PROMINENT importers 'and wholesale dealers in crude drag and medicinal herbs gathered from' all parts of the world do not hesitate to say that the market for the better grades of medicinal herbs, roots, oils, etc., is practically confined to the lead ing manufacturers of the so-called package medicines, who buy only the very best, and that the manu facturers of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are the largest users of the beat grade of Egyptian senna leaves in the world. The potency of a tea brewed from senna leaves to relieve con ' stipation has long been recognized, not only by the medical profes sion, but by the public generally; in fact, senna has been known and used in medicine for more than five centuries. The cheaper grades of senna, such as are usu- ally sold at retail, have, however, a tendency to gripe and cramp which makes their use unpopular with most people. - In Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin the finest Egyptian senna is com bined with pepsin and other valu able agents, essential oils and pure cane sugar syrup to make an ex ceptionally valuable tonic-laxative for the relief of constipation and resulting disturbances of the stomach and bowels. The com plete formula is plainly printed in English, French and Spanish on every package. Thousands who formerly bought an inferior grade of senna leaves now use Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin instead. It is sold in drug stores everywhere. In spite of the fact that Dr. Call well's Syrup Pepsin if the largestseUing liquid laxative in the world, there being over 6 million bottles sold 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 511 Washington St, MonticeUo, Illinois. South Side FIND STILL AND RAISIN BOOZE IN NOOK OF CELLAR Officers Declare x Complete Distilling Plant Was Hid den in Basement of Residence.

' ; . j Southern Mothers Have Found a Way to Treat Children's Croup and Colds Without Internal Dosing V' . ALL mothers everywhere know that chil A dren's stomachs are delicate and their di gestions easily disturbed, and therefore they should be given as little internal dosing as possible Yet croup arid colds come often and certainly cannot be neglected. A North Carolina Druggist Solves the Problem . Thanks to Lunsford Richardson, a druggist in Greensboro, N. C, this problem has-been solved, and Southern mothers have been given a method of treating cold troubles externally. Mr. Richardson discovered a salve that would vaporize by the body heat when applied over throat and chest. These vapors, inhaled with each breath, car ried the medication through the air pas sages to the hmgs, at the samotime the salve was absorbed thru and stimulated the skin, attracting the blood to the sur face and thus aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the trouble. This prepara tion Mr. Richardson called VickJs VapoRub. Vicks contains no harmful drugs, just the old-fashioned, time-tested remedies Menthol, Camphor, Thymol, Eucalyptus, Turpentine, etc. com bined in a new-fashioned way. The Use of Vicks Has Steadily Increased Starting with the customers of Mr. Richardson's retail drug store, the sale of this external treatment has grown, coun ty by county, state by state, until now Vicks can be found in almost any drug store in alf sections of the United States. Mothers who once use Vicks always keep a bottle on hand thereafter. It is so easily applied, so quick in its effects, and, best of all, can be used as often and as freely as desired, without fear of harmful results. ; 'Jl N W lllffflk3 t vrm v Now Over 17 Million Jars Are A M V Used Yearly 11 k ; mbi The best evidence of the value of Vicks is the increasing number of fami lies who, each year, are converted to the use of this real "Little Body guard in the Home." , The number of-jars used annually for the last few, years is: 19 V).....;.. 347,748 Jars 19H. ....... 523,152 Jars 1912 ........ 1,027,068 Jars 1913........ 1,357,590 Jars 1914.... V.. . 1,462,330 Jars 1915 2,418,213 Jars 1916........ 4,302,764 Jars 1917 6,799,511 Jars v 1918 ..17,377,408 Jars DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE OF VICKS Vapors Important For these troubles large part of the value of Vicks lies in its vaporizing qualities. So whenever Vicks is applied over the throat and chest, care should be taken to leave the clothing loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel, so that the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. Hot Wet Cloths In cases of deep chest colds, severe sore throat or incipient pneu monia, hot, wet towels should be used over the throat and chest to open the pores of the skin before applying Vicks. For Head Colds, Asthma, Catarrh, Hay FTer Vicks can be melted in a spoon and the vapors inhaled, or a little should be applied up the nostrils and snuffed op the head. For Spasmodic Croup, OuMren's Coltb Rub Vicks over the throat and chest until the difficult breathing is relieved, then spread on thickly and cover with a hot flannel doth. An-application at bed time usually prevents a night attack of croup. Vicks-is particularly recommended for children's colds since it is externally applied, and can, therefore, be used often and freely without disturbing the young ters' delicate digestions. For Deep Chest Colds, Sore Throat, Tonsilitis, Bronchitis, Coaghs r any affection of the respiratory organs where there is tightness or soreness, Vicks should be applied over the throat and chest if necessary, first using hot wet cloths and rubbed in well until the skin is red; then spread on thickly and covered with . one or two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. If the cough is annoying, a small piece the size of a pea can be swallowed every few hours. " Minor Ailments In addition to its use for Cold Troubles, Vicks has been found excellent as a salve, liniment or plaster for troubles such as Bites, Burns, Itching, Soreness, Sunburn.
