DARTURITION WITHOUT PAIN.
EDITED BY M. l.. HOLBROOK, M. d.,
Editor of the Herald of Health.

NEW YORK: WOOD HoLBRook; Boston
A. WILLIAMS & Co.
This little book is most timely, for it supplies
in q concise and easily to be comprehended form
Just that information which every woman should
have, and will save untold suffering, not only at
childbirth but before. 1t has been most highly
commended by the press and by medical men.
DIR. bio Lewis, speaking of it, says II have
read it with care. 1t is unpretending solid, free
from kinks, fatherly, brotherly, and clothed with
language SO simple, dignified, and strong, that !
am sure it will secure a warm place among all
intelligent and earnest people,
Henry Ward Beecher's paper says: 1T is an
Interesting and plausible argument, and the
course recommended cannot fail TO be bene-
fetal"
The New York Null says: 1T is a work whose
excellence surpasses our power to commend 3
The New York Globe says: ut is one of the
most valuable additions to our stock of domestic
medical lore that has appeared for many years. "
1t shows women how they should live so rs to
avoid the pains and sufferings of child bearing.
No person who takes 1t up will put 1T down till
he has read it through. We may add that the
language is SO chaste and pure that it will de-
light the most fastidious, and we are glad to
know it is meeting a large sale, and that a house
of such high standing as that of A. Williams s
Co. of Boston, have taken the agency for the
New England States. The price, 81. is so low
that every one may have it. ~ no 20--f
