THE FIRST BABY.

The arrival of the first baby in the

wife. who is tobecome mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon her
breast and latterly she shall hear it lisp
the sweet and holy name, mother. y
But her happy anticipation quickly van
ishes when she realizes the terrible pain
and suffering through which she must
pass while bringing the little one into
the world. An indescribable fear of the
danger attendant upon tho ordeal soon
dissipates her joyfulness.
Thousands of women have learned
by experience that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferngs which at
tend childbirth; they know that by
the use of Mothers Friend''-a scien-
tific liniment--for few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
SO prepare themselves for the final
hour that the pain and suffering Of the
dreaded event are entirely obviated and
it is safely passed through with COM
paratively little discomfort.
