Can motherhood be crime under any circun-

the thousand mothers living In daily suffering; by
misery, motherhood can be crime against Nature
Nature never permits ignorance of her laws to
excuse guilt or mitigate punishment. The father
eats sour grapes and "te childrens teeth set
edge" The mother enters maternal duties she is
unfit to discharge and is punished in her suffer
ing and the weakness of her child. The greatest
endowment any mother give her child is sound
healthy body. Every mother owes her child that
body. 1t is bitter thing for the tender mother
heart to feel responsibility for the shipwreck of
childs life, too weak to do battle with the gales
which sweep across life's sea. The mother cannot
give the child what she herself does not possess.
The first step toward happy motherhood is health.

do these testimonials of weak women made

to some women we'll nigh miraculous, that after
years of suffering, and the failure of all medi-

feet and permanent cure in "Favorite Prescrip

wonder would be if "Favorite Prescription"
failed to cure. 1t Is made to cure as sewing

THE BLACK MANS APPEAL


a Day OF Prayer TO the Rulcr OF the
Universe.
New York, May 4.-The National
Afro-American Council of the United
States has issued proclamation call
ing upon the colored people of this
country to set apart Friday, June 2,
IS a day of fasting and prayer. and has
called upon all colored ministers to de-
vote the sunrise hour of the following
Sunday, June 4, to special exercises
in order that Cod the father of mer-
cies, may take our deplorable case in
his own hands and that II vengeance
is to be meted out let God himself re-
pay" The proclamation says in part
1--WE pay out millions of dollars
yearly to ride in Jim Crow cars,
some of them scarCly fit for cattle,
yet we are compelled to pay as much
as those who have every accommoda-
tion and convenience. Indians, China
men and every other race can travel
as they please. Such unjust laws make
the railroads highway robbers In
some sections we may ride for thou
sands of miles and are denied a cup of
tea or coffee because no provision is
made or allowed to be made to ac-
commodate us with something to eat.
while we are ready to pay for it. We
are practically outlawed by many
states and also by the general gov
ernment in its Endorsement of silence
and indifference.
I'VE are dragged before the courts
by thousands and sentenced to every
form of punishment. and even exc
cuted without the privilege of having
a jury composed in whole or in part
of members of our own race.
I'm many sections we are arrested
and lodged in jails on the most friv-
olous suspicion of being the perpetra-
tors of most hideous and revolving
crimes. Mobs are formed of ignorant,
vicious, whisky besotted men, at whose
approach the keys of these jails and
prisons are surrendered and the sus-
picioned party is ruthlessly forced
