couple of -weeks for Judge Fitzger

many women careless of their

extra tiresome and the hot kitchen adds

edy that brings quick relief. It is called
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and you -can
find it in any drug store. It is a
combinationofsimplelaxative herbs with
pepsin that acts on the digestive organs
and soon rids the bowels of its accumu
lation. Take a spoonful of Syrup Pepsin
at night and the congestion, headache
and feverishness will be gone in the
morning. You will then stand the heat
with comfort
There are thousands of women in this
country who do not use anything else in
these emergencies but Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. Miss Bart, of 1045 Wat
kins St., Grand Rapids, Mich., relies
entirely on Syrup Pepsin, and she per
sonally knows many others who do. The
medicines she formerly took for consti
pation made her sick to the stomach, but
Syrup Pepsin is so mild and acts so gently
and without griping that she finds
pleasure in using it.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can be
given toinfants with entire safety. It is
a truly wonderful household medicine,
and a bottle should be in every home.
