Mothers who have young daughters of
school age should watch their health
more carefully than their studies. The
proper development Of their body is Of the
first Importance. After the confinement
of the school room, plenty of out-of-door
exercise should be taken. 1t is better
that their children never learn their a.

lose their health.
But all this is self-evident. Everyone adj
mits it-everyone knows 1t, but everyone
does not know how to build them UP when
once they are broken down. The follow

is OF books, although her progress in
this line has been considerably retarded
by the considerable amount Of sickness
she has experienced. She has missed two
years OF school on account of her bad
health, but now she will be able to pursue
her studies, since her health has been re-
stored.
Her father was talking Of her case to a
newspaper man one day recently. MY
daughter has had very serious time of

happy to know that she is getting along
all right and Is stronger than ever"

but without result"
There was an old family friend near
Milford who had a daughter afflicted the

time she had taken eight boxes of the
medicine she was entirely cured. She
took the last dose in April. and has not
been bothered since. She is now stronger
than ever, weighs ten pounds more than
ever before. and her cheeks are full of
