mates were made, physicians from 9th

avail. After making a trip through
southern California and Arizona, Miss
Linn was brought back to Salem and

YOUR CHILD'S HEALTH
YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

II you have children, naturally
your first thoughts are for their
health. You certainly want them to
develop strong healthy constitutions
The most careful attention must be
given when children show the first
symptoms OF the many common all
ments. Perhaps they are weakly and
thin, or grow too fast, thus sacrific-
ing strength. These and other ap-
parently minor ailments may be the
forerunner to weak constitution for
life.
Such children need Jayne's Tonic
vermifuge which is essentially a
chlldren's tonic. First OF all, 1t will
properly care for the child's stom-
ach. It will also improve the appe-
lite, and will add strength to the
other organs OF the body. In cases
Of thin or impure blood, 1t increases
the number OF red corpuscles enab-
ling the enriched blood to keep the
body healthy and strong.
Among the most common ailments
that children develop is that Of a
disordered stomach, leading TO an
impaired digestion. In many cases
this trouble Is due 10 parasites, in
the intestinal tract, To correct such
trouble, Jaynes Tonic vermifuge is
unsurpassed.
For more than so years millions Of
children have been restored to health
through the use OF this tonic, In.
