Wide- man, McCormick, S. C. Doctors have always recognized the value of the laxative whose dose can be measured, and whose action can be controlled. The public, too, is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People have learned that a properly pre pared liquid laxative brings a perfect movement without any discomfort at the time, or after. The dose of a liquid laxative can be varied to suit the needs of the individual. The action can thus be regulated. It forms no habit; you need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The wrong cathartic may keep you constipated as tong as you keep on using it. ■ w Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a prescription, and is perfectly safe. Its laxative action is based on senna —a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is at all druggists. Member N. R.
