If the child is pale, has dark rings under the eyes, baa breath and takes no interest in play, it is almost a certainty that worms are eating away its vitality.

One day Iwas over to my neighbor’s house and she told me I ought to take Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound. So I went to the store | -.i iijp*- i and got a bottle, and took the first dose before supper. I have been tak ing it ever since, and you can hardly believe how different I feel. I had just wanted to fie in bed all the time, and when 1 Started to brush up I would give out in about ten minutes. So you know how badly I felt. I used to go to bed at eight and get up at seven, still tired. Now I can work all day and stay up until eleven, and feel all right all the time. My housework is all I do in summer, but in winter I work in a factory. 1 have told a good many of my friends, and I have had three come to me and tell me they wouldn’t do without the Vegetable Compound. ’’—Mrs. Saiiuei, Murphy, 21!)
