Decatur Democrat, Volume 44, Number 29, Decatur, Adams County, 27 September 1900 — Page 8

A Word to Doctors We have the highest regard for the medical profession. Our preparations are not sold for the purpose of antagonizing them, but rather as an aid. We lay it down as an established truth that internal remedies are positively injurious to expectant mothers. The distress and discomforts experienced during the months preceding childbirth can be alleviated only by external treatment—by applying a liniment that softens and relaxes the over-strained muscles. We make and sell such a liniment, combining the ingredients in a manner hitherto unknown, and call it Mother's Friend We know that in thousands of cases it has proved more than a blessing to expectant mothers. It overcomes morning sickness. It relieves the sense of tightness. Headaches cease, and danger from Swollen, Hard and Rising Breasts is avoided. Labor itself is shortened and shorn of most of the pain. We know that many doctors recommend it, and we know that multitudes of women go to the drug stores and buy it because they are sure their physicians have no objections. We ask a trial—just a fair test. There is no possible chance of injury being the result, because Mother’s Friend is scientifically compounded. It is sold at f; a bottle. and should be used during most of the period of gestation, although great relief is experienced if used only a short time before childbirth. Send for our illustrated book about Mother’s Friend. THE BRADFIELD REGULATOR CO. ATLANTA, OA. Berne. The Evangelical church is ready for the frescoer. Mrs. Carrier and family moved to Briant Monday.

They simply vote the republican ticket because they know no better. The republican imperialists do not quote Washington, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay. Daniel Webster, Thomas Corwin or Abraham Lincoln in favor of expansion. Another McKinley man from Geneva. says all the republicans are Christian people. Let them look at the matter right and they will find if such would be the case, that there would not lie enough of them to form the president’s cabinet. Senator Mark Hanna, the Ohio bull, is sick over the political affairs of New York, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. In his speech recently made at Chicago, he said that something has to be done- things look serious. The above states are doubtful. Those who attended the funeral of Mrs. Catherine J.

A certain reppublican quoted that everything remains to lie done by the republicans. We will just change that and say some things remain to be undone, or done by the unrighteous class of people such as the unmerciful man slaughter, the supporting and forming of all trusts and combines and the tariff laws, and all such acts that kill the farmer.
