Prescription He Wrote
in 1892 is the World’s
Most Popular Laxative
When 1 started to practice medi
cine, hack in Is7"», the needs for a
laxative were not as preat as thev
are today. People lived normal,
quiet lives, ate plain) wholesome
food, and pot plenty of fresh air
and sunshine. But even that early
frhere were pills, tablet* and salt
waters for the relief of con4tin%
lion, and artificial remedies made
from coal tar, which I did not be
lieve were pood for human beings
lo put into their system. So I
wrote a prescription for a laxative
to prescribe to my patients.
The prescript ion for constipation
that 1 used early in mv practice,
und which I put'in drug stores in
1892 under the name of Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid
vegetable remedy, and I have never
had reason to change it. 1 intended
it for women, children and elderly
people, and they need just such a
mild, safe, gentle bowel stimulant
as Syrup Pepsin. ,
I am gratified to say that under
?uece=sful management my prescrip
tion has proven its worth and is
now the largest selling liquid laxa
tive in the world. The fact that I
millions of bottles are used a year
proves that it has won the confi
dence of people who needed it to
get relief from headaches, bilious
ness, flatulence, indigestion, lose of

VOTE THURSDAY Hold Son Witness Against
ON DEBENTURE Mother in Slaying Probe
Coalition of Republicans
And Democrats Feel
Win Over Hoover
WASHINGTON. June 12.—<AA—
The house will vote, probably to
morrow, on the export debenture
plan cf farm relief. To that extent,
at least, the coalition of democrats
and republican independents in the
senate who have steadfastly insist
ed upon inclusion of this proposal
in the general farm bill stood victo
rious today over the opposition of
President Hoover and his support
ers in congress.
The agreement to brine th" issue
to a vote m the hoti.e. where surh
action ht ; been resist'd throughout
the lone controversy that has held
up enactment of the farm relief
legislation, was reached at a White
House conference last night after
the senate had rejected the joint
conference report recommending
elimination of the debenture sec
tion from its bill.
The White House meeting, at
tended by republican leaders of
b» th branches of congress, was
called after the president lud made
public a statement reiterating his
op|)c. it km to the debenture plan
and expressing in unmistakable
terms his support cf the com pro
in " bill presented in the Joint, con
ference report and accepted by the
house.
Senate democratic leaders today
carded the decision to bring the
debenture plan to a vote in the
house vtr.uallv a* a complete vic
tory for their contention. Senator
Robinson of Arkansas, democratic
leader, asserted m a statement is
sued after the senate rejected the
report, that "if the house takes a
vote and jrjerts the debenture plan,
its advocates in the sena e will be
constrained to yield, end the hill
will be pas: ed with debentures
eliminated."
The senate vote on rejection of
the report was 4i> to 43. as com
pered with 47 to 44 at the time the
plan was written into th*- bill after
P**1 sklent Hoover had outlined his
opposition to it on ten counts.
