Gents-I wish to tell you how much good your
Liquid Food is doing of the inmates of in
sttution who have been addicted to the habit of in
temperance, we having been using the same over
two years, and quote you two of last that
have been greatly tempted. One who came to us
lately in a most wretched state soon recovered her
health and has been enabled to overcome her desire
for strong drink. The Liquid Food seemed to sup
ply the want. She is now supporting herself in
respectable manner, and has no desire for strong
drink. Another person addicted to opium habits
for ten years has been able to leave off opium
tirely by being built up by your Liquid Food, and
feels it has done wonders for her in assisting her to
leave of this terrible habit. cannot express my
gratitude to you in any better way than to show you

Mothers, remember this. If your baby does not
thrive, do not change its food but add to 20 drops
of Liquid Food to each feeding; also, if nursing,
take teaspoonfuls daily.
Any married lady that cannot retain her food, or
has lost a child, under one year old, that was
brought up by hand, can have a bed assigned for
her for four months, which will build up her system
enabling her to retain her food in few days and
nourish her child.
She can have her own family physician if pre-
ferred.
When mothers nourish their babies the mortality
and sickness will be reduced rs per cent.
