Y., relates, 1 worked on a farm for a man by the name of Caleb Stimson. He did a great deal of buying and selling of fast horses, but he was never satls- fled. No matter what he bought, the horses never seemed quite speedy enough for him, Finally, Caleb heard of a very fast team In the West and immediately left by train to try to buy them. At the end of a week who ghould drive in but Caleb with the prettiest team horses that man ever lald eyes on. I eould see that Caleb was mighty proud of them. They had only one fault, he confided to me No one could complain on the score of thelr speed, for they m ber of the One day about an hour after Caleb had left town 1 thunderstorm coming up in the West, Remembering ha } if told fear 1 for him, The storm came negrer an I could hear roar of the rain as It came In sheet down the road Then I made Wis of a deadly fear of thunderstorms, assed a num- fast trains on way home, to drive to me of his horses’ waited unea nearer and finally the tows on about wt al rain as I ran to open the | When I looked again, the } coming faster thar and nch, The i i train gained an | ever, was f{ ular press r, ashing parti about completely encircling them, The, were regular rings of fire. 1 I was paralyzed with fear.

When he did come back, he told me he had kept ahead of the storm until iz was spent, but In doing so he had driven more than 200 miles outside the state, 1 need hardly say that Caleb's passion for fast horses was by now completely satisfied.

Here is way been an to skin be tested and ve, guleker we j | opinion i | i A doctor will tell you that the care- less use of harsh laxatives will often do more harm than good. Harsh laxatives often drain the system, weaken the bowel muscles, and even affect the liver and kidneys. Fortunately, the public is fast returning to laxatives in liguid form. Can Constipation be safely relieved? “Yes!” say medical men. “Yes!” say thousands who have followed this sensible medical advice: 1. Select a good liquid laxative. 2. Take the dose that you find suited to your system. 3. Gradually reduce the dose until bowels are moving regularly without assistance. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a rescriptional preparation contain- ing senna, a natural vegetable laxa- tive which relieves constipation ently and safely. Why not try it? wi pill or tablet may be more convenient to carry. But there is no “convenience” in any cathartic that’s taken so frequently, you must carry it wherever you gol What is the “Right” Laxative? In buving any laxative, read fhe label. Not the claims, but the confends. I it contains doubtful drugs, don't take it. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin contains no mineral drugs. By using it, you avoid danger of strain. How many dimes and quarters are spent on “popular” laxatives! How quickly they count up, if you frequently use habit-forming helps! A bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin would save vou money— and bring you real relief. m— Why Doctors give a liquid laxative The habitual use of harsa salts, or powerful drugs in the highly concentrated form of pills or tablets is risky. The properly prepared liquid laxative will bring a perfect movement without discomfort or injury. You need not take a “double dose™ a day or two later. The public can always get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin at any drug store.
