A Warning to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard
against bowel troubles. As a rule it ,s
only necessary to give the child . dose
of castor oil to correct any disorder of
the bowels. Do not use any substitute,
but give the old. fashioned castor oil,
and Gee that it is fresh, as rancid oil
nauseates and has a tendency to gripe.
II this does not check the bowels give
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoes Remedy and then . dose of
castor oil, aud the disease may be
checked 10 its incipiency and all dam
ger avoided. The castor oil and this
remedy should be procured at once and
kept ready for instant use a. soon az
the fret indication 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
oil dealers.

In the fourteenth century shaving
was popular with young men, while the
old men were attached 10 forked

assembly says, "A merchant was there
with "A forked beard" Boards were
worn in various shapes and forms dur

and Charles l.. as the poems, plays and

periods amply testify. In his "Anato-

his client whether he wished his beard
