VEAES 0f experience have enabled Mr. Fletcher to make Castoria a practically perfect preparation. These years of labor : the amount of money required to introduce its merits to the public : the investment in its manufacture, including the most modern machinery, mean a vast amount of invested capital. It follows that the greatest care is exercised in the selection of each ingredient, and the greatest attention is paid to every detail of its preparation. The result is the practically perfect preparation in the finished product j Fletcher's Castoria. Herein lies the guarantee of the absolute safety in the use of Fletcher's Castoria for the baby, and the warning against irresponsible makers of imitations and counterfeits. The signature of Chas.
