Sleeper?

Plenty of sleep is necessary to fensure a baby's healthy regular pro- | Kress, and should come without rocking. If for any reason there is sleeplessness, or disturbed sleep, the cause should be ascertained and cor- rected at once.

The

causes

of sleeplessness are many, some of the commoner being hunger, thirst, cold, over-heating, discomfort arising from tight cloth- ing, or slekness. If the latter, a dose of Baby's Own Tablets will generally prove all that is required to remove the source of the trouble, which most likely is some derangement of the digestive functions either in stomach or bowels.

The mlid laxative action of the tablets gently elennses the little one's intestines, and by so doing dispela constipation, correcta
