Pain.

'If price can be placed on pain, Mothers
Friend is worth its weight in gold as an allevi
ator. My wife suffered more in ten minutes with
either of her other two children than she did al
four bottles of Mothers Friend 1t is blessing
to any one expecting to become mother" says
a customer.
Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist,
of Carmi, H., to the Brad6eld Regulator
Company, of Atlanta, Ca, the proprie-
tors and manufacturers of Mothers
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines adj
vertised to do unreasonable things, but q
scientifically prepared 1iniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The iniment may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of confinement. The earlier it
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
It not only shortens labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly dimin-
ishes the danger to life of both mother
and child, and leaves the mother in q con-
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.

Peouliarities of the Potato.

The opinion has prevailed among
housekeepers that it is the good potato
which breaks open when it is boiled.
A scientist who has made potatoes q
study insists that the good potato is the
one that remains quietly in. its coating
Of brown during all of the processes Of
cooking. Instead Of the swelling and
bursting Of the skin being caused by
the presence Of starch it has been as
certained that albumen is the substance
that causes this breaking open. An or
binary potato is made up of three
fourths of it's weight in water, two
tenths in starch and one fftieth of nj
|trogenous matter If it cracks and falls
TO pieces during the process of boiling.
1t is deficient in albumen, and therefore
lacking in the most important constit-
nent. New York Ledger.

A hard featured individual, who had
