Not sure this is the best category for this, but wanted to post it somewhere. It's an 'ad' from the Moline paper dated June 5, 1913:
MOST CHILDREN HAVE WORMS
Many mothers think their children are suffering from indigestion, headach, nervousness, weakness, costiveriess, when they are victims of that most common of all children's ailments---worms.  Peevish, ill-tempered, fretful children, who toss and grind their teeth, with bad breath and colicky pains, have all the symptoms of having worms, and should be given Kickapoo Worm Killer, a pleasant and lozenge, which expels worms, regulates the bowels, tones up the system, and makes children well and happy.  All druggists, or by mail.  Price 25c.  Kickapoo Indian Medicine Co., Philadelphia and St. Louis.

Maybe this was a predecessor to Injun Joe's Kickapoo Joy Juice from Lil Abner.
