Of next im- portance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin, is a mild vege- table compound. It can not harm the most delicate system and is not a habit-forming preparation. Syrup | Pepsin is pleasant-tasting, and youngsters love it. It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written us to that effect. Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did not believe they were good for hu- man beings to put into their system. In a practice of 47 years he never saw any reason for their use when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin will empty the howels just as promptly, more cleanly and gently, without griping and harm to the system. Keep frce from constipation! Tt {robs your strength, hardens your teries and brings on premature old age.
