^ Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell is Right
\ The basis of treating sick-
ness has not changed since
Dr. Caldwell left Medical Col-
lege in 1875, no* since he
% placed on the market the la-
xative prescription he had
used in his practice, known
to druggists and the public
^ since 1892, as Dr Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin.
Then, the treatment of con-
stipation, biliousness? head-
^ aches, mental depression, indi-
gestion, sour stomach and
other indispositions that result
from constipation was entirely
. by means of simple- vegetable
* laxatives, herbs and roots.
These are still the basis of
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which is a combination of £en-
% na and other mild laxative
herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for
constipation, the safer for the
* child and for you> and the
better for the general health
of all. And as you can get
results in a mild rand safe way
^ by using Dr.Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin, why take* chances with
strong drugs?
A bottle of Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin will last a fa-
mily several months, and all
can use it. It is good for the
baby because pleasant to the
taste, gentle in action, and
» free from narcotics. In proper
dose, given in the directions,
it is equally effective at all
ages. Elderly people will find
it especially ideal. All drug

that by the time he had com-
pleted the call to the Fire De-
partment and returned outside
that it looked like the entite
inside of the building was on
fire. Quick work was made of
laying hose to the fire but it
spread so fast that two sides
of the sheet iron building were
red hot before water could be
put on, and the only thing
the department could do was
to keep the fire from spread-
ing. Three lines of hose were
strung from the _ Seagrave
pumper and the pumper was
kept going for 4 hours to sup-
ply the three hose lines with
an enormous pressure. Despite
the fact that some of the pi-
pes had been tornj vip and
temporary plugs and cut offs
put in, there was no interrup-
tion in the water supply al-
though the pumps at the pow-
er house were connected di-
rectly with the mains. Two
lines of hose were strung from
the plugs on Front and Hop-
kins street, five Knes being
laid and used over the four
hour period.
The loss is estimated at
$100,000 for the contents and
$9,000 for the building and
was only partially covered by
insurance. Both the building

work will continue till the

Demonstration School Zones
One of the best means of
improving teachers in service
is observation schools, besides
the attendance upon one or
more of these observations
will fulfill the institute law,
which requires the teachers to
attend 5 days. Several schools
conveniently located in the
county have been selected to
g^ve these demonstrations.
They are Breslau on Oct. 20,
Baursville on November 10,
Michna on Oct. 27, Mossy
Grove on November 3, Sweet
