Unless you have put your child on
safe diet of lactated food or have it at
hand to be used at once on the first in
dication of looseness or loss of strength,
the door is wide open for fatal summer
diseases> that carry off one-fifth of all the
babies before they are year old.
The slight attack of diarrhoea that
child fed on lactated food rapidly over
comes, prostrates the infant who has not
been keeping up its strength because the
neat has robbed him of all appetite for
ordinary food.
More persons will dIeaduring the coming
Two months than at any other time of
And the greatest proportion Of these
deaths says the New York Press, will
strike down children under FIVE years,
ana from six to eight out of every ten
will be traced by the board of health to
the Ignorance or carelessness of mothers,
who will mourn the loss of their children
as sincerely and deeply as any mother
The greatest source of mortality this
month and next will be intestinal dis
eases, due to improper food which sows
the seeds of diarrhoea and cholera Hot,

Boards of health, physicians and moth
srs agree that there are but two ways
by which babies lives may be absolutely
insured against cholera infantum and the
wasting disorders of hot weather One is
nealthy, abundant mothers milk and the
otner is lactated food. In thousands of
homes where love and watchfulness seem
10 nave surrounded baby with every
safeguard, the two conditions that lead
70 cholera infantum often exist-an I'M
tagion in food.
There is no reason today why young
chlldren should not receive perfect nour-
ishment and be kept absolutely free from
any possibility of contagion. Iactafed
food is always -Obtainable and children
OF every. age take it eagerly and retain
II on their stomachs. Physicians and
nurses who have watched the growth of
large families of children know how
nutritious, how easily digested and how
absolutely at sonisy pure lactated food is, and how
not take other nourishment
Mothers who have no settled plan for
feeding their children, but drift along
INTO hot weather, giving them all sorts
get through the summer, have every
reason TO dread the hot weather and the
cholera infantum which is now raging in
every city in the country.
Mothers who have had large experience
with sick children emphasize the fact
that houses where lactated food is used
cant manner.
Lactated food is prepared with the true
sclentlhc knowledge that nothing better
can be done than to follow nature as
young children. Lactated food is most
like mothers milk Pure milk sugar is
the basis, because it is also the basis Of
mothers milk; there is added the richest
gluten flour of wheat and oats These are
SUBJECTED to high steam heat, and while
IN constant motion and perfectly cooked
the finest malt barley is added TINS
making partially digested food that il
easily assimilated by the feebIest
stomach. 1t has protected thousands az
little ones from summer ailments and
saved their lives, as it did in the case
