HealthyA
Women who bear children and re
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby's
coming. Unless the mother aids
nature In its pre-natal work the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de
mands made upon It, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic i
ailments. No remedy Is so truly a
help to nature as Mother's Friend,
and no expectant mother should fall !
to use it. It relieves the pain and |
discomfort caused by the strain on i
the ligaments, makes pliant and elas
tic those fibres and muscles which
nature Is expanding, prevents numb- |
ness of limbs, and soothes the Inflam- I
mation of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mother’s
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis ■
may not be safely met. Mother's :
Friend assures a speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and she Is
left a healthy woman to enjoy the
rearing of her
child Mother’s
Friend is sold at
drug stores. 17-.Smw.--jB
