J - bowel tr Constipation may very easily become chronic after forty. And any continued constipation at that time of life may bring attacks of piles and a host of other unpleasant disorders. Watch your bowels at any age. Guard them with particular care after forty. \YLc never they need any help, remember a doctor should know what is best for thorn. . , . "Dr. Caldwell'? Syrup Pepsin is a d- Vs prescription for tht bowels. Tested by 17 years' practice, it has been found thoroughly effective in relieving consti- , pa lion and its ills for men, women and children of all ages. It has proven perfectly safe even for babies. Made frcin fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin and other harmless ingredients, it cannot gripe; will not sicken you or weaken you; can be used without harm as often as your breath is bad, or when your tongue is coated,; whenever a headachy, bilious, gassy condition warns of constipation. _ i DR.

COURIER 'CLIFFSIDE MAN IS SHOT IN LEG Shelby, June 29.—Walter Canipe, young white man of Cliffside, was shot in the right leg at 1:35 Friday ! afternoon when a sawed-off shotgun jin the automobile of Deputy Sheriff | Bob Kendrick was accidentally dis | charged while officers were preparing Ito unload nine gallons of captured I whiskey from the Kendrick automo i i bile which was parked on the walk lat the east entrance of the county. I I ! court house. The gun, loaded with buckshot, 1 I was lying on the floorboard just in front of the front seat of the tour-j ing car. Deputy John Howard crawled into the front seat to help unload j the whiskey from the rear seat.: Canipe, his cousin and a number of other psople were standing on each side of the car looking at the . captured whiskey. Just as Deputy- Hord got in the car the gun was in ' some manner discharged. It was first thought that the deputy's foot may have struck it, but how the gun could have been cocked is not known. One supposition is that some of the onlookers may have picked it up and laid it down just before ;t was jarred and discharged. The load of shot ploughed through the [ lower portion of the door, leaving a hole a little larger than a silver dollar, and struck Canipe in the right leg, just below the thigh. Deputy Ben Cooper and Police Officer B. O. Hamrick picked up the wounded man, carried him to an automobile and rushed him to the ; Shelby hospital. . The shooting attracted consider able attention as a large crowd of people had already gathered about the city hall and court house view the whiskey. Canipe's wound was described by Drs. Harbison and Schenck as be ing of "a serious type." An X-ray photo made at 2 o'clock revealed a compound fracture of the right leg several inches above the knee where . the load of shot hit. None of the shot passed entirely through the leg. The flesh wound was described j as not being as serious as the slant- j ing break in the bone. Canipe has been working, he said, j at Cliffside but was in Shelby vis iting his uncle, Henx*y Sisk, and his cousins. His home is near Char lotte. MULE KICKS CHILD. Master Owen Irvin, the seven yearj old son of Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Irvin was seriously hurt Sunday morning, j The child had taken a mule to thej | pasture and when he took off the; bridle the mule turned and kicked; him in the face. He was rushed to the doctor's office immediately, and it was found that it would be neces sary to take several stitches in the; little fellow's chin. At latest reports! the youngster is resting fine.
