A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children; it ruins a child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostratiOn, ner-
vous dependency, " the blues" sleep
lessness. and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, SO that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound !;
pain in the abdominal region, and
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in a shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostratiop.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prOstra-
ton than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
tab& compound; thousands and thou
sands of women can testify to this fact.

Dr.. Norton Hook, physician and vet
erinarian, formerly a member of the
Columbus board Of health, says: Zone
reason for the low death rate among
baby animals, as compared to human
babies, is the fact that the animal
mother has nothing else to do than
be a mother. She has no special en-
gagements, no tea fights on hand, and
she does not have to 60 out working
by the day to support drunken hus-
band.

The first newspaper advertisement
appeared in Great Britain in 1912. In

DiScOuraGeO.

The Puritan rejected the church or
gan as an instrument savoring of pop
cry, and a precentor set the music for
the service. Hymn-books being scarce
in the early New England days, hymns
were read line by line by this official,
and the congregation sang each line as
it was read. The effect was one of
mOurnful mOnotOny and horrible dron-
Ing. That the precentor had troubles
of mis- own is revealed in the quaint
records Of Judge Sewall
Without the aid Of notes or instru-
ment to guide and steady, the congre-
CATION would often get off one tune
and sing another. The judge, who was
a precentOr of long and worthy stand
ing, makes these entries in his diary:
