Guard Your Children

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not

dition, a chiId's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
DR.. Miles Laxative Tablets are
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, 53I Charles ST.,
Luzerne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in

The form and flavor of any medi
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised. In using Dr.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.
