CALLS FOR TWO EGGS—Women

demand equal rights. But if they
ask for both, it's like asking for
the same egg both hard-boiled
and scrambled.

Pull the Trigger on
Lazy Bowels, and Also
Pepsin-ize Stomach!
When constipation brings on acid indi-
gestion, bloating, dizzy spells, gas, coated
tongue, sour taste, and bad breath, your
stomach is probably loaded up with cer-
tain undigested food and your bowels don't
move. So you need both Pepsin to help
break up fast that rich undigested food in
your stomach, and Laxative Senna to pull
the trigger on those lazy bowels. So be
sure your laxative also contains Pepsin.
Take Dr. Caldwell's Laxative, because its
Syrup Pepsin helps you gain that won-
derful stomach-relief, while the Laxative
Senna moves your bowels. Tests prove the
power of Pepsin to dissolve those lumps of
undigested protein food which may linger
in your stomach, to cause belching, gastric
acidity and nausea. This is how pepsin-
izing your stomach helps relieve it of such
distress. At the same time this medicine
wakes up lazy nerves and muscles in your
bowels to relieve your constipation. So see
how much better you feel by taking the
laxative that ateo puts Pepsin to work on
that stomach discomfort, too. Even fin-
icky children love to taste this pleasant
family laxative.. Buy Dr. Caldwell's Lax-
ative—Senna w'ith Syrup Pepsin at your
druggist today 1

pairs, using No. 40 cotton thread
to sew them. Braid three cords
together and then sew the braided
Strip around and around to make
the center of the mat. Sew a row
of the circles to the edge of this
center part; then add another
braided row, being careful to

enough to keep the mat flat. Con-

The first officer called a deckhand
to him and said: "Go below and
break up that poker game."
The sailor was away for the better
part of an hour. When he returned
the officer barked: "Did you break
up that game?"
"Yes, sir," said the sailor.
"What in thunder took you so
long?" demanded the officer.
"Well, sir," the sailor replied, "I
nad only three pence to start
with."
