RISKS CHILDREN RUN

In The Far East.

In China and the tropical East babies and young children are subject to much greater health risks than are those who live in more temperate landa, for rea- sons associated with climatic conditions and environment. Every thoughtful; parent knows this, and should take pre-| cautions accordingly,

One of the best safeguards for the health of your little ones is to be found: In Baby's Own Tablets, a medicine especially prepared for the use of children, and guaranteed absolutely wholesome and safe for even the young- ost infant.

The first effect of Baby's Own Tablots is to gently move the bowels. Then they cool feverishness, relieve in digestion, colic, croup or colds, check diarrhoea, allay, teathing pains, spel worms, quiet the nerves, promote rés fol, health-giving sleep.
