Mothers Friend

does expectant mothers so much
good is because il is an external liniment,
to be applied upon the outside, where
much OF the strain comes. II helps be-
cause the pores Of the skin readily absorb
il, and it comes into direct contact with
and is absorbed by the parts involved.
Morning sickness is quickly banished,
and nervousness Is kept completely away.
The sense OF dread and foreboding Is not
experienced, even during labor itself.
Confinement is short and almost without
pain. Recovery is quick and sure. Best
Of all, Mothers Friend benefits the
unborn just as much as the expectant
mother, and when the little one comes II
will be strong, lusty and healthy.
