A CHOKING CHILD. CONVULSIONS AND BLACK IN THE PACE .b'ituM STOMACH WUKMb. FIVE EXPELLED BY ONE DDbii*. The terrible sufferings which a child affUcted with stomach worms, has endured is told in this statement made by Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong.N.S.W. Her little boy, at the age ot 16 months, became very irritable and cross, and the Doctor attributed the cause to stomach worms. The child became so bad that on three or four occasions it went into convulsions and almost choked owing to the worms passing up to the throat. Various treatments were tried with practically no success, until Comstock s "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets were used with the following marvellous results. These are Mrs Madden’s own words:— "For 50m6 six mouths,” writes Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W., "my little lioy, 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 16 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 froid the 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 almpst choked and went into convulsions, and almost black in the face, through the Worm passing up 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 bos I gave the child a dose in accordance with the instructions, and the same evening five worms varying in length, the longest 15 inches, were expelled.” Comstock’s "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets are a purely vegetable preparation for tho eradication of Worms iu children and adults. For sale by all chemists and storekeepers, price 2s 9d per packet, or will bo sent post paid at tho same price by Tho W. H. Comstock Co., Ltd., Parish street, Wellington.
