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 are eating away its vitality. The surest remedy for worms is White’s Cream Vermi fuge. It is positive destruction to the worms but harmless to the child. Price 35c. Sold by Carswell Drug Co. Americus Drug Co. Office Hours—9-12 A.
