Doellcfeld, of Carlyle, III., recently wrote to Dr, Caldwell, at Monticello, III., that she had used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in her home for a number of years, and would not bo without it, as with it she has been able to keep her four children in perfect health. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts on the bowels in an easy, natural way, and regu lates the action of this most import ant function. Nearly all the sickness to which children are subject is traceable to bowel inaction, and a mild, dependable laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin should have a place in every family medi cine chest. It ls pleasant to tho taste and children Uko lt, and take lt readily, while it is equally effect ive for adults.

For a married man who cannot get along without drink, the following is suggested as a means of freedom from bondage to the saloons: Start a saloon In your own homo, and be the only customer. You'll have no license to pay. Go to your wife and gue her $2 with which to buy a gallon of whiskey. There are about 70 drinks lu a gallon, and at IG cents por drink it will bring $10.50. Buy your drinks from no one but your wife, and by the time the Hist gallon is gone she will have $S.ii0 to put in the bank and $2 to start business again. Should you live ten years and con tinue to buy booze from her, and then die with snakes in your boots, she will have enough money to bury you decently and educate your chil dren, buy a house and lot, marry a decent man and quit thinking about you entirely.
