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 wurms, has endared is told in this statement made by Mrs U. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W. Her little boy, at the age of sixteen months, became very irritable and cross, and the doctor attributed tbe cause to stomach worms. Tbe child became so bad that on three or four occasions it went into convulsions ann almost choked, owing to tbe worms passing up to the throat. Various treatments were tried with practically no success, nntil Oomatock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets were used with the following marvellous results. These are Mrs Madden'sown words: — "Foi some bix mouths." writes Mrs (J. A. Madsen, of Knrrajong, N.S. W., "my little boy, now aged one year and ten months, has suffered fiom stomach worms, which the doctor attributed to the use of impure water. Until he was sixteen months old, he enjoyed very good health, bat subsequently he became very irritable and cross, and 1 .ter on he was examined by a doctor, who stated that the cause was stomach worms. Various treatments were tried, arid on one occasion a stomach worm was passed from the bowels. Tbe evacuations from thn bowels were always stained with blood, and the motions were quite unnatural. On three or four occasions tbe child was almost choked and went into convulsions, and almost black in tbe face, through the worms passing up the throat, and I had to force my finger down tho throat to remove the worm. Only last weefc I was strongly advised to try Oomstock'a "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets, and, having obtained a box, I gave the child a dose in accordance with tbe instructions, and the same evening five worms varying iv length, the longest fifteen inches, were expelled. (Jomfltock's "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets are a purely vegetable preparation for the eradication of worms in children and adults For sale by ail chemists and storekeepers, price 2s 9d per packet, or will be sent post paid at the same price by The W.
