PARIS IS THREATENED
WITH A BREAD FAMINE
PARIS June 26. Paris Is threatened ;
with a bread famine. The price of j
flour if *14.60 a sack, the sacks con
talning 16" kilogrammes, the average m
price of which during the last ten years
was only $lO.
The prospect is alarming, because ,
most of the harvesting in France is '
done in the middle of July, so that a
new supply of flour can not be obtained
until August. As the government main
tains custom duties of seven francs on
foreign wheat, and Is allowing a re
bate only under conditions difficult of i
fulfilment, it is expected that the price
of bread during the next six weeks will
up 20 p*r r*nt.

BABY NEEDS WATCHING
IN SUMMER TIME
Their Little Stomachs Get Out of
flrder Easily in Hot
Weather,
Mothers should watch closely the
condition of the children's bowels, ba
bies especially. Keep the bowels regu
lar and much of the Illness to which
children are most susceptible in sum
mer can be prevented.
The most prevalent symptoms are
constipation and diarrhoea. When
waste from the stomach congests in the
bowels and makes your little one fever
ish and fretful, with a feeling of heavi
ness or languor, try giving it a spoonful
of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin at bed
time. By morning this pleasant, mild
laxative will act gently, yet positively,
and restore normal conditions. This
simple, natural remedy is also invalu
able in checking summer diarrhoea.
By thoroughly cleansing the bowels,
the foreign matter ana poisons that
irritate and inflame the tissues are
eliminated. Don’t torture the child
with harsh cathartic, purgative or as
tringent remedies, that upset the whole
system, and' at best only relieve tem
porarily. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin,
while positive in its effect, acts gently
and without griping or discomfort, re
storing normal conditions.
In using Syrup Pepsin for children
the mother can feel perfectly safe, as it
contains no opiates or narcotic drug,
being a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin. By carrying off the
dislodged tissues of mucous membrane
that inflame the n'asal passages it will
quickly break the "summer cold” that
is so annoying. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin is sold by’ druggists for fifty
cents a bottle —the larger family size,
one dollar. A free trial bottle, post
paid, can be obtained by writing to Dr.
W. B. Caldwell, 466 Washington St..
Monticello, Illinois.
