CONSTIPATION
DR. CALDWEJLL'S Syrup
Pepsin is a combination of
simple laxative herbs with
pepsin that quickly relieves the
congestion of undigested food and
poisonous waste matter, and re
stores the normal regularity of
natural action. It does not gripe
or cramp and is as safe and pleas
ant for children as it is effective on
even the strongest constitution.
Dr. Caldwell's Svtud Pensin is
he indispensable family remedy
in thousands of homes and is sold
in drug stores everywhere.
In spite of the fact that Dr. Cold
well's Syrup Pepsin is the largest selling
liquid laxative in the world, there,
being over 6 million bottles $dd each
year, many who need its benefits have
not yet used it. If you have not, send
your name and address for a free trial
bottle to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 51 1
Washington St, MonticeUo, Illinois.
DH. CALDWELL'S
SYRUP PEPSIN
THE PERFECT LAXATIVE
I lost no time in writing to Kth
erine following Dicky's account of
meeting Jack.
Slipping away at the first oppor
tunity, while Lillian and my father
asked Dicky for the latest gossip
of the city from which neither
would ever be entirely weaned. I
hurriedly penned a loving appeal,
rather a command to my little friend
to the effect that she and Tack
should come to us for the time in
tervening between the closing of
their place among the hills of New
Jersey and their departure tor an
other state.
I knew that if it were mailed
either in the evening or early the
following morning Katherine would
get it within 24 hours. I also knew,
having had experience of her
promptness, that her reply would
reach me as quickly, and that I
would be able to meet Harriet
Braithwaite when I returned with
a definite answer as to my success
in bringing about the meeting which
she, in the same breath, so desired
and dreaded.
An Unexpected CalL
Mrs. Ticer solved the problem
of mailing the letter promptly. As
we were all sitting on the screened
veranda after our return from din
ner, silently admiring the wonder
ful effect of the full moon upon the
waters of the bay stretched out be
fore us, we heard the rattle of
wheels, and then from the winding
roadway behind the house came
Sam Ticer's reedy voice in a queru
lous: -
"Whoa therel Whoa, I tell you!
What air y'aimin' to do, take us out
for a swim?"
"What the dev " Dicky began,
but Lillian's low peremptory voice
cut short the impatient words.
"The worthiest and most indis
pensable of folks come to make a
neighborly call," she murmured.
"Life would have been insupport
able without them. Climb down off
your perch, Dicky bird, and mix
with the garden variety of fowl
awhile."
"You and Madge always can man
age to collect the most outlandish"
he grumbled sulkily, but in a low
voice.
I laid my hand on his I was
cuddled close to him on the couch
hammock and whispered softly:
"Please, Dicky, be nice to them,
and agree to whatever I say tonight.
I'll make it up to you."
I was confident in making the ap
peal that it would be granted, for
Dicky was in a particularly apolo
getic mood, following his tempes
tuous outbursts of the afternoon.
That it was an uanfair advantage to
take of his repentance I well knew,
but I salved my' conscience with the
reminder that Mrs. Ticer deserved
a far greater reward than 'a cordial
welcome, or the acceptance of her
invitation to the ;ider making the
next day. I wondered apprehensive
ly, however, whether Dicky's good
nature would be elastic enough to
assent graciously to the cider-
making scheme.
Tired But Happy.
As it turned out, I need not have
feared. Dicky's sense of the pictur
esque was captured from the first
entrance of the Ticer family wizen
ed, ferret-eyed Sam Ticer leading
the way, with his Amazonian wife
close behind him, and Jerry bring
ing up the rear, grinning.
"We though we'd come over and
set a spell and meet the skipper,"
Sam Ticer said jovially, and Dicky
promptty put such good humored
cordiality into his conversation with
them that when they left they were
all evidently under the spell of "the
skipper's" personality. I had ob
served even in my short sojourn
among them that it is the custom of
the old seafaring people of the east
end of the island to refer to the
head of every household as "the
skipper" or "tlie captain," regardless
of whether he has anything to do
with the sea or not. ,
It is never Dicky's way to do
anything half-heartedly, and he not
only accepted with apparent delight
the invitation to the cidermaking
of the next day, but when the mor
row came it was hard to tell which
was the more delighted' with -the
various processes of the cider mak
ing, he or Marion, who was literally
dancing with joy during most of
the day. He picked up apples with
Jerry, helped Mrs. Ticer wash them
in big tubs, and under the tutelage
of tb,e elder Ticer fed them into the
hopper, and ferllowing the grinding,
tightened the press and watched
with boyish delight the oozing forth
of the amber apple juiec
"I don't know when I've had such
a 'bully time," ha declared as w
drove home, I at the wheel, Dicky
beside me with Marion perched on
his lap, while Lillian and my father
guarded from breakage two large
jugs of sweet cider.
"And the best thing about it all
is that he really- means it," Lillian
declared when we were talking
things over a little later. "I must
confess I had my qualms about this
affair when I knew that the Dicky
bird was let in for it, but everything
has turned out beautifully. It is an
odd and enjoyable finale of our out
ing, for the next day or two will be
simply getting ready to go home.
Heigh hoi" she stretched her arms
above her head. "I wonder what's
waiting for us at home?"
It was seemingly an idle speech,
but I echoed it with emphasis in my
soul. t
