In this age of terrible disasters, some .people are beginning to doubt that there is a Santa Claus. This is bad. For when Santa Claus is lost, everything is lost. And as long as we believe In Santa, there is still hope. The feeling in the air that is commonly known as the Christmas spirit is the breath of civilization and Christianity. We want you to know, we believe in Santa Claus.

Peaceful sleep for baby!
Only when his delicate little digestive system is in perfect order can baby enjoy sleep right through the night. A dose of Woodward's Gripe Water after the last meal removes the causʊ of- restless nights by checking fermentation and ensuring complete digestion of milk and other foods.
Woodward's contains no opiates, and is always quite safe to give.
