Summer HintS 10
 Mothers Who Care
Seasonable Advice on the Health of Children in Hot
 Weather

It is well that mothers. be advised not to over-feed the children during the hot months. No one requires as much food in summer as in winter. Feed the children the lighter and more easily digested foods. See that the milk is cool and kept away from flies. Be careful that the fruit is ripe, and if the child begins to scratch the skin, indicating too much acid in the blood, deprive it of fruit for several days
 It is quite natural that under these conditions there will be some diges- tive disturbance, such as constipation, indigestion or summer diarrhoea. It may be accompanied by cold or by eruptions of the skin. The timely remedy, and one which you can rely on for results, is a. small dose of Dr. CaldwelIs Syrup Pepsip on retiring, and by morning the bowels will move and the trouble will vanish. The ex- ceptional tonic ingredients in this remedy will tone the stomach and en- rich the blood, and the child will feel it's usual self again.
