The children, God bless them, are the buds
and flowers of our homes. Without their
prattle and hearty laughter, our homes would
be desolate. They should ever be carefully
tended in childhood and youth, II we expect
them to npen into perfect men and women.
In the home and at school, the children
have their times OF i'll health and suffering.
We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and witch
ings OF limbs and muscles. They complain OF
headache, drowsness, WEAKNESS, dyspepsA,
and indigestion. All such symptoms and -
ments mean that the seeds OF disease will n. re
a fast and firm hold, unless proper measures
are taken to restore perfect condition OF
health.
Thousands Of wise and prudent parents have,
made their children happy, healthy, and vigor-
