The most alarming condition con fronting the American people today is our infantile death rate. Statls- tics compiled from reports of the U. s. Government and the State Board of Heath of our largest populated states. show that abort 37 per cent of our deaths are among children under years of age and 90 per cent under ? years of age. Of this 90 per | cent two-thirds or 6I per cent, die from diarrhoea and enteritis. This means that in a state like Arkansas with an annual death rate of o,00O, 10,500 are children under years and 1000 of these die every year with Bacterial Infection of the Stomach and Bowels, ordinarily termed Bowel Trouble, Diarrhoea, CholeraInfan- tum, Summer Complaint, Teetthing l Troubles, etc. Statistics also show that no other disease produces half as many deaths among our people of all ages as does this one disease of "Bowel Trouble" among children ua
 der years.
 Appalling as these figures are, how
 little concern is generally shown in the preparation of Foods and Reme- dies in an effort to avoid this great est of all death dealing monsters.
 To lessen this great mortality
 among children should be the aim of both our national and state gov ernment and the effort of every citi- gen. With this object in view, ar whereby 25,000 Arkansas babies, re- gardless of sex and color, are wanted during the present summer 1909, to make personal test of a Baby Bowel Germicide, that is claimed by the dis coverers and manufacturers to pro- duce cures in 90 per cent of the cases indicating it's use. The name of this Germicide is Brooks Baby Bowel Balm," the constituents of which are given as Laxative Sedative, Diges- tive, Neutralizing, Aromatic and high ly Antiseptic.
 In order that 25,O00 babies through 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 de-
 mand, and most of them have done so, but if the druggist or dealer called upon has not the remedy in
 stock and will not at once obtain it,
 the name and address of such dealer
 should be furnished to the manu- lecturers who will at once arrange for one or more bottles to be had at some convenient place, otherwise they will send it from the factory by express prepaid upon receipt of price for two bottles, 25c each. In this event the express charges alone will equal or exceed the price received but it is intended that every child in Arkansas to the number of 25,- GOO who have not tried it shall give it test regardless of cost.
 Each druggist or dealer selling the remedy is notified to refund the pur- chase money without question to all patients, physicians or attendants of the child using it and who are not satisfied with results. To all who are satisfied with results and will write to the manufacturers giving their opinion of the remedy and the results obtained from the trial, the manufacturers, to show a due appre- citation will at once mail such party, free full size 25c box of either Brooks Medicated Bears-Foot Oil or Brooks Little Liver-Root Pills, as requested.
