Physicians Recommend Castoria
IASTOEIA. has mot with pronounced favor on tho part of physicians, pharma-
couttyal Bociotics and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
rosults most gratifying. Tho extended uso of Oastoria is unquestionably tho
result of throo facts: rfnttlho indisputablo ovidonco that it is harmless:
Sooond That it not only allays stomach pains and quiots tho nerves, but assimi
lates tho food : Third It is an agrccablo and perfect substitute for Castor Oil
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotio
and does not stupofy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drop3, Godfrey's
Cordial, otc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how
ovor, is to oxposo danger and record tho means of advancing health, Tho day
for poisoning innocont ohildron through greed or ignoranco ought to end. To
our knowlodgo, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating tho syBtom not by stupefying it and our readers oro ontitled to

Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. D. llalztead Scott, of Chicago, lib? , aaya: "I have prescribed your
Castoria often for Infanta during my practice, and And It very satisfactory."
Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland. Ohio, aaya: "Tour Castoria stands
first In lta class. la my thirty years ot practico I caa say I never hava
found anything that so filled tho place."
Dr. J. II. Toft, of DrooUyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Castoria sad
found it an excellent remedy la ay household sad private practice for
many years. Tho formula Is excellent."
Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., cays: "I prescribe your Castoria
extensively, as I have never found anything- to equal It for children's
troubles. I am avrare that there aro Imltatlona'in the field, hut I always
aee that my patients get Fletcher's."
Dr.VTin. J.McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "Aa the father of thirteen
children I certainly know aomethlnc about your great medicine, and aside
from my own family experience I have In my years of practice found Cas
toria a popular and eDclent remedy in almost every home."
Dr. J. It. Clausen, of Philadelphia, ,Pa., says: "The namo that your Caa
torla has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the
presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorse
ment of the medical profession, but I, for oao, most heartily endorse H axd
bellore It aa excellent remedy."
Dr. R. H. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., aaya: "Physician geserally do set
prescribe proprietary preparations, but In the case of Castoria my experi
ence, like that of many other physicians, has taucht me to saake an ex
ception. I prescribe your Castoria la my practice because I have feud It
to be a thorouchly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physi
cian who has raised a family, as I hare, will Jda me la heartiest reeam

SKIN DISEASES
HUMORS IN THE BLOOD
When the blood is pure, fresh nnd healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth
and free from blemishes, but when some acid ltumor takes root in the circu
lation its presence is manifested by a skin eruption or disease. These
humors get into the blood, generally because of nn inactive or sluggish
condition ot the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and carry
off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter is left
to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid
poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through the
pores and glands of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis,
Salt Rheum and skin eruptions of various kinds, Eczema appears, usually
with a slight redness ot the skin followed by pustules from which there
flows n sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense.
It is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and legs, though other porta
of the body may lc niTcctcd. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks nnd bleeds;
the acid in tho blood dries up the nnturr.l oils ot the skin, which are intended
to keep it soft and pliant, causing n dry, feverish condition and giving it a
hard, leathery appearance. Acne makes its appearance ou the face in tha
