Last June, Dick Crawford brought
his twelve months old child, suffering
from infantle diarrhoea, to me. It
had been weaned at four months old
and being sickly everything ran
through it like water through a sieve.
I gave it the usual treatment in such
cases but without benefit. The child
kept growing thinner until it weighed
but little more than when born, or
perhaps ten pounds. 4 then started
the father to giving Chamberlain's

Before one bottle of the Is cent size
had been used, a marked improvement
was seen and it's continued use cured
