Palo , Poor , Puny , and Pallid.
Considering all the ills thatnttarts
little children , it is a wonder that any
of the poor little youngsters live to
grow up.
There arc children who arc truly
objects of pity. They seem almost
bloodless. Their checks arc thin and
pinched ; their eyes arc hollow ; and
their skin is tightly drawn over their
foreheads There is nothing hearty
about them. They do not enjoy
their lives. They arc suflermg from
the debility that leads to marasmus.
Poor things I
Do a good deed for the pale , poor ,
puny , pallid child. Hand its mother
a bottle of roam's fron flitters.
Here is life even for the most deli
cate , the most debilitated ; for the
child almost given up for dead. Iron
in the blood is what the child needs ,
to bring it up. The little digestive
apparatus will recover. The pale
checks will fill out. The weary
groan of the child will be exchanged
for tlie merry prattle of infantile glad
ness. Your druggist will tell you
what wonders Brotafs Iron Bitters
has done for very sick children , ll
