Children hate to take medicine
as a rule, but every child loves the
taste of C~astoria. And this pure
vegetable preparation is just as
good as it tastes; just as bland
and harmless as the recipe reads.
(The wrapper tells you just what
Castoria c~ontains.)
When Baby's cry warn OF collie,
a few drops of Castoria has him
soothed, asleep again in a jiffy.
Nothing is more valuable in diar-
rhea. When coated tongue or bad
breath tell of constipation, invoke
its gentle aid to cleanse and regu-
late a child's bowels. In colds or
children's diseases, use it to keep
the system from clogging. Your
doctor will tell you Castoria

This budget can be reduced con- siderably and still include the silk frock, If the material is bought and the garments made at home. silks, appropriate for this type Of dress. including China, Shantung. flat crepe and crepe de chine, range from Sl,G5 to ,S5 a yard.

 When an older child is to be taken on Sunday outing. 1t should be planned Tn such way as 10 avoid fatigue. An automobile ride should begin carly in the morning before the roads become congested.
 There should be plenty of time, allowed to be spent playing in thei quiet of the hills, by a lake or a not too crowded beach. The child should have his usual nap or rest in some quiet shady spot. Of course the most important fac tor in such a Sunday excursion IS the mental attitude Of the grown ups. A nervous mother who insists on driving from the back seat, q father who is curt and irritable under slight provocation, these will b. enough to send any child home in a state of nervous exhaustion no matter how sanely the day has been planned.
