Madden, of Kurrajong, N.S.W., "my little boy, now aged one year and ten months, has •uifferea trom Stonu.jh Wiorms, which /he doctor attributed to :Ao use of impure water. Until he was 1G 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 troatmcnfcs were tried, and on one occasion a Stomach Worm was passed from the bowels. The evacuations from tho bowels irero always stained with blood and tho motions wero quite unnatural. On three or four occasions tho child was almost choked and went into convulsions, And almost black- in the face, through ahe Worm passing up the throat, and I had to force my finger down tho throat to remove the Worm.
