When experts agree it is folly to dis
pute them.
The extraordinary mortality from vari-
pus forms of indigestion this summer
has led TO a careful inquiry, and the best
authorities upon the subject in this city
have freely expressed their opinions.
The most eminent physicians in Bos-
Ion were interviewed yesterday. The
following question was put to each one
Of them:
'In view of the increasing death rate
of infants in Boston, what do you rec
Dmmend?'
Said DR.. d. f. Roche. who was found
at his office on Chambers street:
There is nothing equal to lactated
food, and It's use is fast becoming gen
eral among the profession. l have rec
commended it for several years, ever
since the attention of the medical pro-
fession was first called to Prof. Boyn-
toms success i'll making it.
1--WE find that it is retained on the
stomach where other things are not re-
tanned. The great difficulty to combat
in both natural and artificial foods i'll
these days Of danger to the little ones,
is that they will not stay upon the
stomach.
But may say, and all my profess
siOnal friends have found, that the best
results have followed the use OF lactated
food, and cannot speak too highly of
it as a long-tried and faithful diet. For
cholera infantum find it most valuable,
and l generally give small portions,
often repeated, whenever am called to
attend such cases.
Frequently at crisis, when the little
life is
TREMBLING IN THE BALANCE,
and something has been needed TO tide
over the emergency, this good food has
been the pebbles edge that has turned
the stream of life back to It's healthy
condition"
DR.. Willard ID. Ball was found at his
residence in Dorchester. The doctor
has two children, one years old and
another s months, as handsome children
as a Reynolds could paint. Said the
doctor:
1.-The neighbors often inquire of me
upon what feed my babies, and my in
variable reply is upon lactated food.
Both of them have been brought up on
it."
And, as the doctor went on to praise
the merits Of the food, that plump little
baby of his smiled and waved its fat
hands vigorously, as if emphasizing the
fathers remarks.
Il buy large-siZed box Of lactated
food regularly every week." said the
doctor. Il have found that it does not
purge and then bind the infant, as
many other foods are known to do.
Nothing else is required to be taken as
a corrective with this food, as / have
found is customary and indispensable
with other foods.
"In my own experience l have fire
quently found that cows milk must be
very thin to be retained by some in
fants, and that rich milk-that of Jer-
Sey cows-Will not do. But this lactated
food is as nourishing as the latter, and
is more easily digested than the former.
My boy, three years old, eats all the
lactated food he wants, and we give the
baby plenty of it.
II wish to say" said the doctor, sand
j think that voice the sentiments of
great many, that the Wells & Richard
son Company, who make this food, do
not say more for it than it can really do.
Its fame is assured"
