KEEP LITTLE ONES
WELL IN WINTER.
Winter is a dangerous season for the
little ones. The days are so changeable'
--one bright; the next cold and stormy,
that the mother is afraid to take the
children out for the fresh air and
exercise they need so Much. In conse-
quence they are often cooped up in
overheated, badlyventilated rooms and
are soon seized with colds or grippe.
What is needed to keep the little ones
well is Baby's Own Tablets. They will
regulate the stomach and bowels and
drive out colds and by their use the
baby will be able to get over the winter
season in perfect safety. The Tablets
are sold by medicine dealers or by mail
