Days of Prosaic courtship.

In Shakespeares England courtship
was not the prolonged and romantic
affair it is now. The young folks did
not make and unmake engagements
as they pleased without consulting
their parents. The etiquette of be-
trothal was almost as formal and as
rigid as that OF marriage is today 1t
consisted of three observances-the
joining of hands, kiss and inter-
change of rings, all in the presence of
witnesses and usually in church. The
man had to promise under oath to
take this woman whose name is
n. to wife within forty days. 1t is
needless to say that under such cir
es-engagements never last
ing as much as six weeks, partners
usually chosen by their parents, mar
riages at age of IA and honeymoon
trips unknown-there was much less
opportunity than there is now for the
development OF romantic love.

A prospective mother cannot begin
too early to look after her own health
and physical condition. This is sure
to be reflected in the baby. Any weak

vigor on the mothers part should be
overcome early during the expectant

Prescription, which promotes the per-
feet health and strength of the organ
ism specially concerned in motherhood.
1t makes the coming OF baby abso-

cheerful, and transmits healthy constr
