FIVE STOMACH WORMS.
PASSED BY A CHILD ONE TEAR AND TEN MONTHS OLD. "For six months," states Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W., my little boy, now aged one year and ten months, has suffered from stomach worms, which the doctor attributed to the use of impure water. Until He was sixteen months old he enjoyed very good health, but subsequently he became very irritable and cross, and later on he was examined by a doctor, who stated that the cause was stomach worms. Various treatments were tried, and on one occasion a stomach worm was passed from tho bowels. The evacuations from the bowels were always stained with blood, and the motions were quite unnatural. On three or four occasions the child was almost choked, and w-jiit into convulsions and almost black in the face through the worms passing up to the throat, and I had to force my finger down the throat to remove the worm. "Only last week I was strongly advised 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 worms varying in length, the longest being 15 inches in length, were expelled." ! Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Peli lets are obtainable at all chemists and stores, or \vill be forwarded by post (postage paid) on receipt of remittance. Price, Is 6d per box (6 boxes 8s 6d). The W. H. Comstock Co., i Ltd., 58 Pitt Street, Sydney, N.S.W.
