the Health Of Children.
Adenoids are curious little caulifiow-
sx-like growths which appear at the
junction Of the nasal cavity and the
pharynx They are often observed a.
birth, but they seldom cause aiscom
fort until some months later. Then
they interfere with respiration and
cause the baby to be restless. It tOsses
IN its sleep and wakens suddenly, cry
ing out as If in distress.
If adenoids are permitted to remain
they deform the mouth. teeth, throat,
chest and face. At their worst they
produce pop eyes and what is called q
frog face. They cause mouth breath
ing, with al its attendant evils. They
open the way for a hundred and one
