Every mother must sooner or later ask
herself this question, and it is one which
must involve good deal OF anxious
consideration 1t may be that on the

Now, is it not reasonable to assume that
an infants food that has been In general
use for upwards of fifty years, and that
has been used, in preference to others, in
most of the Royal Nurseries OF Europe,
is likely to prove suitable diet for the
average infant Such food Is Savory

its favour may be congratulated on the
wisdom of their choice.

curacy and If it is found to really be
the highest in the country, the plan
