The little ones are apt to take cold, no matter how carefully a mother may try to prevent it. While colds may affect children in different ways, the 11min symptoms usually are that the child grows cross, the skin hot, the appetite fickle and the child quite feverish. Unless some- thing is done at once to relieve, " simple cold, the result is often very t4erioutg--tiso serlous that many a child’s life has been lost. There is no remedy that can equal Baby'e Own Tablets in cases of this kind. These tablets promptly break up colds and carry off the poisonous matter that has been retained in the system. By doing that they reduce the fever; the pulse become: normal; the appetite is restored, and the child is tupyirt_wtll and happy.

In the Province ot Olitsrio. where "atiat4tm ot deaths from all di-te, are carefully kept, it is shown that 2,286 ot the deaths oe- ourring during the year 1901 were due to consumption. or about 40 per cent. more than the number ot deaths occurring from all other con- tagious diseases combined. These lig- ures are startling and show the ur- gent necessity tor taking every available means tor combuttlug a disease that yearly claims, so many victims. The time to oure consump- tion is not after the lungs are hope- lessly involved and the doctors have given up hope. Taken in its early stages. consumption is curable. Con- sumption is u. wasting disease of the lungs and at the earliest symp- tom of lung trouble steps should be taken to arrest the waste and thus stop the disease. Con- sumption pregs upon weakness. Strength is the best measure of safety. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the best tonic and strength builder known to medical science. The record of this medieine speaks for itself and proves conclusively that taken when the symptoms of consumption de- velop they build up, strengthen and invigorute the patient to a. point where disease disappears. In proof ot this take the case of Ildege St. George. of St. Jerome, Que., who says: How the Bavages of the ' Scourge May be Stayed HOPE FOR CiMlMTlllEt “Abuut a year ago Int-came greatly run down.

I remained there for some time, but did not improve, and returned home feeling that I had not mach longer to live. I then decided to use Dr. Willie mi Pink Pills. After using sev- eral bottles my appetite began to return, and this seemed to mark the change which brought about my re- covery. tor with the Improved up- petite cume gradual but surely in- creasing strength.
