After suffering from chronic
constipation until she was so run
down she was unable to do any
kind of work, Miss 11. A. Frees,
2(d) Adams St., Dayton, Ohio, ob-
tained a bottle of Dr. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin and used it with
such gratifying results that she
•ontinued the treatment and has
written to Dr. Caldwell that her
condition is again normal,
that she wants to recommend
Syrup Pepsin to everyone who suf-
fers with constipation.
Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is
a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin, gentle in its ac-
tion and free from griping or oth-
er pain or discomfort, it con-
tains no opiate or narcotic drug,
and, while acting readily’ on the
most stubborn case of inactive
bowels, is absolutely safe for the
tiniest babe, so that it is the ideal
family laxative and should be
kept on hand in every household
for use when needed.

Look out for the all-cotton
next year and be prepared to sell him
his feed. No matter hoyv high the price
of cotton it never will pay the farmer to
raise all cotton and buy his feed. 1- e
feed man will get his surplus sure.
Stay with the feed and you will be on
safe ground. Just common old salt
grass hay is selling in Coleman at this
time for 50 cents per bale and sorghum
is worth more than 5 cents a bundle in
the field. Cotton isn’t the only farm
crop that is bringing in the cash.—
Coleman Leader. •
With wheat bringing $1.50, and the
price of porkers prohibitive, maize quo-
ted at $1.00, and everything else man
eats selling at “out o’ sight" prices, it
strikes us as being a mightly good time
to help starve the boll weevil to death
by not planting the entire country in
cotton. $100 bale cotton is calculated to
cause some fanners to lose their heads
and go the “whole hog” on cotton, and
run out at the little end of the horn
It's dangerous to depend on one crop of
anything in this country. Mix it.
That's our advise.
