A most prevalent complaint in ohildron and -adults. It is not alone the irritation and annoyance caused by these parasitical animals that infest the stomaclftynd bowels, but the more serious consequences which will follow that must -fee kept in view. From the highly orgariised-and sensitive parts which they occjUpy, worms give rise to great constitutional derangements, ' and produce a variety of symptoms, more particularly affecting the stomach and the head. Worms, by their movements, and the interruption they offer to the contents of the bowels, generally .occasion paio or uneasiness in the abikmicny sometimes spasmodic, sometimes gnawing orbiting, and not infrequently l Of_a..v a fiuc, »ndc-' scribable character, arid yet very distressing. Sympathetic with this is a sensation »f itching aCJhe anus and at the nostrils, producing^! disposition to scratch the fundamertc and pick the nose, which is characteristic of this affection. The bowcri are often dis- 1 ordered, sometimes constipated or stopped, and sometimes}" relaxed, with occasional bloody discharges, as in dysentery. The discharge is sometimes in shreds or flakes, which are not unfrcqucntly mistaken fott fragments of partially-digested worms. It is not uncommon for portions of -undigested food to pass with the dischaf^cs. The appetite is exceedingly variable ; in some cases natural, in others deficient, craving or depraved ; one -condition not infrequently alternating with another. vThe abdomen is often hard, swollen, and tympanctic, the bneath' heavy or fetid, and the tongue furred, with a disagreeable taste, and a copious flow of saliva, swelling of the upper lift, bleeding of the nostrils, and, disposition to grind the teeth during sleep, and other character- • istic symptoms. The effects, however, often extend beyond the alimentary canal, and various derangements of health arc experienced in consequence, either of the direct irritation of the worms or of the disordered digestion which they occasion. Among the most common of these arc nervous affections, such as fretfulncss, irritation of temper, wakefulness, or disposition to^ excessive sleep, disturbed sleep, sudden starting out of GlceD-as if from fright, dizziness, spasmodic movement of the cvclids, dilated pupils, perverted vision, "temporary blindness, and general deafness. General convulsions are not infrequent in children, and symptoms strongly resembling water in the head have .been ascribed to worms, and have ceased on their expulsion. ' . - . Cases of St. Vitus' dance, melancholia, and nervous diseases, a v nd even insanity ,- have been referred, with the most apparent reason, to the' same cause. In addition to these affections may be mentioned obsci»-ate cougli, spasms of the glottis, palpitation, languid circulation, pale or yellowish skin, sunken eyes, a livid circle about the eyelids, and general emaciation. This condition is often accompanied by fever, and is then called •worm fever. Persons in apparently perfect health may be afflicted with worms, and the only symptoms may be periods of irritableness, or a constant desire for something to "cat, which may last for months until the system breaks down*, and the worms- manifest their presence in some other manner. Cornstock's " Dead Shot " Worm Pellets are a sure death to worms in children and adults. Comstock's "Dead ."Shot" Worm Pellets are a purely vegetable preparation compounded on a scientific principle for the eradication of wotjhs. which infest the intestines. Theyjcontain specific j properties which destroy the worm, but \ cause no injury to thestijmach or bowels, and do not weaken the^, system. The J pellets are prepared in the form of a | confection or lolly, have no disagreeable | taste or smell, but, on the contrary, inspire children to take them as they would an ordinary lozenge.
