[SFant MORTALITY is something frightful.: We oan hardly realize that o° all the children born in civilized countries, twenty-two per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirty-seven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save many of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by tho use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and sooth- ing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium or morphine; They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons, In any quantity, they stupify, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death, There can be no danger in the use of Castoria if it bears the signature of Chas, H. Fletcher as it contains no opiates or narcotics of any kind. Children Cry For ASTORIA| Let’s Think It Over.
