Hot weather must not be allowed to
weaken the child's digestion nor pre-
vent its eating heartily. Many parents,
knowing the vital Importance of keep
ing baby abundcntly nourished in hot
weather, force the child to take more
food than it can assimilate or food that
is i'll adapted to hot weather feeding.
High temperature. with such i'm
proper feeding brings cholera infantum.
diarrhoea and commissions.
Mothers who feed their children on
lactated food and never fail to scald
all of baby's dishes, nor forget that
young children suffer from the heat far
more than grown people. will have the
comforting feeling of having done
everything possible for insuring baby's
health. growth and lasting happiness.
Lactated food is the happy achieve
ment of long desired substitute for
mothers milk. 1t is known to invari-
ably make firm flesh. clear skin,
bright eyes, and to strengthen the
child's body so that diarrhoea, cholera
infantum and exhausting summer
sickness do not gain a footing. Lac
tated food babies are rosy specimens of
genuine fun-loving. noisy children that
develop strong physiques, with large
bones and muscles
The same qualities that make lac
tated food so splendid diet for grow
ing children and for pale. weak. sickly
babies, make it invaluable in summer
emergencies for keeping up the
strength of little ones who show signs
of bowel looseness. Lactated food
feeds without irritating the already
disturbed digestive organs. No other
diet can be relied on to do this in
safety.
The only assured safety for pale.
weak, sickly babies in summer is for
mothers to stick close to diet of pure
lactated food. The danger of over
loading the tiny stomach and the con-
sequent diarrhoea-nature's way of
dealing with indigestion-is thus
avoided. Lactated food is the one per-
feet substitute for healthy mothers
milk. Specialists in children's dis
orders prescribe it: intelligent parents
everywhere recommend it, and babies
living on it show how perfectly it il
adapted to infant summer feeding by
their healthy condition, their plump.
happy faces and their bright eyes.
