A CHOKING CHILD.

CONVULSIONS AND BLACK IN THE FACE FROM STOMACH WORMS.

FIVE EXPELLED BY ONE DOSE. The terrible sufferings which a child afflicted with stomach worms lias endured is told in this statement made by Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W. Ker little boy, at the age of 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 f-ueeess, until Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pel let 3 were used with -the following marvellous results. These are Mrs Madden's own words:— " For some six months," writes Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W., "my little boy, new aged one vear and ten months, has suffered frcra 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 from 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 almost choked and went into convulsions, and almost black in the face, through the Wc-rm passing up the throat, and I had to force my finger down the throat to remove the Worm. Only week I was strongly advised to try Comstock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets, and having obtained a box J gave the child n- dose in accordance with the instructions, and the sainn evening five worms, varying in Irngth. the longest 15 inches, were exp<?!!rd." Comstock's " Dead Shot" Worm Pellets are a purely vegetable preparation for the eradication of Worms in children and adults.
