It then becomes their daily task to avoid what they know to be chronic constipation. When exercise and light diet fai? it will 1* necessary to resort to art Scial means. Strong physics and cathartics, however, are not ad. isable for elderly people. They act too powerfully and a feeling of weakness results. What is needed is a laxative containing effective but mild properties. This is best found in Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin which is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin. It acts gently and without griping, and used a few days will train tbe digestive organs to do their work naturally again without other aid. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has been on the market since 1892 and was the private formula of Dr. W. B. Caldwell, who is himself How Drainage Raises Land Values The commercial results* of landdrainage are illustrated by increase of landprices in drainage districts, in a paper read before the National Drainage Congress by Isham Randolph, a Chicago engineer. In the Little River district of about eight hundred square miles, in Missouri, the best lands, we learn from an abstract of Mr. Randolph's paper in The Engineering News Record (New York), were sold at an average price of $16 peracre before the drainage was begun, while during 1918 and 1919 the average was $55, and some of the drained land has sold as high $75 per acre. We read further: "Concerning smaller districts in Missouri, the following figures may be cited: District No. 1 in New Madrid County was organized in 1898, and during 1899 several thousand acres of the best lands on the higher ridges cnU of on ?vpr?ce of ?6.30 Der v>V*U % ** ? ? ?.D ?

It can be bought at any drug store and one bottle is enough to last even a large family many months. It is a trustworthy preparation. In spite of the fact that Dr. Coldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the largest selling liquid laxative in the world, there being over 6 million bottles sold each year, many who need its benefits have not yet used it If you have not, send your name and address for a free trial bottle to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 511 Washington St, Monticello, Illinois. r land was sold at an average of $9.70 per acre, while a fair average at the | present time would be $125 per acre, I and some sales have been made at! close to $200 per acre. In the Spring | Lake district, in Illinois, before re-! clamation, the fair market-value was about $3 per acre, but now the price is firm at $300. In the Banner Special Drainage and Leveedistrict, in Illinois, with 46,000 acres, the price before reclamation was about $3.60 per acre, while now it is $275 to $300, and in a partition suit the commissioners have appraised uncleared property on the basis of $300 per acre. One year after drainage a tract formerly val- j ued at $25 per acre produced onions which sold for mare than $800 per acre. As the cost of raising the crop was something over $200, the net return on the land was $600 per acre for that year. Concerning Arkansas, Mr. Randolph quoted from a letter by Willis Ayres, consulting engineer, Memphis, Tenn. In Mississippi County, Ark., approximately $5,000,000 has been expended for drainage in .
