SPRINGTIME
BY D. G. Allen
Spring comes laughing, tripping
lightly,
Der the SHOWS Of yesterday,
Taking from US thoughts Of sorrow,
Strewing flowers in our way.
Through the winter earth was dreary
Beauty hidden, loses worth,
Now the world is all a-blooming,
Joyous time for this old earth.
In our minds let new thoughts enter,
Cast out all that's worthless there
In our hearts and lives it's springtime
Joy we'll keep if We but share.

Baby's Growth

As baby's growth. development and
health all depend upon the feeding
the best of care should be used in
supplying the proper food and see
ing that both milk and bottles are
properly sterilized.
Even with the best Of care baby is
sometimes going to be upset and will
require a little "physic" But re-
member, baby's little stomach is ten
der and delicate and should not be
given strong and irritating drugs that
cause bowel Inflammation and chronic
constipation.
In England, senna is the favorite
laxative for children and, realizing
that senna is the safest and most eff
clent catharthic, an American baby
specialist has compounded this in
gredient with carminatives and pro-
duced an ideal baby laxative that is
easy-acting, non-irritating, does not
produce over-action nor leave the
baby constipated. This preparation
is known as "Baby Ease" and is rec
commended for all bowel complaints
of babies and children, constipation,
diarrhoea, sour stomach, gas and dur
ing the teething period. Ask your
druggist about "Baby Ease" it is a
safe, harmless and efficient laxative
and corrective. If baby does not i'm
prove after few doses, take him to
a physician. adv
