Safeguards Health of The Children Constipation, or inaction of the bowels, is a great menace to health. Cathartic or purgative remedies should never be given to children as the violence of their actiun tends to upset the entire digestive system.

This preparation contains no opiate, narcotic, or habit-forming drug of any description, is mild and gentle in its action, and brings relief in an easy, natural manner.

Its pleasant taste appeals to children and they tako it readily. Thousands of mothers have testified to the merit of Dr. Syrup Pepsin, and in countless homes it is the standard family remedy. A trial bottle, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W.
