________________________
Doctors have always recognized the
value of the laxative whose dose can
be measured, and whose action can
tie thus regulated to suit individual
need.
The public, loo. is fast returning
to the use of liquid laxatives. People
have learned that a properly pre
pared liquid laxative brings a more f
natural movement wilhout any dis
comfort at the time, or after.
The dose of a liquid laxative can ;
be varied to suit the needs of the 1
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. It forms r.o habit; you i
need hot take a “double dose" a day
or two later. N'or will a mild liquid
laxative irritate the kidneys.
The wrong cathartic may often do
more harm than good.
*Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a
prescription, and is perfectly safe.
Its laxative action is based on senna
—a natural laxative. The bowels will
not become dependent on this form
