It is a Joy and comfort to know
that those much-ta!ked-of pains
and other distresses that are said to
precede child-bearing may easily be
avoided. No woman need fear the
slightest discomfort If she will fortify

This la a moet grateful, cenetrat-
lng, external application that at onoe
softens and makes pliant the abdom

naturally expand without the slight
est strain, and thus not only banish
all tendency to nervous, twitching
spells, but there Is an entire freedom
from nausea, discomfort, sleepless
ness and dread that so often leave
their Impress upon the babe
The occasion is therefore one of un
bounded, joyful anticipation, and too
much stress can not be laid upon the
remarkable Influence which a moth
er’s happy, pre-natal disposition has
upon the health and fortunes of the
generation to come
