It Is natural for a child to laugh and
play and when It sulka drowsily or cries
you nuy depend on It something physi
cally is the matter. If you see no evi
dence of a serioua ailment you Till not
be wrong If you quietly give it a doaa
of mild laxative that evening on putting
It to bed.
The remedy moat generally recom
menced for this purpose is tr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin, which mothers
throughout the country have been -giving
their children for a quarter of a cen
tury . Today thousands of families are
using It where hundreds used it then,
and it-era must be good reason for this
word of mouth recommendation.
It is admittedly the perfect laxative
for children, women, old people and all
others who need a gentle bowel stimu
lant and not a violent salt, cathartic
pill or doctored water. Pr. Caldwell's

Key. Dr. R. L Wheeltr Piy Tribute
to Former Negro Slave.
LEAVES LETTER 05 HIS GRAVE
First Presbyterian Chare Celebrat
ing Tweaty-Flfth Anniversary of
Feaadlag St Hide's Galld
te Earertala friends.
Because he waa unsure te endure the
ordeal of Memorial day. Rev. Dr. Robert
L. Wheeler, pastor of the South Omaha
Presbyterian church, tramped out aloce
to Laurel Hill cemetery on Wednesday
to pay a tribute to the duet of an old
and faithful servant, Edward Jones, a
negro trooper In a Kentucky regiment
in the civil war.
No flower or wreath did the old minis
ter bring to the grave of the dead trooper,
but a tribute In words sealed and signed
and laid on the grave of Jones told the
many who visited the cemetery on Mem
orial day of the virtues and noble quali
ties of the poor black man who lay
sleeping among the others who wore the
blue.
The letter waa found yesterday morning
by one who asked that his name be with
held. The missive speaka for Itself:
Decoration day, Ulat day of Wll To
whom It may concern; Greeting: Under
this mound liee the body of a soldier of
a Kentucky regiment of negro troopers.
Late in the war he was a slave, and one
morning as the Union army was In the
neighborhood, he ran away, although
his master called lustily for him to come
back, for he had refused 11.500 in gold tor
thie slave. His name waa Edward Jones,
better known In South Omaha as "Ned
Jones." He often aided our family
about the house, and was a faithful man.
1 had the pleaaure of aiding him to read
and keeping small account correctly. Ned
was not very religious in his earlier life,
but waa honest, and was loyal to his
friends as an angel of God. lie saved
nis earnings, gathered scraps of lumber,
and bought dry goods boxes, and built a
comfortable bouse at Twenty-aeventh
and J streets, this city. Years of carpet
cleaning, in which he was an expert,
brought on lung trouble and his last
years were ot much pain, and constant
suffering from that ever preeent annoy
ance of the old soldier, rheumatism, day
and night. Our friendship never suf
fered a serious break, although he was
high strung and quick and physically
able to resent a supposed offense. He
and I met God on our knees at hla death.
1 saw that he had a Christian burial and
helped to place him in this spot, for his
last long sleep. Thinking that hia grave
might accidentally be overlooked, and as
for personal reasons 1 cannot endure
the ordeal of "Decoration Day," I now
and here do thla In memory of thia faith
ful black man, who was, and la and ever
shall be my friend. May some distant
loving hand strew flowers on my soldier
desd, with the same spirit in which I
seek to honor, and bear tribute Iq this
man. May hla soul rest In peace. In
an affectionate memory, and perpetual
regard of Ned Jones.
