Anxious thoughts sometimes perplex
the wife who sees maternity before her.
If she is treading an untIied path, she
sometimes frets herself into a nervous
condition which is injurious and pros
trating. If motherhood has already been
a painful experience she is apt to shrink
from the coming trial and by her very
mental anxiety increase the. possibility
of her suffering.
There is no cause for anxiety for those
prospective mothers who use DIR. Pierce s
Favorite Prescription. 1t tranquili!es
the nerves, encourages the appetite, In
duces refreshing sleep and produces
mental cheerfulness as we'll as physical
vigor. 1t gives strength and muscular
elasticity so that the baby's advent is
practically painless. 1t is the best tonic
for nursing mothers.

NO TIME FOR CHARITY.

Mrs Russell Sage Says Fashionab'<
Women Are Too Busy.
Mrs. Russell Sage. wife of the New
York capitalist, says that fashionable
women have no time to devote TO char
liable work. and. provided they give
of their means TO worthy objects. they
should be excused from the active du-
ties of distributing benefactions. She
resents the assertion however, that So
ciety women are lacking in sympathy
for the distress of others and says that
rule they are not extravasant She
asserts that there are not twenty fam
lies in New York who spend more
than S200.0 a year and not fifty fam
lilies in the United States whose yearly
expenditure equals that amount. There
are a few who may exceed that amount.
DO you think Mrs. Sage, that a
New York society woman has much
time for anything but her social du-
ties?' was asked, rs it your opinion
that she can give part OF her time to
charity?"
Il think her social duties take UP
every minute of her time. She would
be the last woman I would approach
for assistance in active charitable
work. I have lived IN New York thir-
ty-eight years and in that time ] have
never received assistance from the
source you mention. ! do not mean to
say that they do not give generously
to many worthy causes. They simply
have not the time to do charitable
work and keep up their social obliga-
tons"
She spoke most beautifully of Helen
Gould and mentioned their joint in
terest in several charitable institutions
She also spoke of a prominent leader
of society who is known to all New
Workers who inherited an income OF
$500 600. Out of that she kept Up her
position as one of the first leaders OF
society and established a very worthy
mission school.

annual number was about 200, in 1884 ,
