Dorft Make aloy Out of Baby" -Babies Have "Nerves' By RUTH BRITTAIN

Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of animated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, crying or sleeplessness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can’t see what is making baby restless or upset, better give him a few drops of pure, harmless Castoria. It’s amazing to see how quickly it calms baby’s nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading physicians prescribe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other “upsets” of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows it overwhelming popularity. With 'each bottle of Castona, you get a book on Motherhood, worth its weigh in gold. Look for Chas H. Fletcher’s signature on the package so you’ll get genuine Castoria. TherJ are many imitations. Advertisement.
