Save, the Babies;
INFANT MOETAIITY Is something frightful We can hardly realize that of all
the children born in civilized countries, twenty-two per cent, or nearly one-quarter,
die before they reach one year; thirty-seven per cent, or more than one-third, before'
they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! ,'
We do not hesitate toaythat rtimeryiise of Castorirwotdi save many of
these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile
deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and sooth
ing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium or morphine.
They are1, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons.ln any quantity, they stupify,
retard circulation mand lead to congestions, sickness, death. There can be no danger
in the use of Castoria if it bears the signature of Ghas. E Fletcher as it contains no
opiates or narcotics of any kind.

Lett Think It Over.
There it such a thing at laying too much on anj rabject, and
the "grand-atand" talker sooner or later becomes a bore. The truth'
is always welcomed, and the truth reiterated and confirmed is more
than welcome it reaches your innermost soul.
Fletcher's Castoria is all its advertising has claimed for it.
Scrutinized by the microscope of public opinion and used for over thirty:
years it stands without a peer in the hearts of thoughtful, cautious,,
discerning Mothers. And once used, mother love there is no substitute!
far mother love will scorn to try a "substitute" or a "just-as-good".
Masquerading under many names drugs that are injurious to the
tender babe have found their way into some households, but the light or
experience soon casts them out Are they cast out before it ia too late?

Mingled with the som

men have thrown them
selves at death, with
gladness upon their lips;
and other men with
heavy hearts have hid
