Poison Hemlook.

Water hemlock is a deadly plant
common in most country neighbor-
hoods. It's roots are eaten often in
spring by mistake for some edible root
and death frequently results. Cattle
are often poisoned by drinking water
in marshes where it grows. The poison
hemlock from which the Greeks made
poisons is a near relative to the water
hemlock. 1t stands from two to seven
feet high and has clusters Of small
white flowers and large, parsleylike
leaves. The stalk, being hollow, is of
ten made into whistles by country
boys, and many children are poisoned
in this fashion.

AS a child grows older 1t requires
more and more personal attention from
the mother, and as the functions of the
bowels are of the utmost importance to
health. great attention hsould be paid
to them.
Diet is Of great Importance, and the
mother should watch the effect Of GER

fruit like bananas constipating many.
It is also to be considered that the child

and one which every growing boy and
girl should be given often or occasion
ally, according to the individual circuIn-
stances, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin. This is a laxative and tonic COM
bined, so mild that it is given to little
babies, and yet equally effective in the

sign of a tendency to constipation give
a small dose Of Syrup Pepsin at night
on retiring, and prompt action will fol-
