The mere mention of worms makes one feel uncomfortable, frut their presence in the system must assuredly cause such torture and agony that there is little wonder at the irritable disposition which is so often developed not only in Children but frequently in adults. Worms require a specific medicine, and there is no better remedy than Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets, as used by Mrs Willmott, of Cooma,. N.S.W., wh« states: —"Hearing- about the wonderful success of your Worm Pellets, 1. decided to give them a trial. 1 gave my three children, Roy, Phillis, and Horace, a dose each, as they had all the symptoms of Worms. The pellets were taken at 6 o'clock in the mornins-, and at 10 o'clock Roy had passed a Stomach Worm about twelve inches in length, and the other children passed quite a number of Thread Worms. Since taking the pellets the children seem greatly relieved, and appear to be better in health. I shall always recommend them to my friends, and you may use this testimonial for publication in any way you please." ' COiSTOC/fj.
