Cute in aßaby‘AwfulatThree -and it’s Dangerous' by Buth Brittain
Thumb sucking does look sweet in a baby, but it is disgusting in the three-year-old and sometimes it hangs on until fifteen or sixteen! The habit may cause an illformed mouth or induce adenoids; and it always interferes with digestion. Pinning the sleeve over the hand; attaching mittens, or putting on cardboard cuffs, which prevent bending the arms at the elbows, are some of the ways to stop the habit. Another bad habit—irregularity in bowel action—is responsible for weak bowels and constipation in babies. Give the tiny bowels an opportunity to act at regular periods each day. If they don’s act at first, a little Fletcher’s Castoria will soon regulate them. Every mother should keep a bottle of it handy to use in case of colic, cholera, diarrhoea, gas on stomach and bowels, constipation, loss of sleep, or when baby is cross and feverish. Its gentle influence over baby’s system enables him to get full nourishment from his food, helps him gain, strengthens his bowels. Castoria is purely vegetable and harmless—the recipe is on che wrapper. Physicians have prescribed it for over 30 years. With each package, you get a valuable book on Motherhood. Look for Chas. H. Fletchers’ signature on the wrapper so you’ll get the genuine.—Advertisement, , ,
