Making History.

INFANT MORTALITY in past ages has been something fightful, something
: almost beyond belief and even today it occupies the time and the mind of
leading physicians in all countries. The death rate among infants is being grad
ualy reduced through new methods of hygiene, new representatives. and new RENE
dies for infants. This reduction in the death rate has NOT been accomplished by
adapting the precautions taken and remedies used by adults. Rather has it been
to keep clear Of the old methods, and choose after long research the precautions
and remedies specifically applicable to infants.
This being so, is it necessary for us to caution mothers against trying to
give her baby relief with a remedy that she would use for herself? Will she
remember that Eletchers Casmia is strictly a remedy for infants and children ?
