It may for a while, but in time it lells. You who have found a home for the soul, to whom the Church in any of its earthly dwellings is so dear that you can echo at all the words of my text, be thankful. You have found no small thing.

The reason why Mrs. David Lee's physician prescribed Baby's Own. Tablets for her child was because he knew them to be per- fectly harmless; they are sold under a guarantee, backed by a Government Analyst's certificate. that they contain absolutely no opiate or narcotic and can be given with perfect safety even to the youngest infant.
Says Mrs. Lee' who resides at Lindsay, Ontario, Canada My little girl had a hard time getting her teeth. She was quite feverish, her tongue was coated, her breath offensive and she vomited milk. On the advice of our doctor I give her Baby's Own Tablets and she began improving at once. "She had not slept well at nights for three months, and I was almost worn out caring for her. Nothing did her any good until I gave her the Tablets. Now her food digests properly, her breath is sweet, her tongue clean and she is quiet and good. I can strongly recommend the Tablets to other mothers as they did my baby good when nothing else did."
