Record Candy Sales.
The three candy stores advertising "Spec-
ials" yesterday had another record day's
pales, the Olympla leading this time with
a sale of 460 pounds of the advertised kind.
The Gem and Zacharlas both enjoyed big
business also, probably the only reason they
fell behind the Olympla being the fact that
they both featured chocolates, which meant,
«t course, that the trade in chocolates was
divided between them while the Olympla
^bad the pecan candy special to itself.
All together, there was something over
800 pounds of the advertised candy sold by
the three stores.

A Laxative for Babies
Good for Everybody
Dp. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
a Safe and Efficient Fam-
ily Remedy.
Every member of the family Is more
or less subject to constipation and
every home should always be supplied
with a dependable remedy to prompt-
ly relieve this condition. Whenever
the bowels become clogged and the
natural process of elimination thereby
disturbed, the entire system is
affected and readily subject to at-
tack by disease. Constipation is a j
condition that should never be neg-
lected.
Mrs. E. n. Gilbert, of Millbro, Va„
says that I >r. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
is a splendid laxative for children be-
cause they like its pleasant taste, and
it. acts so easily and naturally, with-
out griping or strain, and she finds it
equally effective for the rest of the
family.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is a
combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that contains no opiate
or narcotic drug. It is mild and gen-
tle in its action, and does not cause
pain or discomfort. Druggists every-
where sell this excellent remedy for
50 cents a bottle.
To avoid imitations and ineffective
substitutes be sure you get Dr. Cald-
f\rs.E.R„GilLer{ l
well's Syrup Pepsin. See that a fac-
simile of Dr. Caldwell's signature and
his portrait appear on the yellow car-
ton in which the bottle is packed. A
trial bottle, free of charge, can be ob-
tained by writing to Dr. W. H. Cald-
well, 455 Washington, St., Monticello,
Illinois.—Adv.
