Good Cheer Aids
Digestion of Food
Dyspeptics Can Make the Rest of
the Family Happy hy Using
a Laxative Tonic.
The temper of the family and the
pood cheer around the table depend
so much on the good digestion of each
individual present that the experi
ences of some former dyspeptics who
overcame their trouble should be of
Interest to those now suffering in this
way.
The best advice one can give—but
it is advice that is seldom heeded—is
to eat slowly and masticate each
mouthful carefully. However, if slow
eating and careful mastication fall the
next aid Is one close to nature, Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This rem
edy 1& an excellent digestant. and in
addition to helping in the digestion of
the food, acts gently on the liver and
bowels, ridding them of the accumu
lation of waste that snould long ago
have been pasesd off. It.is safe, re
liable. pleasant-tastlng and results
are guaranteed.
Major S. Martin, of Joplin. Mo., now
77, thinks Dr. Caldell’s Syrup Pepsin
has helped him to a longer and hap
pier life. He has not felt so good in
years as he has since taking this ex
cellent medicine, and in spTte of his
77 years he says he feels like a boy.
It is the ideal remedy for indiges
tion, no matter how severe; constipa-
tion. no matter how chronic, bilious
ness. headaches, gas on the stomach,
drowsiness after eating and similar
annoyances.
You can obtain Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin at any drug store for 50 cents
MAJ. S. MARTIN
or $1, the latter size being bought by
heads of families already familiar
with its merits. Results are always
guaranteed or money will be refunded.
When you use Syrup Pepsin von
will see the fallacy of chewing mints
and tablets or of taking cathartics,
salts, pills and similar drastic medi
cines. Unlike these. Syrup ’ Pepsin
does not lose Its good effect, and by
automatically training the stomrrch
and bowel muscles to do their work,
soon restores these organs to normal.
Families wishing to try a free sam
ple bottle can obtain it postpaid by
addressing Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 419
