- { a - ~ Make it Easier For Daby in Summer 4Many of the Hot-Weather Troubles Can Easily Be Avoided. If the mother will see to it that the bowels are kept regular, much of the illness to which children are most sus- ceptible during hot weather can be | prevented. A mild laxative, regular intervals, will prove an excel- lent preventive of summer complaints that are caused by inactive bowels. The combination of simple laxative administered herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores ! under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is excellent for chil- dren, being pleasant to the taste, gen- tle yet positive in action, and free from opiate or narcotic drug of any description. It acts naturally, with- out griping or other discomfort, and is altogether dependable. The cleansing of the bowels will most effectively check an attack of diarrhea by expelling the foreign at | i | | matter and poisons that irritate and inflame the tissues. ! In every home a bottle of Dr. Cald- ! well’s Syrup Pepsin should be on hand, ready for use when occasion requires. It costs only fifty cents a | bottle and 1is sold in drug stores i everywhere. A-free trial bottle can | be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. | Caldwell, 453 Washington St., Monti- | cello, Il FADS AND FASHIONS Girlg’ middy blouses have colored smocking on them.
