Infant Care

Mothers, you can't start too early to establish a child's serene and tranquil disposition. Even an infant can have a happy. fretless state of uninterrupted health. What will help do this? A simple, purely vegetable product as old as you are: plain Castoria.
 A few drops of Castoria will settle all uneasiness in jiffy. Will dispel collie or ward off constipation; and just as surely check diarrhea.
 In real sickness call a physician. But many physicians urge only Cas- toria for those little childish disor- ders that need nothing more. You need never be afraid to give pure Castoria. II Is safe and perfectly harmless, for it contains no paregor- ic. no opiates. no dope of any kind. At least, this Is true of the genuine Fletcher's Castoria that Is the kind doctors tell you always to buy.
 Fletcher's Castoria Is fine for any child. All children love to take it.
