open the doer for her, and Mrs. Winslow .will
prove tne Amenoaa Florence Migntmg&ie-- of tbe
Nursery.. Of this we are so 8ure,that we will
teach our "Susr" to say, -'At blessing on Mrs.
Winslow" for kelplng her to survive and escape
the griping, colicting, and teething siege. ,Mbs.
WiN8ix)w'8 SooraDra Stbthp relieves the child
from pain, ancUoores dysentery and diarrhoea. It
softens the gams,rednces inflammation,cnreawtnd
eolio, and carries the infant safely through the
teething period. It performs precisely what It
roiesses 10 penorm, every pan or n nothing
388. We have never seen Mrs. Winslow know
her only through the preparation of her "Soothing;
eyrap iot vnuaren leeming." jx we naa tne
power we would make her, as she is, a physical
saviour to the Infant race. Sold by all druggists.
