J THE CAUSE OF HIGH MORTALITY INJ NFANTS j It is estimated that around 300(000 babies die annually in the United States, and that fully two-thirds of these deaths are caused from diarr ' hoeal diseases or complications. These disturbances in baby’s stomach and digestive organs are due mostly to improper feeding, which throws a poi son into the system. This poison un less eliminated, makes a mighty sick baby. When baby begins to fret, does not sleep well, suffers with constipation, diarrhoea, sour stomach and gas, or is sometimes feverish, this is a sure indication of indigestion, or improper assimilation and elimination, culmi nating in serious trouble unless cor rected with a good baby laxative. When baby is in this condition great care must be used not to givte it strong, irritating drugs that inflame the delicate membrane’s of baby’s stomach. “Baby Ease,” a perfected baby lax ative by a baby specialist, is consid ered the most efficient baby laxative and corrective. It is easy acting, non-irritating, does not produce over action or leave constipating after-ef fects. Your doctor will approve its use. Ask your druggist for “Baby Ease.” adv chairman of the state convention, was expected to speak from the floor against the resolution. He opposed it, not because of the indirect at tacks upon him, but because he cc.i sidered it unwise to drag factional fights in the senate, and increase animosity unnecessarily, he said. The senate will not meet again un til next Tuesday. Florence OIL COOK STOVES A. * I I' s ? > , L- 1: - _ | | !■ More Heat 11 Less Care THE Florence is neat, compact, and sturdy.
