Surely marriage Is a failure when its essential purpose, the raising of a family of children, proves impossible. in the childless home the married pair, though sometimes more or less unconscious of the fact, grow disappointed and lonely. Lacking the best tie to hold them together they are likely to drift apart, hence many separations and divorces. It' every wife, whose physical state prevents motherhood would but try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, there would be far fewer childless homes.- Advt. I
