It is well that mothers be advised not to over-feed the children during the hot months. No one requires as much food in summer as in winter. Feed the children the lighter and more easily digested foods. See that the milk is cool and kept away from files. = Be careful that the fruit is ripe, and if the child Dbegins to scrateh the skin, indi ing too much acld in the blood, deprive it of fruit for several days. It is quite natural that under these conditions there will be some diges- tive disturbance, such as constipation, indigestion or summer diarrhoea. It may be accompanied by a cold or by eruptions of the skin. The timely remedy, and one which vou can rely on for results, is a small dose of Dr. Caldwell’'s Syrup Pepsin on retiring, and by morning the bowels will move and the trouble will vanish. The ex- ceptional tonic ingredients in this remedy will tone the stomach and en- rich the blood, and the child will feel its usual self again.
