OLD FOLKS SAY DR. CALDWELL WAS RIGHT The basis of treating sickness has not changed since Dr. Caldwell left Medical College in 1875, nor since he placed on the market the laxative prescription he bad used in his practice. He treated constipation, biliousness, headaches, mental depression, indigestion, sour stomach and other indispositions entirely by means of simple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of Dr. Caldwell’'s Syru Pepsin, a combination of senna other mild herbs, with pepsin. The simpler the remedy for constipa. tion, the safer for the child and for you. And as you can get results in a mild and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with strong drugs? A bottle will last several months, and all can use it. It is pleasant to the taste, gontle in action, and free from narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal. All drug stores have the generous bottles, or write “Syrup Pepsin,” Dept.

Walsh) OOOO 0000 ie tin HE ringing of the door bell sent Mira Bassett hurrying to the door. Mr. Hull stood there smil- ing and beyond him was the green truck which conveyed purchases made at the Hull furniture store to the homes for which they were In- tended. “Good morning, Mrs. Bassett!” sald the genial salesman, “We've got some- thing here for you that your husband bought this morning.” Mira tried to smile as the two men bore in the davenport and placed It in her small living room. It was a deep, puffy, inviting thing, but out of keeping with the rest of the furni- ture. “There, now!” sald Mr. Hull “How's that? Fine article, eh? Your husband has good taste, Mrs. Bassett.” Then he departed, pleased with his gale, leaving Mira alone In thoughtful contemplation of the davenport, A few days before Will had unex- pectedly received some money which he had thought entirely lost—a loan that had been outlawed. In his joy at the recovery of the amount he had guggest>d to Mira that they celebrate by getting something for their home that they wanted, Mira pleaded for a thorough renovation of her kitchen. Will had said nothing, but she had hoped that he understood. Instead, he had bought this davenport. Mira returned to the kitchen where she was making cake. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked about the room. The paper was dark with age and soil, the paint worn away with many washings, the linoleum full of holes. But it was the iron sink and the stove that troubled Mira most. At this moment were sifting down from the grate upon her for the oven had given out.

Her dough was spoiled, her hair was full of lime, her eyes smarted. But in- stead of crying Mira grew angry. She had been Will Bassett's wife for eighteen years. As a bride she aad found the house just as his mother had left it. Little had been done to the interior since, for although Will earned good wages he was frugal to the verge of stinginess He also thought what was good enough for his mother surely ought to be good enough for his wife. Without the house looked well enough, for Will kept it painted and he trimmed the grass weekly. For elghteen years Mira had kept the ma- chinery of the home running from an tmperfectly fitted engine room. She had accomplished marvels where many other women would have failed, but the time was past when a plece of tin and a brick in the stove, a strip of old window-shade on the ceiling or a plugging of putty in the leaky sink could succeed. Rebellion filled her heart, resolve crystallized, inspiration dawned. That noon when Will came home to lunch he found the table empty, Mira lay on the davenport. “What's the matter? Aren't you feeling well” demanded Will, aghast. “{ turned my ankle. I ghall have to keep off my feet for a day or two,” Mira answered. “And lunch isn't ready! 1 am sor ry about your ankle, but—I was plan- ning to go fishing this afternoon with Len Peters” As she did not reply he went on: “1 suppose I'd better stay home and look after things, eh?” “The kitchen's a sight” sighed Mira, turning her face away. “I'l see to that, Don't you worry, my dear. I'll have everything fixed up in a Jiffy. What had you planned to have for lunch?” Will took off his cont and rolled up his sleeves with an air of gay attack. He could do things about the house if he wanted to, for his long-ailing moth- er had carefully trained him. He laughed when he tied Mira’s apron about his waist, A moment later came a shout, “What's happened here? 1 never saw such a mess.

At lunch he was thoughtful, Imme- diately after Anne Spry came with a dish of gelatin for Mira. Anne was the neighborhood's by-the-day. “Wish you'd stay and work afternoon, Anne,” Will sald. Anne shrugged her shoulders. “You can't get me In that old kirch- en. I couldn't think of having my neck broken by falling plaster, and anyway I like modern imps myself,” she retorted. Will rubbed getting saucy,” Anne had gone, That afternoon and all the next day he struggled with the sink, the stove, the trippy linoleum. Occasionally he made a brief declaration—"“"We need a light in the cellar way,” or, “thera ought to be a new cold water faucet.” Monday morning came. Mira, hob bling about, returned to the kitchen. She was sorry for Will and provided an extra good breakfast for him. He had an uncomfortable week-end. Be sides she had enjoyed the davenport— really. An hour after Will left the Mr. Pratt knocked at the door. “Will Bassett sent me up here to do some work,” he sald, "He says the kitchen needs papering and painting.

This fear was un founded, but he died in 18524, soon after its completion. The manuscript was offered to a number of Western publishers, but none would assume the responsibility of bringing it out, and i was 11 years before Reynolds, who had taken charge of the manuscript, was able to redeem his promise to have it published by bringing it out ander the imprint of Harper & Bros. Glass hoped that his work would become a textbook in all the schools of Amerien. He believed that no tol lege student should receive the bach elor's degree until he had learned to read, write and speak Greek and Latin as well as English.

As the winter season reaches its months it becomes quite evident that the short jacket ensemble vogue Is no mushroom affair but a sta- ble style which will continue to hold its popularity throughout the season and which will be quite as much the badge of chic in December as it is just now, notes a fashion writer in the Cleveland News. Let it not be inferred, however, that the longer cont ensemble has been completely eclipsed. It is still very much among those smartly present. The privcipal feature of these longer coats is the sithouette which they present. In recgnt years It has been the custom for the dress portion of the various ensemble costumes to present the most concise silhouette features, while the coat was loose and gave only the vaguest hints of follow- ing any definite contour. But for this winter longer coats are so closely fol- lowing the lines of the silhouette that they give the Impression of a modified princess line. ted from the the walistline—it adheres to the mold- ed line at walst, fits snugly over the hips and then takes unto itself the luxury of a flure at the hemline, this flare achieved either circular lines.
