The young mother thinks, when she has
completed the baby garments that are to
clothe the little form. But she is not all
ready for baby's coming, unless she has
done something more for the baby than
merely to prepare his clothes Many a
young mother who goes through hours
Of pain and suffering wonders why it was
not possible to prepare in some way for
the bsby's advent, and to avoid the
agony that seemed almost unendurable.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the
one medicine for women which prepares
them perfectly, both for the burdens and
pleasures of maternity. It prevents the
morning sickness from which so many
women suffer. 1t strengthens the whole
body, so that there 10 no nervousness nor
anxiety. 1t promotes healthy appetite
and causes refreshing sleep. 1t gives the
mother strength for her trial and makes
the baby's advent practically painless.
Healthy mothers have healthy children,
and 1t is the general testimony of those
who have used DIR. Pierce's Pavorite
Prescription as a preparative for mother
hood, that the children were healthier
and happier than those born after
months Of mental misery and physical
anguish on the part of the prospective
mother.

Mazatlan, Mexico. Jan. 2.-There is

turned with increased strength. The
people are fleeing from the city at the
rate Of 300 per day and some 5000
persons have gone already.
1t is remarkable fact that more
than so per cent Of the persons at
tackled are women.
The report of the recrudescence OF

COAL FAMINE TERRITORY BROAD
Virginia and West Virginia Fuel
of All Kinds is Short

Baltimore, Jan. 1.-The 100000
persons of Maryland, the District of
Columbia, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia are feeling the effects of the
coal famine. Few towns are supplied
with anthracite, and in many there is
a shortage of all kinds of fuel In the
smaller towns the residents substi-
tute wood for coal. but in the larger
places this has not been possible. In
some entire counties nothing but wood
is used. At some points near the coal
fields, such as Roanoke, coal is higher
than at points more distant from the
mines. In West Virginia owing to the
wide distribution of coal-producing
areas, there is not likely to be much
distress. Although the industries are
suffering Washington and Baltimore
are getting along with soft coal at
advanced prices. The commerce of
both Baltimore and Norfolk is suffer
ing because of shortage.
