Pull the Trigger on
Lazy Bowels, and Also
Pepsin-ize Stomach!
When constipation brings on add indi
gestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated
tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your
Jtomach is probably loaded up with cer
tain undigested food and your bowels don’t
move. So you need both Pepsin to help
break up fast that rich undigested food in
your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull
the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be
sure your laxative also contains Pepsin.
Take Dr. Caldwell's Laxative, because its
Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that won
derful stomach com fort, while the Laxative
Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the
power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of
undigested protein food which may linger
m your stomach, to cause belching, gastric
acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin-
iring your stomach helps relieve it of such
distress. At the same time this medicine
wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your
bowels to relieve your constipation. So see
how much better you feel by taking the
laxative that also puts Pepsin to work on
that stomach discomfort, too. Even fin
icky children love to taste this pleasant
family laxative. Buy Dr. Caldwell’s Lax
ative-Senna with Syrup Pepsin at your
druggist today!

WASHINGTON.—In a debate with
Ernie Weir, Harold Ickes said, “If
anyone thinks that tonight I am go
ing to be the bull throwing himself
around this ring, like my friend
Hugh Johnson, let me remind him
that I have just seen a Disney pic
ture. If there’s a bull fight tonight,
I’m going to be Ferdinand sniffing
flowers.”
I don’t know what’s getting into
Harold. In a recent radio debate
with me he was so sweet and gentle

Ickes more mellow, thinks Johnson.
that I couldn’t be otherwise. It
sounded more like a necking party
than a robust combat.
The audience almost began stamp
ing and whistling “Waltz Me Around
Again Willie” and I was afraid the
referee would call it no contest.
And now this—“Ferdinand the Bull
sniffing flowers!” This is the same
sweet Ick who once argued that
people who did not agree with him
had “mental halitosis.” Of this very
infirmity his own expressions were
such forgetful symptoms in himself
that if he had then “sniffed” any
flowers, he could have wilted them
at forty rods. He was the prize bull
thrower in public life. Very happy
matrimony of this lusty old sour
dough has worked such wonders that
he seems to be going sissj' on us.

MR. ROOSEVELT’S
PEEVISHNESS
NEW YORK CITY.—Mr. Roose
velt needs a rest. For a long time
it has been easy to see that this 1940
campaign is going to be a sizzler. It
is steaming up even before it gets
started.
Franklin Roosevelt will be the
center of contention—whether he is
a candidate or not.
As an issue, there is no New Deal
except the President. He has not
permitted any other figure in his
official family to rise knee-high to
his own stature.
If any did, he either cracked it
down or sewed it up in a sock and
dropped it into the Bosphorus—as
the sultans did with any harem fa
vorite who got gay. He, more than
any policy or association of his, will
be the object of attack—especially
if he runs for a third term.
Franklin can give a good account
of himself in any battle, so long as
he has the upper hand and is in his
usual mental and physical pink of
condition.
These latter qualifications are im
portant. In his fighting record as
President, except for setbacks on is
sues rot involving his own defeat,
he has always had the upper hand
and from that position fought zest
fully and well. In his earlier po
litical record he was far more cau
tious and timid.
Whether he will enter this new
battle, as in 1936, with the enemy
on the run is too early to tell. We
don’t know what the opposing cham
pion and platform will look like, and
that is of utmost importance in judg
ing the quality of the coming fight.
The second factor in judging this
quality has already been mentioned
—Mr. Roosevelt’s physical and men
tal condition. He seems to keep in
excellent bodily shape. He has the
arms and chest of a stroke-oar on a
varsity crew.
He also has a philosophy that pro
tects him from the mental strains of
that killing office which has laid
many Presidents low. It is that, in
every minute of his working time,
he gives all and the best of what
he has to give to his job, that an
gels could do no more and there
fore that he is not going to toss on
a sleepless bed worrying about the
result.
But he ought to take long and
frequent vacations. Under too long
a strain he tends to become fretful
and snappish. It leads him to ex
tremes of expression and biting im
patience with opposing views.
Never has this been so apparent
as in recent weeks—his resentment
of perfectly reasonable inquiries by
newspaper men about his third term
intentions, the increasing acidity of
his press conferences, the aston
ishing absurdity of his debt state
ment and, as a climax, his speech
to the Youth Congress.
There he laid himself open to his
enemies by extremes of bitter and
untrue statements about the past
prosperity of the United States, the
accomplishments of his own admin
istration and the right of assemblies
to pass resolutions on things they
“don’t know anything about.” His
own views are "simple facts.” Op
posing opinions are “unadulterated
twaddle.”
It gave John Lewis an opportunity
to take him apart just as the debt
statement put a dynamite bomb in
the hands of Tom Dewey.

Modern life with its hurry and worry.
Irregular habits, improper eating and

of the kidneys. They are apt to become
ever-taxed and fail to filler excess acid
and other impurities from the life-giving
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
headache, dizziness, getting up nights,
leg pains, swelling—feel constantly
tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs
of kidney or bladder disorder are some
times burning, scanty or too frequent
urination.

