Not being able to realize his own con- | dition, a child's bowels should be | constantly watched, and a gentle laxative given when necessary. Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are especially well adapted to women I and children. The Sisters of Christian Charity, 531 Charles St., Luzerne, Pa., who attend many cases of sickness say of them: "Some time ago we began using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and And that j we like them very much. Their action Is excellent and we are grateful for t having been made acquainted with 1 them. We have bad good results la every case and the Staters are very much pleased." The form and flavor of any medicine is very important, no matter who is to take it. The taste and appearance are especially important when children are concerned. All ! parents know how hard it is to give j the average child "medicine," even 1 though the taste is partially dis- . guised. In using Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets, however, this difficulty is overcome. The shape of I the tablets, their appearance and candy-like taste at once appeal to j any child, with the result that they 1 are taken without objection. The rich chocolate flavor and j absence of other taste, make Dr. | I Miles' Laxative Tablets the ideal I I remedy for children. 3 If the first box fails to benefit, the price is returned.
