Children CIV for UaStOria.-It
is as pleasant to take as honey, ana is
absolutely harmless. 1t is sure to ex-
pei worms, cure wind collie, regulate
the bowels and stomach, and overcome
irritabilty caused by rash or cutting
teeth. It is perfect substitute for
Castor Oil, and for Costiveness in
young or old there is nothing in exis-
tence so effective and reliable.
The latest, greatest,-and most
reliable remedy ever put together by
medical sience Tor Rheutism, Wounds,
Swellings, Burns, Caked Breast, &C.,
is the Centaur Liuiment There are
two kinds. What the White Lini-
ment is for human family, the Yellow
Centaur Linament is for spawned,
