Baby specialists agree nowadays, that during the first six months, babies, must have three ounces of fluid per pound of body weight daily. An eight pound baby, for instance, needs iwentyfour ounces of fluid. Later the rule is two ounces of fluid per pound of body weight. The amount of fluid absorbed by a breast fed baby is best determined by weighing him before and after feeding for the whole day; and it is easily calculated for the bottle fed one. Then make up any deficiency with water. Giving baby sufficient water often relieves his feverish, crying, upset and restless spells. If it doesn’t, give him a few drops of Fletcher’s Castoria. For these and other ills of babies and childreif such as colic, cholera, diarrhea, gas on stomach and bowels, constipation, sour stomach, loss ot sleep, underweight, etc., leading physicians say there’s nothing so effective. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper—and millions of mothers have depended on it in over thirty years of ever increasing use. It regulates baby’s bowels, makes him sleep and eat right, enables him to get full nourishment from his food, so he increases in weight as he should. With each package you get a book on Motherhood worth its weight in gold. Just a word of caution. Look for the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher on the package so you 11 be sure to get the genuine. The forty cont bottles contain thirty-five doses.—Advertisement.

Victor Advertising Is Truthful! It is exactness, fact, accuracy in description without exaggeration; it is precision, clearness and authenticity. There are so many really cheap lines of furniture that can be beautifully illustrated and described in glowing terms. Often this merchandise is not worth the money, nor is it the kind you want for your home. It is bait merchandise low priced, to influence your visit to the store. Once in the store, however, highpressure salesmanship induces you to purchase higher priced merchandise. It is a trick of merchandising that is morally unfair to the public. This is the way you can protect yourself: Go to the furniture store in your town that sells the merchandise they advertise, who gives satisfaction with a money-back guarantee. A store which does not claim the Truth as their policy but which follows the Principle of the Truth because they sincerely believe in the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth. i\ \ HTTf* r* The Victor is eonvcnf\lt M# ff .P, • iently located on 1 1 J * Washington St, Just lit hlocks west of Illinois St,
