even when tie nights are the hottest.
LActated food fully meets every need Of
growing children. 1t is a perfect sub
stitute for mothers milk-sugsr milk Is
the basis OF both. Children weaned or
for any reason deprived Of breast milk
grow steadily and keep strong and we'll
when fod with this best OF all infant
foods.
Next to breast milk, when the mother
Is vigorous aud fully capable of bringing
up her baby, lactated food has no equal.
But hot weather reduces the richness
and abundance Of mothers milk as well
40 wsskens the child's appetite and
power of digestion.
Ia such cases laotated food Is far
superior to breast milk that has become
thin from pr0tracted nursing, or that for
any reason Is not agreeing with the child.
This is proved by tho splendid way In
which lactated food brings babies
through the teething period when they
are fretful and disinclined to eat Mt al.
Says Mrs Grace Agnew, Of 657 East
Sixth Street, Erie, Pa, in letter to the
proprietors Of this best of foods:
81 have been using lactsted food with
excellent results, since my little one wal
two months old, and am still using 1t
She likes 1t so we'll, and 1t agrees with
her 80 nicely that we are buying the
hospital size for her. Little vi was q
months old the 12th OF November, anC
weighs "a pounds, which is just three
times as much as when she WAS born
She held her own during teething tim'
aud the hot summer weather. and in the
last three months has gained three
pounds. She is the life OF the house, II
strong and healthy, and I feel sure WI
owe i6 to the use OF lactated food.
