FOR
BABY'S
OWN
(TABLETS!
One of the reasons which makes Baby's Own Tablets a favourite with mothers is the fact that children like them, which eliminates the fuss and trouble so often associated with the administering of medicine to the young. Couple this with the knowledge that they are guaranteed pure and of proven efficacy, and you will appreciate why Baby's Own Tablets are used, in many homes to-day where there are children.
80
"Baby's Own" are easy to give, being readily crushed to a powder, They are equally good for the infant in arms as for older children; the tablet form ensures accuracy of dosage.
As a means of preventing or correc- ting the health troubles of the young, indigestion, "wind', simple fever, upset stomach, constipation, colic, colds,
croup, worms, there is nothing more rapidly beneficial. They are also a great aid at teething time. Baby's Own Tablets are sold by all chemists.
