such legislation before tho United

A Warming to Mothers,

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot wealth
er of the summer months to guard
against bowel troubles. AS rule il
is only necessary to give the child a
dose Of castor oil to correct any dis
order of the bowels. Do not use any
substitute, but give the old-fashioned
castor oil, and see that it is fresh. as
rancid oil nauseates and has ten.
dency to grippe. If this does not check
the bowels give Chamberlain's Coiic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
then a dose of Castor oil, and the
disease may be checked in it's incip
iency and all danger avoided. The
castor oil and this remedy should be
procured at once and kept ready for
instant use as soon as the first indl'
cation of any bowel trouble appears
This is the most successful treatment
known and may be relied upon with
implicit confidence even in cases OF
cholera infantum. For sale by all
druggists. Oh.
