They claim to have captured some hills at the point of the bayonet and have taken, at the same time, prisoners, tanks and guns.

They get Castoria for a laxative. And they love it! It is the only laxative they take willingly.

Castoria tastes good, but more important it is malo for delicately balanced young systems. It nover causes griping pains and contains no strong, irritating drugs such as many adult tara- tives contain. Its action is gentlo but very thorough.

Got a bottle of Castoria today. You'll learn to depend on it as do 5,000,000 other mothers.
