It is used by physi- cians with results meost gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts: Férst—The indisputable evidence that it is harmless: Second—That & not only allays stomach pains and qulets the nerves, but assimilates the food: Third—Itis an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil tain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic and does not stupefy. s.,'::qm:m Inutfi; AVegetable Pmparu— similating the Food andReg uila- Bowels of Rocspe o Ol Dr SANTELBTTERG v Sasd~ 2 AfLH mos }yDoses - 17 ¢ n e s The Kind You Have Always Bought and which has been in use fer over 30 years, has borne the signa- ture of Chas.

Y., says: ‘I have used your Cas- toria for several years in my practice and have found # a safe and reliable remedy.” Dr. Raymond M. Evarts, of Santa Ypex, Cal., says : ‘‘ After using your Castoria for ehildren for years it annoys me greatly to have an ignosent druggiet substitute some- thing else, especially to the pa- tient's disadvantage, as in this case. 1 enclese herewith the wrapper of the imitation.” Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says : “ Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepa- rations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me o make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice be- ocsuse I have found it to be a thor- oughly reliable remedy for chil- dren’s complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recom- mendation of Castoria.” Dr. W. F. Wallace, of Bradford, N. H., says: ‘I use your Castoria in my praetice, and in my family.” Dr. Wm. L. MoCann of Omaha, Neb., says : ‘ As the father of thir- #een children I cemainly know something about your great medi- cine and aside from my own family emperience, I have, in my years of practice, found Casteria 2 popular and efficient remedy in almost every home.” Dr. Howard James, of New York, City,says: ““ It is with great pleas- ure that I desive to testify to the medicinal virtwe of your Castoria. I have wsed it with maried benefit in the case of my own daughter, and have obtained excellent results from its administration to other children im my practice.” Dr. J. R.-Clausen, of Philadel- phia, Pa., says : ‘‘ The name that your Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy.” unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman’s Drops, God frey’s Cordial, etc. good deal for a Medical Journal to say.

To our knowl- edge, Castoria is a remedy which produces regulating the system—not by stupefying it—aiud our readers are entitled to the information.—Hall's Journal of Health. Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chica- go, IIL, says : ““1 have prescribed your Castoria often for i ;ants during my practice and find it very satisfactory.” Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land, Chio, says : “ Your Castoria stands fost in its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything thatso filled the place.” Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says : I prescribe your Cas- toria extensively as I have mever found anything to equal it for chil- dren’s trowsles. I am aware that there aze imitations in the fleld, but I alwaye see that my patients get Fletcher’s.” Dr. Channiag H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo., says: “I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoreughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is & great comsideration in view of the fact that most medi- ocines of this character are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything that T ever preseribed.” | This is a «« omposure and health, by Letters from Prominent Physicians Addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher. Dr. L. O.
