Hot Weather Bad For Women’s Nerves Season When They Most Need Their Strength to Wi ithstand the Heat Hot weather has a decidedly weak- ening effect on most women. They become too languid to exercise, and as a result have appetite only for light, tasty foods, like salads and other cold concoctions, which do not digest readily and increase the nat- ural tendency to constipation. At this season women should main- tain the highest possible standard of health, to counteract the enervating effect of the weather. Good digestion and regularity of the bowels are es- sential. The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is highly recommended as a laxative and di- gestant by many physicians, as wel as by thousands of women who de- pend upon it as a remedy for many of those ills to which women seem more especially susceptible. Get ‘a Afty cent bottle of Dr. Cald- well's Syrup Pepsin from your drus- gist and have it in the house. Take a dose of it tonight and by morning your consiipation, Indigestion and sick headache will vanish. It is far preferable to carthartics, purgatives, and salts, because it does not gripe or shock the system but acts gently, in an- easy, natural manner, expel the congesiion of waste and restoring normal activity of the organs, A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W.
