IT found your medi-
cine a blessing to me
and my family"

There are women who feel something
like gridge against the children, who,
one after another rob their mother of her
beauty and strength. Men do not usually
realize how much the mother gives to
each child to her own loss. Women
accept il as part of the obligation OF
Nature and pay the debt grudgingly.
Yet in Natures plan every child is a
new Joy and fresh happiness. 1t isn't
the children that steal the mothers
strength. 1t is the unnatural drains and
pains which weaken her.
Every woman who has used DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription has found i'll it the
one thing woman has waited for. 1t
stops the drains, heals inflammation and
liberation, makes the baby's advent
pleasure and his life a blessing. No
opiates or narcotics are contained IN

was first advised by our family physician
in Charleston to use TEETHINA with our baby
when she was but very young infant, as pre-
ventive Of collie and to warm and sweeten the
stomach. Later it was useful in teething trou-
bles, and its effect has been found to be 50 very
beneficial and so free from the dangers that
are consequent upon the use Of drugs and
soothing syrups, that we have come to regard
IL, after use with three children, as one Of the
necessities when there is a new baby in the
house and until the teethipg troubles are over.
and we take pleasure in recommending il 70
our friends instead Of the horrid stuff that 50
many people use to keep their babies quiet.

The close was quiet and steady, with
prices points lower on September, but
2@4 points higher on other options.
