a Cause tor Infant Mortality

The accomplished DR. Dickson, of
Philadelphia, in his recent valedictory
address to the graduates of the Jefferson
medical college, speaking of the bills of
mortality, says
In contemplating these registers you
will be struck with horror at the i'm
mense proportions of infant mortality,
the most humiliating oppobrium Of civilI-
cation, and of the divine art of healing.
How shall this plague be stayed2 How
shall we prevent the early extinction of
half the newborn children of men2
These inquiries have been echoed and
Te-eehoed, but have received answers
which have been only partially satisfac-
tory. In such a changeable climate as
ours there is In flannel worn next Co the
skin an almost certain protection against
the diseases that produce the terrible IN
FAINT mortality with which we are so often
shocked.
Rich people, and people who are not
rich, from feeling of vanity, decline to
clothe their infants in wooden fabrics
from their chin to their toes, because it
deprives them of the satisfaction of ex-
hibiting their little ones in iow-necked
and short-sleeved dresses, and because
flannel underclOthes and wooden stock
ings do not admit of such display If or
namentsl stitehings rs cambria ones.
Sensible mothers who discard the low
necked, short-sleeved dresses for their
infants, and adopt the flannel covering,
We will venture to sry, have no occasion
to shed us many tears over little collins
ss those who follow to the grave the
tender victims Of their vanity House

tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS Pills have been known for
more than a quarter of century, and have
obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the clements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-cOating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
