TTpIlr, passage oi the Teeth through the gums produces troublesome aiiil d. ul cerous symptoms. It is known by moth ers that there is great irritation in the mouth and gums during this process. The pimis swell, the secretion of saliva is in creased, tiie child is seized with frequent and sudden fits of crying, wairhings start ing in the sleep, and spisms of peculiar parts, the child sduieks with extreme vio lence, and thrusts its fingers into its month. If these precursory symptoms are not spee dily alleviated, spasmodic convulsions uni versally supervene, and soon cause the dissolution of the infant. If mothers who Iiave their little hnhes afflicted with these distressing symptoms, would apply l)r William tlvans's Celebrated Soothing Syrup, which Ins preserved hundreds infants when thought .past recovery, dom heimr suddenly attacked with that fatal malady, convulsions. This infallible remedy lias preserved hundreds of Children, when thought past recovery, from convulsions. As soon as the Syrup is rubbed on the gnms, the child will recover. This preparation is so in nocent, so efficacious, and so pleasant, that no child will refuse lo let its gums be rubbed with it. When infants are at the age of four months, though there is no ap pearance of teeth, one bottle of tin Syrup should be ued on the gnms, to open the pores. Parents should never be without the Syrup in the nursery where there are young children; for il a child wakes in the night with pain in the gums, the Syrup immediatel y gives ease by open ing the pores and healing the gums; there by preventing Convulsions, Fevers. &c. To the Agent of Dr. Lvans bo-.toinu Svrup: Dear Sir The great benefit afforded to my suiTeritsg infant by om Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted and painful dentition, must convince every feeling parent how essential an early ap plication of such an invaluable medicine is to relieve infant misery and torture. .Mv infant, while teething, experienced stu b acute sufferings, that it was attacked with convulsions, and my wife and family sup posed that death would soon release the babe from anguish till we procured a bot tle of your Syrup; which as soon as ap plied to the gums a wonderful change was produced, and after a few applications the child displayed obvious relief, and by con tinuing in its use. I am glad to inform you, the child has completely recovered, and no recurrence of that awful complaint has since occurred; the teeth are emana ting daily and the child enjoys perfect health. I niveyou my cheerful permission to make this acknowledgment public, anil will gladly give any information on this circumstance. When children bpgin to be in pain with their teeth, shooting in their corns, put n little of the Syrup in a tea spoon, and witii fiuger let the child's gums be rubbed for two or three minutes, three times a day. It nist not be put to the breast immediately, for Ue "dlU would take the syrup off too soon. When the teeth are just coming through their gums, mothers should immediately apply the sy rup; it will prevent the children having o fever, and undergoing that painful opera tion of lancing the gums, which always nv-dies the tooth much harder to come through, and sometimes causes death.
