SICKLY, PEEVISH CHILDREN
Children suffering from intestinal worms
are cross, restless and unhealthy. There
are other symptoms, however. If the
child is pale, has dark rings under the
eyes, bad breath and takes no interest in
play, it is almost a certainty that worms
arc eating away its vitality. The surest
remedy for worms is White’s Cream Vermi
j fuge. It is positive destruction to the
! worms but harmless to the child. Price

as winter approaches let us see to !t
that our homes and offices have the
proper ventilation and sunlight; both
are essential to proper health.
If a thing is vital we cannot live
without it. Therefore, if Georgia, ex
pects to live, she must have reliable
Vital Statistics.
Is it not better to know the fact
and set about correcting the evil than
to let preventable diseases continue
their death ravages?
Records of the causes of death it
our midst must be made if we expect
to safeguard the health of our dear
one*.
Records of births must be made it
we expect to guarantee to our chil
dren their legal rights.
I
Blindness in babies is preventable
in a large measure. The thing to do is
to put drops into the eyes at birth.
Do not neglect to give your baby
the protection against disease that
advanced science provides.
Ratify the vital statistics amend
ment of our Constitution at the polls
this fall.
