Preface
This little book is intended to render real service to young mothers in supplying common-sense in-formation on a most vitally important subject. In view of the fact that some three hundred thousand babies died in the United States last year before they reached their second birthday, largely on ac-count of lack of knowledge of proper feeding and hygienic care, together with the indiscriminate use of hurtful drugs, especially modern coal tar prod-ucts, it seems to me that any effort to spread rational knowledge on the essentials of care and feeding of young children, together with calling attention to the blessings of a scientific medicinal treatment as practiced by the homeopathic school of medicine, is to be welcomed.
The directions contained in this book are the results of the author's experience in treating children for the past thirty years, and while theories come and go, the practical things advocated here have stood the test of time and can be relied upon.
