an organism untitled for the trial of
strength, and when the strain is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Follow
ing right upon this comes the nervous
strain of caring for the child, and q
distinct change in tho mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of chill
dren, and indeed childbirth under right
conditions need be no hazard to health
or beauty. The uneXplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting
from an unprepared condition, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
1t isn't as though the experience
came upon them unaWares. They have
ample time in which to prepare, but
they, for the most part, trust to chance
and pay the penalty.
In many homes once childless there
are now children because of the fact
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound makes women normal,
healthy, and strong.
Any woman who would like
special advice in regard to this
matter is cordially invited to
write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass. Her letter will be held in
strict confidence

WOMAN'S GREAT
CRIME AGAINST
HER SISTERS
CRY Dorothy DiE.l


A man correspondent propounds this
riddle:
why is it that although the aver
age young woman is very anxious to
become a wife and mother, when she
marries and has sons of her own, she
makes no effort to teach him to look
upon marriage as a duty?'
Why Because the average woman
is just a plain, ordinary, selfish human
being, and not pin-feather altruist.
Every mother of a son goes through
two Gethsemanes-once when she
brings man child into the world, and
again when she sees him married. This
is beyond all reason. 1t is just part Of
the mother nature.
A woman knows that her son should
marry, that it is part of the scheme OF
nature that he should marry and found
a home and family of his own. She al
so knows that it is best for him to
marry, that he is likely to be a better
man, to be healthier, happier and
more prosperous if he does marry.
Nevertheless, in her secret soul, she
hopes and prays that he won't marry,
and that she will never have to go
through the agony of seeing him love
some other woman better than he does
her. This is the secret of the strife
between mothers-in-law and daugh-
ters-in-law, They are hereditary fees
before ever the daughter-in-law IS
born.

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh Of
the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in

ness, or die kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by proper treatment Of the kid

hold urine and scalding pain in passing it,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to 60 often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
