MANY THINK! when the Creator said to woman. “In sorrow shalt thou bring forth children,” that a curse was pronounced against the human race, but the joy felt by every Mother when she first presses to her heart her babe, proves the contrary’. Danger and suffering lurk in the pathway of the Expectant Mother, and should be avoided, that she may* reach the hour when the hope of her heart is to be realized, in full vigor and strength. MOTHER’S FRIEND Bso relaxes the system and assists Nature, that the necessary change takes place without N au - sea, Headache, Nervous or Gloomy Foreboding of danger, and the trying hour is robbed of its pain and suffering, as so many happy mothers have experienced. Nothing but ••Mother's Friend" does this. Don't be deceived or persuaded to use anything else. •‘Mother's Fnend” is the sreatest remedy ever trat on the market, and ail ourra«tomers prar-r >t ggh..
