Dear Mr. Wynn: --

: ! Answer: 1 know the people you
refer to, and It is a fact that the
husband beats his wife . up every
morning. He gets up at 6:00 a. m.

I find that the importance of flies is
a subject to think about Some
folks like flies, others don't I know
one man who owns a candy store
and he likes flies so much that he
has just engaged a blacksmith for
his store. This blacksmith la sup
posed to "shoo the flies." On the
other hand, I hear, every day, of a;
man named Babe Ruth who dobsift

as' he keeps hitting flies over the
fence. Now I would like very much
to help yon, so after years of re
search Fork I And the best place to
keep a fly,' If yon do not want It
disturbed at all, la In a Scotchman's
pocketbook. ' ,

Doctors Know!
as and they use
" liquid laxatives
f-rsri-v-r;1. .- .--.
You'd use a liquid, too, if you knew
how much better it makes you feel.
A liquid laxative can always be
taken in the right amount. You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
dosage it the secret . of real and safe
relief from constipation.
Just ask your own doctor about
this. Ksk your druggist how popular
liquid laxatives have become. The
right liquid laxative gives the right
kind of help end the right amount
of help, men the dose is repeated,
instead of more each time, you take
less. Until the bowels are moving
regularly and thoroughly without aid.
People who have experienced this
comfort, never return to any form of
help that can't be regulated! The
liquid laxative generally used is Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It contains
senna and cascara, and these are
natural laxatives that form no habit.
It relieves a condition of biliousness
or sluggishness without upset.
To relieve your occasional upsets
safely and comfortably, try Syrup
Pepsin. The druggist has it
