TWo.Thirds Die in Sum-
mer Of Bowel Disorders,
The Scourge of Infants In
der Five Years.
Why lactated Food Is a Sure Pre-
v.ntative.
II Makes WEAVING in Summer an Easy Un.
dertaking.

The first five years of every baby's
life is only a sort of probation.
Insurance companies refuse to take
the risk of their living, n no n will
be surprised who counts the funerals
with the white hearse that sadden h
streets of every city and village
throughout the summer.
Half the deaths in June are those OF
children under five years.
A third of all who die every year are
infants.
If every one of the children who sue
cumbed to intestinal diseases had been
fed on a diet of pure lactated food
there would have been no fatal cholera
infantum. The following words from
DIR. A. =. Grinnell, the dean of the med
ical faculty of the University Of YER
mont. should sink deepintO the hearts of
every mother who is worried and q d
dened as the hot days and nights begin
to show their facilitating effect on
baby's eating. sleeping inc growing.
After using lactated food for FIVE
years in cases of children suffering
from cholera infantum, and in debilita-
ting or wasting diseases. during which
time it has never failed me, 1 have
pleasure in calling the attention Of
physicians to it, and in recommending
its use"
There is nothing equal to lactated
food to take the place Of mothers milk.
1t is made for the express purpose Of
forming a perfect substitute for healthy
mothers milk. as analysis will show.
Children who are not eating well take
lactated food without the need of coax
ing.
Baby must not stop eating heartily
when hot weather comes Loss of
strength is more dangerous at such
times than any other. rssss
The danger lies in h child's food
proving indigestible, clogging and irri-
tating, and thus inviting diarrhea and
cholera infantum. For these reasons
mothers and physicians find lactated
food so necessary n SO satisfactory.
The marvellous success of this food
in keeping babies strong, we'll and
growing during the most dangerous
heated months car be understood by a
glance at it's thoughtful composition.
Natures food for babies, the mothers
milk. has been the model. The princi-
pal element of breast milk is sugar of
milk. This is the basis of lactated food.
With it are combined the nutritious
elements of the great cereals. wheat.
oats and barley, so prepared as to be
readily digested and assimilated. The
addition of the salts found in mothers
milk makes lactated food a perfect
substitute.
Many a mother, too. has been
strengthened by using it. 1t makes
nursing easy by providing an abun-
dance of rich breast milk.
Thousands of infants whoco u,othnrc
nave been sickly have thrived and
grown to be strong children upon lac
tated food, which is as pure and health
giving as the air among the hills of the
Green Mountain State where It is made.
