in a contrary and complex manner in
this day and generation, compared with
the simpler methods in vogue in our
younger days. Matters have come to

Joyful Anticipation
of Motherhood
There is apt to be a latent apprehension

by the advice of so many women to uso
“Mothers Friend.” This is an external

muscles and to thus so relieve the pres
sure reacting on the nerves, that the
natural strain upon the cords and liga
ments is not accompanied by those severe
pains said to cause nausea, morning sick
ness and many local distresses. This
splendid embrocation i3 known to a multi
tude of mothers.
Many people believe that those remedies
which have stooditho test of time, that
have been put tojevery trial under the
varying conditions of age. weight, general
health, etc., may be safely rolled upon.
And judging by the fact that “Mother's
Friend" has been In continual uso since
our grandmother’s earlier years and is
known throughout the Vnlted States It
may easily Inferred that it is some
thing that women talk about and gladly
recommend to prospective mothers.
"Mother's Friend*' is prepared only In
our own laboratory and is sold by drug
gists everywhere. Ask for a bottle to-day
and write for a special hook for expectant
