CAUSE OF PAINFUL.
AND SLOW TEETH
ING BABIES

Baby usually cuts it's first teeth
soon after the fifth month. The time
varies in different families and may
be delayed by prolonged illness, but
slow Or painful dentition is generally
caused by improper feeding, which
produces indigestion, faulty elimina-
ton and undernourishment. This
lack of nourishment causes slow for
nation of the teeth, and naturally
much pain when they come through,
as in later months baby's gums are
harder.
If the baby is fretful, sleeps poor
ly, loses appetite and occasionally has
a slight fever during teething time,
indigestion is probably the cause, but
care must be taken not to use strong,
irritating drugs that cause infiamma-
ton of the delicate membrane of ba-
by's stomach.
One of the best laxatives for teeth
ing babies is ''Baby Ease" a perfect
ed preparation by baby specialist
that is easy-acting, non-irritating,
does not produce over-action, or
leave baby constipated. "Baby Ease"
is safe. harmless and efficient laxa-
tive and corrective. Use it and you
will see wonderful improvement in
your baby, if not, take him to a ply
sician. Ask your druggist for Baby
Ease"
