A GOOD MEDICINE
FOR THE BABY
Baby's Own Tablets is the one medi-
cine that can be given little ()nee with
the firm knowledge that nothing but
good will result. The tablets are sold
under the guarantee of a governritent an-
alyst to contain 'no opiate nor any ether
drug which will harm the youngest child
—they cannot possibly do harm; they
always do good, -.and once a mother has
used them she will never again give her
little one castor oil or the "soothing"
stuffs which simply drug baby into tem-
porary relief and in the end do harm.
Mr, Philias Parndia, Frampton._ Que.,
writeet "Send Inc two more boxes 01
Baby's Own Tablets. 1 have used them
for constipation and have always found
them very good. My. baby is certainly
progressing under the Tablets." The
Tablets are sold by medielee dealers or
by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr.

CARE FOR THE CHILDREN.
(Montreal Herald.)
The children of our city are a trust,
given to us by an Almighty Power for
'our own good and their own. Primarily
it is true, the trusteeship for each child
is reposed in the parents; and happy in-
deed is the child who has never to look
further. But the thousands and thou-
sands of Montreal children whose par-
ents are unworthy or incompetent have
no one to look to but us, the citizens of
their city, and their claim is absolute.
It were better to slay them as the Spar-
tan rulers did their weaklings than to
allow them to grow up to a destiny of
ill -health, moral perversity and intellec-
tual death. We are doing almost. as lit-
tle 813 we possibly ma for them now; let
us take up our duty and fulfil it pro-
perly.

THE HOUSE FLY OAMPAIGN,

If Otta.witne could have placed before
them in some unmistakable form the
mortality agues eaused by the house
fly alone, there is no doubt but that
every man end woman would join to the
utmost in the campaign initiated by 1114
Excellency Earl Grey for the purpose of
their suppression.
That this suppression Is possible, and
with co-operation, even easy, is Amu
by the example- of England, *Although
the British climate is more suitable for
the house .fly than the Canadian, they
are hardly enough of a nuisanee there to
c.a.use the necessity of using window
screens. This because the places where.
flies breed are easefully covered or disin-
feeted. ln this way Britain ie Sare4.

A general indiridual effort, coupled
with a closer eivie inspection of stables
and back yards, and with care in cover-
ing and haudling garbage, should reduce
the house fly pest to a minimum this
summer. But as the breeding thne is
here, the deerk must cominence immedi.
