NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE MRS, HALLORY 1 DEFEATED TODAY English School Girl Playej Vanquishes Star Wimbledon, Eng., June 23 (@ — Mrs. Molla Mallory, seven times American national women’s ten champion and present holder of the title, was defeated today in the Wimbledon singles by Miss Betty Nuthall, English schoolgirl player and junior champion. The score was 2-6, 6-2, 6-0. The first set provided the best women's tennis seen | Wimbledon this year. Mallory and her youthful opponent played forcefully from the base- line without any slackening in pace or attempting to go to the net. Betty took an early lead of 4-1 in the second set when the Amen- can champion began to show the strain of the swift pace. Mrs. Mal- loory double faulted twice. The English girl took the first four games of the last set by con- tinuing her campaign from the base line. Then she went to the net and volleyed and smashed for the { winning points. | While her youthful opponent was -adopting this offensive, Mrs. Mal at lory appeared to be tiring. and her | drives lost much of their sting. | Betty Nuthall won the British | junior ngles championship in 1924, 1925 and again ‘last year. .ast year also, paired with Gwendo- lin Sterry, she won the British women’s hard court doubles cham- pionship.

Doctor at 83 Finds People Still Prefer His Prescription When a man reaches the 83rd year of his life, there are certain things he has learned that only time can teach him. The basis of treat- ing sickness has not changed since I left Medical College in 1875, nor since 1 placed on the market the laxative prescription T had used in my practice, known to druggists and the public since 1892, as Dr. Cald- well’s Syrup Pepsin. Then, the treatment of constipa- tion, billousness, headaches, mental depressfon, indigestion, sour stomach and other indispositions that result from constipation was entirely by means of simple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of my Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which is a combination of Egyptian Senna and other mild lax- ative herbs, with pepsin. New medicines are constantly brought out for constipation that contain calomel (which is mercury), salts of variqus kinds, phenolphtha- lein (which is acid and coal tar), and minerals. These are all dras- tic purges, many of them dangerous, and the medical profession is warn- ing the public against them. Cer- tain coal tar products which are of- fer:d to people so much nowadays, irritate and poison the tissue of the stomach, intestine and bowel. Most salts thin the blood and carry off the vital body fluids, making you anemic and rheumatic. If grown people fvant to use them no one can AT AGE 83 deny them the privilege, but they should never be given to children. The simpler the remedy for con- stipation, the safer for the child and for you, and the better for the gen- eral health of all. And as you can get results in a mild and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep- sin, why take chances with strong drugs which are usually disguised as candy or chewing gum.
