Neglected constipation causes the blood pressure to go up 28 per cent, and that is the forerunner of hardening of the arteries. It makes rheumatism and gout worse, too. The ideal constipation remedy for people of advancing years is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, a vegetable compound of Egyptian senna and pepsin with plcasanttas'.ing aromatics. It is gentle and mild, and does not cramp or gripe. It is a mistake to think you need a violent salt or powder or pill, calomel, coal-tar drugs and such things. They purge and

ANY FAMILY MAY TRY IT FREE Thousands of parents are asking themselves, “IV here ran I find a trustworthy laratue that anyone in the family ran use u hen constipated".'" I urge you to try Syrup Pepsin. / will gladly provide a liberal free sample bottle, sufficient for an adequate test. Write me where In send it. Address Dr. IV. It. Caldwell 51b Washington St., Monluellu, Illinois. Do U nou ! weaken you, and their reaction tends to make you more constipated than before. Now try the milder method. Dr. Caldwell's Svrup Pepsin does not lose its goud effect with repeated use, and increased doses are unnecessary. Mrs. E. M. Burgess of Enfield, N. C., who is 73, keeps herself in good health with it, and Air. Charles Chorinan of Stapleton, Staten island, N. Y., wasted fifteen years and considerable money on other remedies before finding steady relief with Syrup Pepsin. Use Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin yourself the next time you suffer from constipation, biliousness, headache, sleeplessness, indigestion, piles or night cramps. Many thousands of elderly people use nothing else, and it costs them less than a cent a dose. Druggists have sold it successfully for 30 years, and it is the most widely bought family laxative in the world.
