Spanish delegates however, still claim
that their acceptance of the principle of
inspection of the Franco Spanish police

Both sides now appear
less uncompromioing, 1t is the opinion
of influential delegates including the
Americans, and Italians that an agree

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change
few years of married life often make
in the appearance and disposition of
many women. The freshness, the
charm, the brilliance vanish like the
bloom from Q flower which is rudely
handled. The matron is only a dim
shadow, a faint echo of the charming
maiden. Few young women appreciate
the shock of the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which TOO often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understand
ing that this secret drain is robbing the
cheek of its freshness and the form of
its fairness.
As surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the health
OF the delicate womanly organs, so surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness.
More than a million women have found
health and happiness in the use of DR..
