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 be ob tained. postpaid, by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell. 406 Washington St. Mon ticello, Illinois. = g I J.M.HIGE Gmonr.
