the proper per son It Is thought their intention might he shaken and their lives saved. Pas tors, laic confessors, psyclinnalysts and regular physicians might he drafted into service. The question remains whether Intending suicides could be In dufed to have recourse to such life saving stations.
