Every Home Needs
This Great Remedy
No Home Can Afford to Be
Without a Mild , Reliable
Laxi tive- T onic.
No well-regulated home should be
without a laxative, for there Is scarce
ly a day in a family of several per

of a headache, of sleeplessness, or
show the first signs of a cold.
A laxative then becomes a necessity
or what was a tilting congestion at
the beginning may run into a serious
cold or fever. No harsh remedy is
needed, but simply a mild laxative
tonic that will make the liver active
end stir up the bowels. People who
have tried a great many things, and
are themselves heads of families, who
have seen the little ills run to big ones,
will tell you that there Is nothing bet
ter than Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
w-hich you can obtain at any drug
store for fifty cents or one dollar a
bottle, the latter being the family size.
Among the great believers in Syrup
Pepsin for constipation in old or
young, and as a general household
emergency remedy, is Mrs. M. F
Smith, 710 N. Cherry St., San Anton

says she will bless Dr. Caldwell to her
dying day for she believes that
through his remedy, Syrup Pepsin, she
found the way to permanent good
health.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sci
entifically compounded and its purity
is vouched for. Mothers give it to tiny
babes, and grown people, taking a llt
