Some testify they were cured for as little as fifty cents, years ago, and that the trouble never came back on them, while others admit they took several bottles before a steady cure was brought about. The remedy referred to is Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin. It has been on the market for over a quarter of a century and has been popularized on its merits, by one person tellinrr another. I The fact that its strongest supporters are women and elderly people the ones most persistently constipated makes it certain that the claims regarding it as a. permanent cure for constipation have not been exaggerated. It is not violent like cathartic pills, Baits or waters, but operates gently. COMMISSIONER' SALE. ADAIR CIRCUIT COUET OF KENTUCKY. Lula Leach &c Plff. ) George O.
