Watch Carefully
the Child's Diet
Start Them Off Right With
a Good Laxative and Then
Watch Their Food.
Mothers aTe often unconsciously
very careless about the diet of their
children, forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact Is that all foods do
not agree alike with different per
sons. Hence, avoid what seems to
constipate the child or to give It in
digestion, and urge it to take inoro of
what is quickly digested.
If the child shows' a tendency to
constipation It should immediately be
given a mild laxative to help the 1 ow
els. By thlß Is not meant a physic
or purgative, for these should never
be given to children, nor anything like
salts, pills, etc. What the child re
quires Is simply a small dose of the
gentlest of medicines, such as Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which, in the
opinion of thousands of watchful
nrfotherß, Is the Ideal remedy for any
child showing a tendency to conatl
putlon. So many things can happen
to a constipated child that care is
necessary. Colds, piles, headaches,
sleeplessness, and many other annoy
ances that children should not have
can usually be traoed to constipa
tion.
Many of America’s foremost fami
lies are never without Syrup Pepsin,
because one can never tell when some
member of the family may need It,
and all can use it. Thousands en
dorse it, among them Mrs. M. K. Pat
