.* AN AMERICAN MOTHER'S HAPPY EXPERIENCE WITH BABY'S OWN TABLETS,

Found Them Helpful In Teething.

"Baby's Own Tablets are a fine medicine for children," says Mrs. Alice Lombende, of No. 18, Ply- mouth place, Holyoke, Mass. "My experience has been that the use of the Tablets 'quiets the fever caused by teething and gives the baby restful sleep.. Baby's Own Tablets are an excellent laxativa and I shall always have them In the house."

Mothers should' never give their children opiates to produce sleep except on the instructions of the family physicien.
