YOUR baby?

Everybody loves a healthy, smiling baby. There is no reason why your baby should not be as attractive and lovable as the one in this picture. Health and happiness should be the birthright of every child but some parents unthinkingly neglect the simple ailments of childhood which may lead to more serious disorders. Castoria is made to correct colic, diarrhea, sour stomach, indigestion and constipation. Castoria tastes so good that your child will love to make it. Absolutely harmless, Castoria can be given gafely to the smallest baby. Inexpensive, too, a bottle of Castoria con- zains many doses. Use only Castoria, baby's own medicine, the next time your child is ill,
