/\A \ 'W wisp fl is very much like the blossom- / ing of a flower. Its beauty and perfection depends entirely upon the care bestowed upon its parent. Expectant mothers should have the tenderest care. They should be spared all worry and anxiety. They should eat plenty of good nourishing food and take gentle exercises. This will go a long way toward preserving their health and their beauty 1 as well as that of the little one to come. But to be absolutely sure of a short and painless labor they should use Mother’s Friend regularly during the months of gesta- ' tion. This is a simple liniment, which is to be applied externally. It gives strength and vigor to the muscles and prevents all of tne discomforts of pregnancy, which women used to think were absolutely necessary. When Mother’s Friend is used there is no danger whatever. Get Mother’s Friend at the drug store, 81 per bottle. THE BRADFIEED REGII ATOR CO. ATLANTA. GA.