This May Be the Means of Saving
Your Son’s Life
(Bell Syndicate—WNU Service.)
Don't wait until war propaganda has done its deadly work and the boy in your
family comes in and says, "Mom, I just signed up. I go to report Monday."
By KATHLEEN NORRIS
T HERE is an organization now
in process of formation in
America that you ought to join.
This organization’s name is the
Mother’s Legion.
If you are among the millions of
us who have been saying since 1919
that you “wish you could do some
thing about war,” then this is your
chance.
If you don’t take this chance then
don’t complain if we get into the
preposterous and unnecessary
scrap, that is seething all over Eu
rope, and then one day your boy
marches away.
He may never come back. In that
case you pack up his sweaters and
camera and school pictures and
tramping boots, and the fishing pole
and tennis racket, and you send
them to the Salvation Army and
you close the door of his room. And
you close a door in your heart, for
ever.
But of course he may come back.
They may bring him very tenderly
to the door on stretcher and he
may grope for your hand and say
in that dear voice you love best in
all the world, “Is that you, mom?
They got my eyes and my knee.
You and dad knew that?”
And for a few days everyone will
be kind. Neighbors, friends old and
new will drop in to cheer up that
splendid Baker boy who was so bad
ly smashed and is now back at his
home again.
Then they’ll stop. He’ll sit, in his
broken, wasted, silent youth, in the
sunny front room; he’ll have the
radio; he’ll master Braille. You’ll
talk to him, as you come and go,
and tell him that his old pal Joe
Davis has married a lovely girl, and
that they are sending Billy Brown
to the Australian branch, wonderful
chance for Billy! And Sister Kate
has a darling baby. Would Keith
like to hold his young nephew for a
few minutes?
You'll see his face grow more and
more sober, as the months go by;
you’ll see him droop a little. And
in 1960, when he’s middle-aged, still
blind and helpless and idle in his
sunny window, and when you’re get
ting to be an old lady, you’ll read
him a headline. “They’re talking of
starting another war over in Europe
again, Keith.”
Because what we Americans can
not understand, and never will un
derstand, is that the war theory is
a part of their scheme over there.
They believe in war. They believe
that the side that kills the greatest
number of young men and blows up
the greatest number of innocent vil
lages MUST be right. They’ve be
lieved that since the days of Charle
magne. They’re proving again to
day that they think might is right.
If a neighbor believes something
that you don’t, then you kill him to
prove that what you believe is the
truth.
Our point of view is different. We
know that the ideology we must de
stroy, and the only ideology we must
destroy, is the delusion that might
is right. That the most powerful
army is the army of God. That war
ever accomplishes anything that
couldn’t be simply and reasonably
accomplished without recourse to
fighting that war.
If one European nation in these
long twenty years since the Armi
stice was signed, if ONE of them,
even the smallest, had put forth hon
est peace feelers, had developed a
PLAN for peace, we might feel very
differently about our response to
their appeal for help today. If the
churches, instead of reiterating their
pious desire for peace, had formu
lated a PLAN, then there never
would have been this war. Instead,
injustices, embargoes, blockades,
punishments, reprisals went serene
ly on. Nobody cared about adjust
ing the pernicious terms of the
peace treaties, because everyone
w as too busy forming plans for the
next war.
They Never Have Enough.
This has been going on in Europe
for five hundred years. They’ve had
a Hundred Years war, a Thirty
Years war, religious wars, civil
wars. They’ve always given high
moral reasons for their wars.
They’ve always wanted just one
more, “to end all wars.” They’ve
always grabbed, separately, every
thing in the way of spoils that they
could get, after the war, and they’ve
never surrendered one inch of what
they got.
This Mothers’ Legion must mount
to a membership of two million to
be able to wield the influence we
want to have it wield. We’re well
on our way to that two million al
ready. We probably will make it
five million. Five million votes will
swing any candidate to victory in
1940; half that number will. We
want all our representatives, and es
pecially our Chief Executive, to
pledge us their solemn word that
under no pressure, under no circum
stances, under no threats that “we
will be next,” will we ever engage
again in foreign wars. We want to
be so organized that if our people in
Washington fail us, and go back on
their promises, we can impeach
them.
Don’t wait, if you want to help.
Don’t wait until propaganda has
done its deadly work, and the bands
begin to play, and the service flags
begin to mount upon village flag
poles, and the boys of your family
come in casually to lunch and say,
“I’m in, mom. I just signed up. I
go to report on Monday.”
War Preys on Youth.
Youth won’t wait. It is one of the
devilish subtleties of war that it
wants our sons just when they are a
little at loose ends; out of school,
plugging along in dull jobs, old
enough to make their own decisions,
young enough to love excitement
and change.
There are no dues in the Mothers’
Legion. Its simple purpose is to en
list the power of women everywhere
to keep us out of foreign wars;
to influence other nations toward
peace; to resist un-American activi
ties in our midst; to maintain ade
quate home defense in the interest
of peace, not war. Some of the most
prominent men and women in the
country are already enthusiastic pro
moters of it. Churchmen of all de
nominations, the American Legion,
women’s clubs and social organiza
tions are with us.
You be with us, too. Watch your
paper for notice of the chapter that
is shortly to be formed in your town,
and then, if someday war does
come, at least you can say to the
boy you love: “I’m sorry, son. Your
father and I did everything we could
to keep this terrible thing away from
you."
Fashion Designed
For Large Women
IT’S a button-front style (1902-B)
which is one thing decidedly to
recommend it, and this suave,
simple dress has lots of other good
points, too. It can be made with
plain v-neckline and edged with
bias fold. Or it can be made with
a narrow roll collar as its only
trimming. Sleeves are either
short or three-quarter length. It’s
simple and unhampering enough
for house wear, in gingham, linen
or chambray; also tailoredwiough
for the street, in thin wool, flat
crepe or small-figured print.
It has just the detailing you like,
if you have size to consider—a
bodice deftly gathered for correct
bust fit, beneath a smooth shoul
der-yoke, a slljm-hipped skirt, and
a waistline drawn in by a sash
bow or buckled belt. Everything
about it is slenderizing as well as
■mart.
