10 Reliable Laxative Relieved Child Was Badly Constipated] Until Mother Tried Simple Remedy. In spite of every care and atten tion to diet, children are very apt to become constipated, a condition re sponsible for many ills in after life unless promptly relieved. Mrs. C. W. Wilson, of Shelbyville. Tenn., had trouble with her baby boy. Woodrow, until she heard of Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin. She writes, "I oan safely say Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is the best remedy of Its kind on earth. It acts so gently and yet *o surely. Little Woodrow was very badly constipated and we could find nothing that gave relief until we tried your Syrup Pepsin, which gave im mediate relief." Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is a compound of simple laxative herbs, free from opiates or narcotic drugs, mild in action, positive in effect and pleasant to the taste. It has been pre scribed by Dr. Caldwell for more than a quarter of a century and can now be had for fifty cents a bottle in any Idle Cars Show Decrease; Box Equipment Scarce Idle cars on the railroad lines in the United States and Canada on February 1 were 21,485. a decrease of ' 25.470 as compared with January 1. This is the smallest number of idle cars reported since November 1, 1912 when there was a net shortage of 1542 cars. There was a net shortage on February 1 of 8416 boxcars, one rea son probably being the congested con dition of some of the Atlantic termin als, preventing the unloading of cars. In the New York district it was re cently estimated that between 40.000 and 50,000 cars were tied up. Many of the cars so held are boxcars load ed with merchandise for export and this has resulted in a scarcity of box cars in some sections.

The Kxpression of Many a Kidney Sufferer in Harrisburg A stubborn backache is cause to suspect kidney trouble. When the kidneys are inflamed and swollen, stooping brings a sharp twinge in the small of the back, that almost takes the breath away. Doan's Kidney Pills revive sluggish kidneys—relieve aching backs. Here's Harrisburg proof: F. Rotehorn, railroad conductor, 434 Peffer St., Harrisburg, says: "I am subject to attacks of lumbago, more so when I take cold. T have been so bad at times that when I made a quick move or attempted to bend over. I got a sharp stitch in my back. A few doses of Doan's Kid ney Pills have always relieved me of the misery. They gave relief after everything else had failed to do me any good." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Rotehorn had.

Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair When you wash your hair, be care ful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use Is just plain mulsifled cocoanut oil. for this Is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly ami evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and taken out every particle of dust, dirt and i dandruff.
