WOMEN IN TBOUBLE. The Approach of Motherhood is the Occasion of Much An-riaty to AIL Every woman dreads the ordeal through which she must pass in becoming a mother. »The pain and suffering which is in store for her is a source of constant anxiety, fear and dread, to say nothing of the danger which the coming incident entails. The joyous anticipations with which she looks forward to baby's coming gives way to an indescribable dread of the ordeal when Bhe fully realizes the critical and trying event which will soon approach and have to he endured. 9 * Women should hail with delight a remedy which insures to them immunity from the pain, suffering and danger incidental to child-bearing. Buch a remedy is now offered, and women need n<: fear longer the childbirth. ‘‘Mother’s Friend”—is a acientific liniment—and if used before confinement, gently and surely prepares the body for the great requirements and changes it is undergoing, insures safety to Doth mother and cnild, and takes her through the event with comparative ease and comfort. This wonderful remedy is praised, by every woman who has used it. • What woman is not interested in “Mother’s Friend?” This wonderful remedy has been tested and its priceless value proven by the experience of thousands of happy mothers who have used it during the most critical period of woman’s life—the approach and culmination of motherhood. It has won their everlasting praise, for it gave them help and nope in their most trying hour and when most needed. Every woman may some day need “Mothers Friend.” The little book, ‘‘Before Baby is Born.” telling all about it, and when it should be used.

Hines of Manchester. la., writing of his almost miraculous escape from death, says: “Exposure after measles induced serious lung trouble, which ended in consumption. I had frequent hemorrhages and coughed night and day. All doctors sa;d I must soon die. Then I began to use Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, which completely cured me. I would not be without it even if it cost $5 a bottle. Hundreds have used it on my recommendation and all say it never fails to euro throat, chest and lung troubles.” Regular. size 50c and SI.

A woman in Idaho got a divorce from her husband because he would not take her to the Paris Exposition. I He testified in court that he was afraid of water and that he was afraid to get I into a bath tub even, he got so seai sick. That man has*indigestion just as a good many others we know and . should take Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup gt it at Smit Falk’s. • j Ralph Gregory, the Muncie lawyer, I has advanced the theory that Neely, ; his illustrious fellow townsman, is a .kleptomaniac. A kleptomaniac - . ’ rho steals what he doesn’t need. Neely s mania was for Uncle Sam’s money, and he needed it in his business. He didn't steal any redhot stores—just money. Neely is a thief —not a kleptomaniac. Ralph Las an other guess. Hartford City Telegram. Starvation never cured dyspepsia. I Persons with indigestion are already half starved.
