a firm and rounded form, and that steady
easy poise of the whole body which be-
tokens strong limbs and healthy nerves.
1t was the Reporters business to be curl
Gus; moreover, she was woman; and re-
ceiving gracious permission to call on the
following day, she duly presented herself
armed with a hundred such questions as
only woman can ask.
eyes, have five children" :" said the
hostess, with tone of earnest happy pride;
"hope I'l1 have FIVE more. 1 love every
one of them. They are good children too,
and comfort to me all the time"
You can't understand it of course, and
my friends wonder that I keep my health
and strength and do my work; but that I
take care of myself is the reason. I never
used to be strong. I was thoughtless and
careless. After my first baby came was
all broken down and prayed that might
never have another, but 1 have learned
better and 1 am stronger now than ever
was in my life"
women break down because they go
without the little extra help they need to
tide them over hard places. When wom-
an expects to become a mother she ought
to be at her very best But that is exactly
the time when most women feel weak and
sick and ,vserable. They grow melan-
choly and anxious as the time approaches
and when it comes they have no strength
or stamina of body or mind to go through
the ordeal"
"No wonder they suffer and nearly die
sometimes, and are all broken down for
months or years. If they would take the
right care of themselves and strengthen
themselves in a natural way, they would
never suffer as they do; and instead of
dreading to have children they would well
come them as real blessing"
1t is simply case of stitch in time
saves nine or rather nine hundred. A lit
tie natural reinforcement at the time when
baby is expected will save months perhaps
years of suffering and weakness. At such
a time I always take DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription; it invariably gives me the ex-
ira strength and healthy nerve-power which
a woman needs to bring her baby into the
world safely and comfortably"
"It is the most wonderful thing IN the
world to build up a woman's nervous sys-
tenn and strengthen the special organism
of motherhood 1t gives you the recuper-
ative power that woman cannot get in
any other way. 1t carries you through the
nursing time beautifully; it helps you to
nourish the baby ano make him hearty and
strong too. My four younger children are
the sturdiest youngsters you ever saw. This
one grand Favorite Prescription has
made me the healthy, happy mother am: -
81 can tell you of dozen women who
have had almost the same experience as
mine. / saw letter written by Mrs. Jennie
]. Jackson, who lived at Fergussons Wharf,
in Isle of Wight Co., Va. These are her
own words: Z have enjoyed better health
since taking DR.. Pierce's medicine than
have since I have been married. 1 can
work hard all day and sleep well at night.
I was almost gone when wrote to Doctor
Pierce three years ago. I had uterine
trouble very badly, but, thank the Lord, !
am very well now. My doctor did not
have any faith in patent medicines but
he says, something has done you good.
1 tried many different medicines and got
no better until I tried DR.. Pierce's medi.
cines. The first bottle gave me ease.

scription and feel as we'll as ever in my
life, and can work hard all day and do as
much walking as ever did. l was nothing
but a skeleton. was SO thin in flesh thai
