Ad How to be Certain of Curing Constipation Prejudice is a hard thing to overcome, aut where health is at stake and the opinion of thousands of reliable people Ilffers from yours, prejudice then be :omes your menace and you ought to lay it aside. This Is said in the inter est of people suffering from chronic Donstipation, and it is worthy of their attention. In the opinion of legions of reliable American people the most stubborn constipation imaginable can be cured by a brief use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. You may not have heard of it before, but do not doubt its' merits on that account, or because it has not been blatantly advertised. It has sold very successfully on word of mouth recom mendation. Parents are giving it to their children today who were given it by their parents, and it has been truth fully said that more druggists use it personally in their families than any other laxative.
