A Wonian Nearly Sirty Years Of Age becomes
a aMother for the first Time.
A case of maternity that occurred in thi,

Mrs. Alice W., residing in Seventh street,
below Mound, is over fifty-seven years of age
having been born in April, 1903. At the
age of twenty-s she was married, and since
that time her domestic peace has been unin-
terruptod by sickness ofany kind, and undis-
turbtd by the cares that invade families con-
tcmporancously with the advent of children.
Mr.. w. nearly five years the junior of his
wife, and has been during his life extremely
healthy, and is now quite as vigorous MS ma
ny who havE not yet reached the age Of five
and thirty.
Some months ago Mrs W., who was quite
slender, began graaually to increase in size,
and became so alarmed at the fact Physician
was consulted in regard to the matter.
The disease, for such it seemed, was wholly
beyond the reach of his knowledge although
he saw that its pathognomonic systoms, were
