No mother in this enlightened age
would give her baby something she
did not know was perfectly harmless,
especially when a few drops of plain
Castoria will right baby's stomach
and end almost any little Ill. Fretful-
ness and fever, too; it seems no time
until everything is serene.
That's the beauty Of Castoria; its
gentle influence seems just what is
needed. 1t does all that castor oil
might accomplish, without shock to
the system. Without the evil taste.
It's delicious! Being purely vegeta-
able, you can give it as often as
there's sign Of collie; constipation;
diarrhea; or need to aid sound, nat
ural sleep.
Just one warning: it is genuine
Fletcher's Castoria that physicians
recommend. Other preparations may
be just as free from all doubtful drugs,
but no child of this writer's is going
to test them! Besides, the book on
care and feeding of babies that comes
with Fletcher's Castoria is worth its
weight in gold.

act normally, of their own accord.
