Why do people come home from a.
hospital with bowels working like a :
well-regulated watch? - j , - v .
' The answer Is simple, and it's the '
answer to all your bowel. worries if
yon will only realize it: many doctors
and hospitals use liquid laxatives. ' .
. If yon knew what a doctor knows,
yon would use only the liquid form.
A liquid can always be takvj in
gradually reduced doses. Redan i
dotage it ihe teeret of ang real relij
from constipation. '
; K Ask a doctor about this. Ask yonr
druggist how very popular liquid
laxatives have become. They give the
right kind of help, and right amount -of
help. The liquid laxative generally v
used is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
It contains senna and cascara both : -natural
laxatives that can form no'
habit even id children. So. try Syrup .
Pepsin. Yon "just take - regulated .
doses till Nature restores regularity.'
