A woman never really knows
the meaning of happiness and
content until she is the mother of
healthy, happy child. The
health of the child depends on
the health of the mother, both
before and after birth. Most all
of woman's weakness and partic-
ularly the weakness that most
strongly influences the health of
children, comes from some de-
rangement or disease of the dis
tinctly feminine organs. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription
will cure troubles of this nature.
1t should be taken regularly by
every woman during the entire
period of CESSATION. It gives
strength to all the organs in
volved, lessons the pain of child
birth and insures the health OF
both mother and child.

but when the Dog Began to Follow
Her She MenkeneL.

There is no earthly doubt as TO her
a new woman, neither was new woman
hood thrust upon her; she achieved it
and is unreasonalDly proud of the fact.
Nature cast her in round, soft, COM
Portable mold. But she has risen SUI
perior to nature. She believes with all
her heart, with all her soul, with all
her mind, in the right divine of woman
to govern, wrongly, perhaps, but still
to govern. She is one of those Patrick
Henrys in petticoats whose burning
%eloguence brings conviction to the souls
of hundreds who already agree with
her. AS already stated, there is no
earthly doubt as to her being a new
~wornan-in theory, at least, In prac-
tice? Well, that's different.
She's the sort of woman who shrinks
and climbs on the table if anyone sug-
gests that there is a mouse in the
room. She believes the placid old fam
lily horse the f~iercest sort of u steed,
and knows that her life is in danger
every time she climbs into the phaeton.
She stands paralyzed with terror II she
spies IA COW at the far end of the field,
and would probably faint II "A little
garden snake crossed her path. The
dogs Of the neighbors-sbe lives in the
country, where no household is COM

Her heart was as water and her
bones were as wax. She knew that ii
would be a heroic thing and worthy
OF her new womanhood to die in de.
Tense of her pies. She saw visions Of
the neighbors finding her a mangled
corpse, but still faithful to her charge;
of a slender white shaft In some peace
full cemetery bearing the inscription:
Faithful Unto Death" Then she
thought OF her motherless children, her
sorrowing husband, with only a heroic
memory to console them, and her our
age failed her. She felt that it was
better to live a new woman than to die
a hero.
SO she gently laid the pies down on
