lows Soothing Syrup was just the article
needed, procured supply tor the child,
On reaching home and acquainting his
wife with what he had done, she refused to
have it administered to the child, as she

parents without sleep. Returning home the
day following, the father found the baby
still worse; and while contemplating an
other sleepless night, the mother stepped
from the room to attend to some domestic
duties, and left the father with the CHILD.
During her absence he administered por-

morning bright and happy. The mother
was delighted with the sudden and wonder

at the deception pracliced upon her, has
continued to use the Syrup, and suffering,
crying babies and restless nights have dis.
appeared. A single trial of the Syrup
