A CHOKING CHILD.
CONVULSIONS AND BLACK IN THE FACE FROM STOMACH WORMS. FIVE EXPELLED BY ONE DOSE.
The terrible sufferings which a- child i afflicted with stomach worms, has en- ! dured is told in this- statement made by Airs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong. V N.S.W. Her little boy, at the age oi 16 months, became very irritable . and cross, and the doctor attributed the cause to stomach ■worms. The child becamo so bad that on threo 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 Cometock's '\DeauShot" Worm Pellets were used with the following marvellous results. These are Mrs Maddens own words:— 'Tor some sis months," writes Mrs C. A. Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W., •'mv little boy, now aged one year and ten months, has suffered irom Stomach Worms, which the doctor attributed to the use of impure water. Unti] he was 16 .months old ho enjoyed very good health, but subsequently he becamo very irritable and cress, and later on he was examined 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 con- I vulsions, and almost black in the face, ! through the Worm passing up th€ throat, and I had to force my finger down the throat to remove the Worm. Only last week I wae strongly advised to try Comstock'e "Dead Shot" Worm Pellets, and having obtained a box I gave the child a dose in accordance with the instructions, and the same I evening five worms varying in length, the longest 15 inches, were expelled " Comstock'e "Dead Shot f ' Worm Pellets are a purely vegetable preparation for the eradication of Worms in children and adults.
