Here’s A Gentle Laxative
Far Elderly PeopL
A daily free movement of the bowels becomes a serious
problem as you step from middle-life into old age, and much
dependence can no %>nger be placed on nature herself. The
bowels find artificial aid necessary.
The stronger the physic, as old people soon learn; the
greater the contraction of the bowels thereafter, and so the
wise purposely avoid salt waters, pills and other harsh pur
gatives. Many have learned to place absolute reliance on
the gentle but positive action of a combination of simple
laxative herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under the name
of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. C
It produces an agreeable movement as nearly natural and
free as high pharmaceutical skill can make it. Thousands
use it regularly, in the small dose prescribed, and keep them
selves in fine health and good cheer, and entirely free from
constipation. .. 4
The druggist will refund your money if it fails •
to do as promised.

increased laboratory
costs due to the War,

ative has been sold by

ECHOES OF MEETNG.
One of Florence’s outstanding
'needs, a. pubVo library, came in for
l great deal of discussion at the Pme
i Wood club meeting last nigly.. The
I "mere mention of a public library for
j FiorenCe broulit forth such applause
las would indicate ihatnhe entire mee:
l'ing was thoroughly in sympathy with
the proposition. Mr, Henry E. Davis'
'who spoke on the subject of a public
"library as a filvnng memorial to the
boye \vhc gave up their lives in
France created great enthusiasm in
'ijiis presentation of the subject. Mr.
j*Davis stated that he would be one of
iYen men to subscribe five hundred
dollars toward a public library. The
mefi ing took no action but this’ wiT.
undoubtedly come iater and will be
one of the first projects to taken up
by the reorganized Chamber of Com
merce. Dr. H. T. Graham, who (also
discussed the library question, urged
strongly that something be done
once. There could he no better mem-
prial, he said, than a public library.
How the library was to be built, said
Dr. Grahnm, was a matter that must
be determined by v/hatever commt':-
tee was placed in charge of the pro
ject. He told of the Carnegie plar.
and its’ success fin other cities, but

In most cases where some noted
article has maintained its hold that
way for a period of years, it will al

Rheuma passes the deadly poison
