Mothers.

There are upon the skin of every hu-
man being, child and adult alike, 2, 800
900 pores. Through these pores in the
form of insensible perspiration, is ex-
PEELED more than one-quarter of the
nourishment taken into the system.
The importance of keeping open these
perspiration valves upon a child's body,
is second only to thgt Of promptly di-
costing the TODD eaten. 1t was to open
the pores of the skin and to assimilate
the food that DR.. Pitcher formulated
Castoria. Loose bowels, constipation,
feyers and ernpticns which are so con-
STINT among infants and children, and
which kill one-third of all children be-
fore they are five years old, arise prin-
cipally from these two causes. It Is
from the wonderful results attendant
upon the use of Castoria in regulating
the stomachs and bowels ard keeping
open the pores of the skin, that Casto-
ria acquired its world wide reputation.
With plenty Of water for the body,
pure air for the lungs and Castoria to
assimilate the food, there need be no
unaccounted for sickness among chill
dren. Castoria is vegetable prescrip-
ton without morphine or other narcotic
property. Thirty years extensive use
has given it history yer attained by
another medicine.
