Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble
Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. 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. Ask your
druggist. A box of 25 doses costs j
only 25 cents. Never sold in bulk.
