The Latest Thing for Children.

The days of castor oil, senas, salts and other unpleasant purgatives, which are so harah in their effect on a child's delicate internal membranes, are past. In millions of homes, Baby's Own Tablets are now relied upon for keeping the little ones free from constipation and its ill-effects.

Baby's Own Tablets are rapidly and yet gently effec- tive for atomach and bowel troubles, for simple fever, colds and croup, and for bables' teething troubles.

Always keep them in the home.
