INFANT WELFARE

Sir.-In view of the present revival in child welfare propaganda I should lite to comment on nn aspect that seems to have heen hut little considered as v«. We have the Society the Promotion of Health of Women and Children, the Plunkct. nurses, the St. Helens hospitals (with their free advico to expectant mothers), tho district midwiyes of tko Health Department, maternity clinics connected with various hospitals, recciviiiK homes, orphanages, and such like. Tho point is that theso organisation say more or less iu effect: "Wo are hero to do so and so, and do it free, coino and consult us." Any new orgau.Batiou should bo for tho people who do not seek, hut must be sought. Wo want an aggressive body of tactful and broadminded workers, who will go amongst those in need of aid or advice, who will bo armed with sufficient authority to insist on ouch nid and ndvico being accepted whero necessary, and so by a system of moral and humanitarian influence briiiu light into darkened lives. Bring them to a point where they can be trusted to do justice to their children, but always bo mindful to watch for a fall. Go to tho people who do not attend "enthusiastic public meetings of tho society"—they don't knowprove soniethiuK to them. Swk and y» shall find.—l am, etc., ONCE AN INFANT. recovering" SLOWLY. A PAINFUL PROCESS. Somo people, when tUicy catch a chill or a tearing and irritating cough, allow themselves to suffer unnecessary pain, satisfied to be "recovering 610w1y." How much moro common 6onso is shown by those who always keep a bottle of Tuesioura handy. '"Tussicnra" soothes the throat and nnsal passages from tho first dose. It clears tho Tiead and brings relief to tho lungs. Tot "Tussicnra" is about the only well-known commodity that has not increased in price. Bottles ivro still Is. 2d. and 2s. Gd. at all chemists and stores.—Advt.

That feverish feeling from cold in tho head instantly relieved by "NAZOL. Splendid for clearing blocked passages in nope and throat.—Advt. Excellent ns a fcod tonic, wonderful as a nerve-soother and health-giver is SlUIi LAND'S JJEKF, IKON AND. WINE. Try it.-Adyt, '
