HEALTHY
MOTHERS

Women who bear children and re-
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby's
coming. Unless the mother aids
nature in its prenatal work the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de-
rnands made upon it, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is so truly
help to nature as Mothers Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to use It. It relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the ligaments, makes plant and elas-
tic those fbres and muscles which
nature Is expanding, prevents numb
ness of limbs, and soothes the inham-
nation of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mothers
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mothers
Friend assures a speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and she is
