A Valuable Little Book of Interest
to All Women Sent Free.

Every woman looks forward with feel
ings of indescribable JOY to the one mo-
mentous event of her life compared with
which all others pale into insignia-
cance. How proud and happy she will
be when her precious babe nestles on
her breast = how sweet the name of
"MotherW And yet her happy antici-
patton of this event is clouded with
misgivings of the pain and danger of
the ordeal, so that it is impossible to
avoid the feeling of constant dread
which creeps over her. The danger
and suffering attendant upon being a
mother can be entirely prevented, so
that the coming of the little stranger
need not be looked forward to with
fear and trembling, as is SO often the
case. Every woman who reads this
paper can obtain absolutely free val
liable and attractive little book enti-
tied Before Baby is Born" by sending
her name and address to the Bradfield
Regulator Co., Atlanta, Ga. This book
