the children do not cry for it, at least
they do not object to it, As matter Of
fact, l know one child that actually cries
for it, every time he sees the bottle.
Manalin is, of course. useful in all cases
where a laxative is needed. Biliousness
or constipation. Always at the beginning
of an acute disease a fun dose of Mama

the youngest baby and is perfectly effec-

which are similar in composition to the
fluid Manaln. In tablet form they are
more convenient for some people. be-
lieve them to be the best laxative tablet
in the market. They are certainly made
of the very best material and constitute
a safe. convenient and effective laxative.
Then there is the Lacupia, blood
remedy. This remedy ] regard as an
Alternative of 1rst-class quality in every
particular ii is strictly vegetable, free
from the usual mineral poisons that are
used in Alternative remedies. 1t is specifi-
cally blood medicine. Sores of all sorts,
blood contaminations of every kind, are
treated with Lacupia. II you have
running sore external or internal, your
blood is contaminated, by infection or
otherwise. Lacupia, taken according to
the directions on the bottle, is sure to
produce beneficial results. In most cases
it can be relied upon to entirely eradicate
the trouble. In any case where it seems
to fail letter to me will be given
prompt attention and I will endeavor to
discover why a complete cure has not
been experienced.
