STOMACH WORMS.
A MENACE TO CHILDREN. Stomach Worms are undoubtedly the most invidious kind of all. They inhabit the stomach and inflict great havoc upon their victim. They deprive the victim of half the nutriment he consumes and when the stomach is empty gnaw the sides of the stomach, causing such terrible sensations as to often cause faintness. Aperient medicines have no effect upon them, for when any purgative is taken they fasten themselves to the walls of the stomach by a groove running down their side. The best method of dislodging Stomach i Worms is to starve the system and take : Comstock's " Dead Shot " Worm Pellets. The worms are weakened by the want of food, and are induced to take whatever is taken into the stomach. Comstock's "De'ad Shot" Worm Pellets contain the properties which sicken, and disable the worms, anS a dose of Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills will clear them out of the system. The wife of a well-known Waitara, N.Z., storekeeper, writes:—"Last week we received the packet of Comstock's ' Dead Shot' Worm Pellets, and I am glad to say that they have proved wonderfully effective. My little boy, aged five, for whom we procured the pellets, after one dose expelled a stomach worm measuring inches in length." i Comstock's " Dead Shot' Worm Pellets are purely vegetable medicinal preparation for the eradication of Worms in children and adults. For sale by all chemists and storekeepers, price 2s 9d per packet, or will be sent post paid at the same price by The W. H. Comstock Co., ' Ltd.. Farish street, Wellington, N.Z.—l CAdvtJ |
