Until he was J sixteen months old he enjoyed very good f health, but subsequently he became very i! irritable and cross, and later on 'he was c examined by a doctor who stated that !" the cause was Stomach Worms. Various s treatments were tried,.and on one occar sion a Stomach Worm was passed from ■• the bowels. The evacuations from the £ bowels were always stained with blood, ,'. and the motions were quite unnatural, l> On three or four occasions.the child was '' almost choked and went into convulsions ;. and almost black in the face through the d Worms passing up to the throat, and I T had to force my finger down the throat U to remove the Worm, a . "Only last week I was strongly advised s to try Comstock's 'Dead Shot' Worm '~ Pellets, and having obtained a box I gave the child a dose in accordance with the instructions, and' the same evening five 1 worms varying in length, the longest be-, ing 15 inches in length, were expelled."^," ■ Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets > are obtainable from' all chemists and ' stores, or will be forwarded by post (postage paid) on receipt of remittance.
