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 Write for our free f* Fldlll book for expect- ant mothers which contains much ' valuable information, and many sug gestions of a helpful nature. | BRADFIELD REGULATOR CO., Allots, Gs.
