Condition.

Mrs. Parnell Found in a Serious
Condition.
BORDENTOWN, n. j., April 49,
Mrs. Della II. ParnelI, mother of
the late Chas. Stewart Parnell,
who lives at IronSide, overlooking
the Delaware river near here, was
found bleeding and unconscious
late last night by Charles Casey,
son OF the farmer who is in charge
Of the farm at Ironside. He found
Mrs. Parnell lying beside the
fence with her face covered with
blood; by her side were two small
pieces of board, piece OF fence
paling, about three feet long, and
a brick. Help was obtained and she
W. carried to the house Of farmer,
Casev. DIR. w. II. Ships who was
hastily summonel, made an exam
nation and found beside several
bruises about the face, the woman
had wound on the right side Of
her head. Mrs. Parnell is uncons-
cious, and because OF her adj
vanced age, her condition is
regarded as critical. The authori-
ties are unable to determine wheth-
er she was assaulted or fell and re-
ceived her injuries. Her handbag
was found alongside the railroad
track near by, with her pocket
book missing and papers scattered
in all directions. This circum-
stance lends a probability to the
theory that she was brutality as
saulted and robbed.

Delicate, Sickly Ones Thrive Won
derfulIy or II.

The hot weather puts a pressing ques-
tion to every mother question that
demands an immediate answer.
1t is impossible to postpone looking
the great problem of infant-feeding fully
in the face. Has every precaution been
taken TO keep baby well during the sum-
mer? Is the baby running any risk from
cholera infantumY
People have begun to learn that medi-
cines for infants are more sparingly used
in physicians families than in any
others, and that the well-educated phys
ician, when the mothers milk for any
reason, is not sufficient, brings up his
own children on lactated food.
There are no healthier or plumper
babies than those fed on lactated food.
Fewer cases OF summer diarrhoea and
cholera infantum occur in homes where
this superb nutriment is employed than
in others. The most carefully, intelli-
gently guarded children are those fed on
lactated food. Every infant who is not
thriving, has poor color, or shows small
gains in weight and size, should be given
this perfect infant food. IL is relished by
young children, and there is no difficulty
in inducing them TO take II in quantities
sufficient to insure their growth and
healthy condition. During the ex-
haustive hot days of summer, while
teething and during the weaving period,
lactated food stands its best test as an
ideal infant food for all trying occasions.
When for any reason the mother cannot
nurse the child, or when her milk is
insufficient or poor in quality, the best
trained nurses use lactated food at once.
1t is known to invariably make firm flesh,
clear skin, bright eyes, and to
afrpnUt hen he hOdV that dlarrnOea.
cholera infantum and exhausting summer
sickness do not easily gain a footing.
And a great blessing 1t Is to countless
humble homes that for 25 cents mother
can buy q package that contains enough
to make 10 pints of pure cooked food.
