1t is the duty of every expectant
mother to prepare her system for the
coming of her little one; to avoid as
far as possible the suffering of such
occasions, and endeavor to pass
through the crisis with her health
and strength unimpaired. This she
may do through the use of Mother S
Friend, a remedy that has been SO
long in use, and accomplished so
much good, that it is. in no sense an
experiment, but preparation which
always produces the best results. 1t
is for exernal application and so pen
Grating in its nature as to thoroughly
lubricate every muscle, nerve and ten
don involved during the period before
baby comes. 1t aids nature by ex-
banding the skin and tissues, relieves
tenderness and soreness, and perfectly
prepares the system for natural and
safe motherhood. Mothers Friend
has been used and endorsed by thou
sands of mothers, and its use will
prove a comfort and a benefit to any
woman in need of such remedy.

FORBID MARRIAGE
OF COLON Ell AST0R

NEW K.-Special.-The chorus
IF protest arising from all sections OF
the country against the proposed mar
riage Of Colonel j. J. Aston and Miss
Madeline Force has been swelled by
the voices of four more bishops Of
the Episcopal Church. These declare
that they will not permit any clergy
man in their diocese to solemnize the
union of the middle-aged multi-mil-
lionaire with the beautiful eighteen
yeaT-Old girl.
Six Episcopal bishops in all have
so far declared against the marriage,
while hundreds Of clergymen and
prominent laymen OF all denOmina-
tons are ranging themselves against
the match daily.
An international aspect was given
20 the controversy when the steamer
Carmania arrived today.
Archbishop INITIAL, who has been
head of the Church of England in
the West Indies for the past forty
zine years, was aboard, returning at
ter "A short trip to London.
Speaking of the Force-Astor en-
gaeement, the Bishop said:
ecu know there are two factions
Sac recognized Church of England.
Ine is very narrow and close in its
views. That faction believes in the
mdissolvibility Of the marriage tie.
The other faction is more liberal. 1t
takes a broader view of life and is
not opposed to the innocent party in
divorce affair marrying a second
time under certain conditions.
Il know very little about the Aston
Force engagement, but from what /
have learned a clergyman OF the
Church # England would hardly have
tht temvrity TO marry Mr.. AStor be-
cause ne is regarded as the guilty
party.
Indeed. such a clergyman. in per
torm.ng a ceremony with an apph-
cant for marriage such as Mr.. Astor
~ repre- scented to be, would be hailed
before a church tribunal. Further
than that. ne would be liable to the
civil courts. for the Church of Eng
land recognizes in a divorce case that
legal steps have been taken which ef-
