spared no exertion to make 1t as successful az
some of their Pr evious ones and their confidence
in the rrjoyability of the event was infectious.

Good Babies.

It's jolly day from East to West,
For children thrive and mothers rest,
The darling girls all named Victoria,
And with the boys they have Castoria,
It is fact there il no may be-,
A mothers milk can't save the baby,
While sweet Castoria digests their food,
Gives them health and makes them good.
