Bowels Get Weak
As Age Advances
The First Necessity is to Keep the
Bowels Gently "Open With a Mild
Lavative Tonic
Healthy old age is so absolutely de
pendent upon the cor.ditin of tj,c"
bowels that great care should be
liken to see that they act regularly.
The fact is thatas age advances the
stomach muscles become weak and in
active and the liver does not store up
the juices that are necessary to
prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
plenty of exercise, but this latter is
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing is certain that a state of con
stipation should always be avoided
as it is dangerous to life and health.
The best plan is to take a mild lax
ative as often as is deemed neces
sary. But with equal certainty it is
suggested that Cathartics, purgatives,
physics, salts and pills be avoided, as
they do but temporary good and are
so harsh as to be a shock to a delicate
system.
A nneh better plan and one that
thousands of elderly people are fol
lowing, is to" take a gentle laxative
tonic like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, which acts as nearly like na
ture as possible. In fact the tendency
of this remedy is to strengthen the
stomach and bowel muscles and
so train them to act naturally again,
when medicines of all kinds can usu
ally be dispensed with. This is the
opinion of many people of different
ages, among them Mr. O. P. Miller,
Baroda, Mich., who writes: "I am
80 years old and have been constipat
ed for many years. Since receiving
your sample bottle I have procured

two 50c bottles and find that it is
the best remery I ever used and does
just what you claim for it to tiij
very letter. I cannot recommend it
too highly.
A bottle can be bought at any
druggist's at 50 cents or one dollar.
People usually buy the 50 cent size
first and then, having convinced
themselves of its merits they buy the
dollar size which is more economical.
Results are always guaranteed or
money will be refunded. Any elderly
person can follow these suggestions
with safety and assurances of ood
results.
If no member of your family has
ever used Syrup Pepsin and you would
like to make a personal trial of it be
fore buying it in the regular way of a
druggist, send your address a postal
will do to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 417
Washington St., Monticello, 111., and
a free sample bottle will be mailed
you.

More Thorough Preparation of Soil
For Coming Crop Than Usual
New Feature Added at School
Corresponaence of The Robesonian.
Barnesville, Feb. 8 Never before as
this year have we seen so much real
interest manifested in the thorough
preparation of the soil for the coming
crop. From present indications it
seems that the crops will be divided
among the three principal crops, corn
cotton, and tobacco. The soil of our
section is especially suited to the pro
duction of the last-named plant.
Among other things of which we
boast is our school. The work con
tinues to move along, and it seems
that an honest effort is being made
to accomplish the most possible. A
new feature has been added to the
school, which will mean much to the
student body, and the community at
large, a lecture course for the spring
term. The first lecture will be de
livered on Friday night, March 7th,
by Rev. A. H. Porter of Whiteville.
Mr. Porter, it is said, is a good speak
er, and we are looking forward to his
lecture with a great deal of pleasure.
Following this will be another lec
ture by Prof. Owens on a subject deal
ing in history and economics. The
lecture.which will follow that has not
been arranged, and will be announced
later. These lectures are free and
it is hoped that everybody will avail
themselves of this opportunity to in
form themselves on the subjects
which will be discussed.
Much preparation is being made for
the debate on woman suffrage to be
held on the night of the 22nd of Feb
ruary. This promises to be the live
liest discussion of the year. The
speakers are determined to win at all
hazards. In view of the rapid pro
paganda of the woman's right to the
ballot, this promises to be instructive
as well as interesting. ,
Lat Saturday and Sunday Mr and
Mrs. Owen Powers of Chadbourn were
the guests of Mrs. II. V. Powers, their
mother.
The Misses Carmichael, of Fork, S.
C, are visiting their cousin Miss Alice
Floyd for a few days.
Today Miss Keetcr, Misses Blanch
and Ellen Powers, and Prof. Owens
were delightfully entertained at din

No Time to Lose
Things Must Move Rapidly
A Few Remarks by R. D. Caldwell & Son
February and March are months of great importance
to farmers. Crops must be fully planned, fertilizers
bought, contracts made for year's supply of furnishings,
so there is No Time to Lose Things Must Move Rapidly.
There is much to be done. The successful farmer gets
busy now. Stalks must be cut We sell the genuine Mc
Kay Stalk Cutters and the International Stalk Cutters
Plows must turn the soil this is easy with a genuine
Oliver Plow, either one or two-horse. We have received a
car load of these plows. We sell also Blounts "Daisy" one
horse plow, and Blounts "True Blue" Middle Busters.
Mules and horses get fat plowing with these plows, and the
farmer gets rich. We sell Cotton King Disc Harrows,
Cultivators, Etc.
No Time to Lose Things Must Move Rapidly !
Fertilizers must be bought We make it a point to. sell
Fertilizers that we have good reason to believe will give
good results. If our customers prosper, we prosper--if
they lose, we lose. So we study and plan to help our cus
tomers in their efforts to succeed. We can supply most
any demand made on us. Great stock of goods. Try us
the year 1913. Our old friends stick to us and we have
a glad hand to welcome other friends. Come to see us.
