"Rapidity of motion, and frequency

Castoria is a comfort when Baby Is

one is at ease. If restless, few drops
soon bring contentment. No harm done,
for Castoria is a baby remedy, meant
for babies. Perfectly safe to give the
youngest infant; you have the doctors
word for that! 1t is a vegetable pro-
duct and you could use it every day.
But it's in an emergency that Castoria
means most. Some night when consti-
patton must be relieved-or collie pains
or other suffering. Never be without
it; some mothers keep an extra bottle,
unopened, to make sure there will al
