The most alarming condition con-
fronting the American people today is
our infantile death race. Statistics COM
piled from reports of the U S. Govern
ment and the State Board of Health OF
our largest populated states, show that
about 81 per cent of our deaths are
among children under years of age
and 80 per cent under years of age.
Of this 80 percent two-thirds or 67 per
cent die from Diarrhoae and Enteritis.
This means that in state like Arkan-
sas with an annual death rate OF 80, 600,
10. 500 are children under 2 years and
7, 900 of these die every year with Bac-
terial Infection of the Stomach and
Bowels, ordinarily termed Bowel
Trouble, Diarrhoae, Cholera lnfantum,
Summer Complaint, Teething Troubles,
etc. Statistics also show that no other
disease produces half as many deaths
among people of all ages as does this
one disease of Bowel Trouble
among children under years.
Appalling as these figures are, how
little concern is generally shown in the
preparation of Foods and Remedies in
an effort to avoid this greatest of all
death dealing monsters.
To lessen this great mortality among
children should be the aim of both our
national and state government and the
effort of every citizen. With this object
in view, arrangements have been per-
fected whereby Is, 600 Arkansas babies,
regardless of S * and color, are wanted
during the present summer. 1909 to
make a personal test of Baby Bowel
Germicide that is claimed by the discoy-
erers and manufacturers to produce
cures in 90 per cent of the cases indl-
eating its use. The name of this Germl-
eide is Brooks Baby Bowel Balm. :"
the constituents of which are given as
Laxative, Sedative, Digestive, Neutra-
hzing, Aromatic and highly Antiseptic.

out the state may each have access to
at least one bottle, every Drug Dealer
! in the state has been notified to lay IN
an amount to supply the demand, and
most of them have done 50, but II the
