NFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of
all the children born, in civilized countries, twentytwo per* cent., or nearly
one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more
than one-third, before they are -five, and one-half before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma
jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these
infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures
and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it hears the signature of
Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and allays fever.
