• MENACE IN SUMMER •

• Regularity of Bowels Very •
• Important to Health at •
This Time.

At no time should people more close
ly watch the condition of their bowels
than during hot weather. Summer con
ditions contribute in various ways to
cause constipation, but whatever the
cause the trouble should be quickly'
corrected; constipation, if neglected,
leads directly to serious, and often fa
tal disease.
Some people find that certain fruits
have laxative effect, but this can not be
depended upon; a mild laxative tonic
that will act gently and positively,
without griping or shock to the system,
is far preferable; The compound of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin,
known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
is highly recommended as being easy
and natural In action, pleasant to the
taste, and certain in its effect. A dose
of Syrup Pepsin at night will restore
normal action in the morning, carrying
off the heaviness and bloat. Salts, pur
gative waters and cathartics should be
avoided, as they upset the entire "sys
tem and afford at best but temporary
relief. By cleansing the bowels and
removing the foreign matter that irri
tates and inflames the tissues, a spoon
ful of Syrup Pepsin will quickly check
the summer diarrhoea that is so weak
ening Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
sold by druggists for fifty cents a bot
tle, the larger, family size, costing one
dollar. A free trial bottle can bo ob
tained. postpaid, by writing to Dr. W.
