MOTHERHOOD
SUGGESTIONS
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or I'M
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at
such times, but many approach the
experience with an organism unified
for the trial of strength, and when it
is over her system has received a shock
from which it is hard to recover. Fol-
lowing right upon this comes the ner-
vous strain of caring for the child, and
a distinct change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the 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 I'M
prepared condition, and with ample time
in which to prepare, women will persist
in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham sVegetable Com
pound, most valuable tonic and invig-
orator of the female organism.

Home Treatment for
SallOW, Wrinkled Skin

A. c. r. asks: What should I do
for my sallow complexion, and how
can I get rid of my w%rinkles?"
Sallowness is best removes by re-
moving the skin itself. This is ef-
fectually accomplished by the use of
ordinary mercolized wax, which causes
The offensive outer skin gradually to
peel off, in fine particles scarcely no
ticeable to the naked eye. Within a
week or SO o will have an enviabIe
complexion, the new skin exhibiting a
healthful, youthful tint incompatible
with artificial coloring. Get an ounce
of this wax at your drug store, apply
at night like cold cream, only don't
rub it in. Wash It off in the morning
with warm water.
For your wrinkles try a solution of
saxolite, me ounce, dissolved in a half
pint witch hazel Battle your face IN
this every morning for awhile. The
result will surprise you.

We had previously agreed to go to luncheon together, and
when the time came We left the store. After we reached our
destination and the waiter HE'D himself away with the order we
began to talk, discussing the tremendous Easter business which
We had done. 1t was more than We had ever had before.
looked across the table and said: isn't it peculiar that
the great majority of the people want to buy their new suits
or hats during Easter week?"
Well, you see" was the quick answer, "all stores as a rule
have a spring opening, which very often is nearer to Easter
than the first day of spring, and as that first day of spring
usually Is still very wintry most new spring garments and bon
nets make their first appearance at Easter"
But them, continued, how do you account for that
wonderful increase in I business? You've got exactly twice as
much business as last year. Tell me, how did you do it?'
A knowing smile flashed over her face. She answered in a
triumphant voice: The whole story is this-our store is known
to be only thoroughly reliable in every respect; we have the
best goods, whose reliability is not to be doubted, and as |
buy those goods in such large quantities, enough for all our
stores, get exceptionally low prices and special discounts from
the manufacturers which others don't get, and this, of course,
gives me Just enough eeway TO be able TO sell my goods a good
bit lower than anyone else, and it is only natural that with all
these advantages We can afford to make easier terms than any
one else whose transactions are all on a smaller scale and
confined to one store.
Another thing that really looks like a triAe, but which |
have found in all my experience of fifteen years of successful
buying in New York, Philadelphia and elsewhere to be most
important, is that the people all know if anything should not
be as we represent IT is we will always make good. You ought
to tell them more about this, too, in your Observation-Disclosures
we have been here over twenty years and it is our one desire
to satisfy EVERY customer that ever has bought and will buy
of our firm.
People have a right TO get entire satisfaction for their
money, and the hrm that realizes this and will act accordingly
will get the most trade. Now, do you wonder why doubled
the business in my department this year?" she concluded.
We'll" replied, Il do congratulate you most heartily and
on such principles as yours | am convinced that your depart
ment, beautiful and successful as it is, will grow and make mar
vicious strides ahead in the future"
Then the waiter came. An hour later we were both back
at our task in the beautiful store of ]. w. Greene & Co.
Yours truly,
THE AID MAN.

they solved it Prof Franklin reverts
again to the marble and the jar OF water
Imagine, he says, that small spot OF
oil is placed on one side OF the marble
This oiled spot. being slippery. will al
low the water to glide over it with less
friction. Therefore, the marble will be
DETECTED out of it's course. The direction
of this detection as related to the posi-
ton Of the oiled spot is shown in

Similarly, a wet spot on a base ball
the spot where the pitcher has spit on
it-allows the air to glide over the ball
with reduced friction. This slight effect
is sufficient TO determine the direction
of the sdewise jump of the ball.
1t must be borne in mind that the side
wise jump of the marble will take place
whether there is spot Of oil on 1t or
not. The oil spot merely determines the
direction Of this jump by imparting to the
marble tendency TO jump in a certain
direction When there is no oil spot on
the marble 1t frequently travels farther
in a straight line before taking it's jump
Athan it does when the oil has been rub

So also with base ball. Perhaps the

jump. In order to know exactly when
and how IL is TO occur, a pitcher would
have to throw the ball SO as to keep the

this without spinning the ball would he

However the ball may be set spinning

How many pitchers know all this, How
many fans have the slightest inkling
OF 1t? How many vociferous boys on the

German Scientist Explains
the SeaSh0re Sunburn

EVERYBODY knows that the sunburn
: contracted at the seashore is deeper
in color and more lasting than sunburn
sustained in the mountains. We usually
attribute this fact to the ''glare" at the
seashore, or loosely say that the sun Is
hotter at the seashore than in the noun
tains.' 1t remained for DR.. II. Leo OF
Bonn, Germany. to offer scientific ex-
PLANTATION of the fact
We know that any one who is deprived
of sunlight for any length Of time loses
color in very short time. Witness the
color of arctic explorers and the prison
pallor," too well known to require COM
ment. But at the seashore 1t is not the
sun alone which dyes the skin deep nut
brown. The salt water of the brtny deep
plays an important part in thus pigment
ing the skin. When the sun shines upon
the water. chemical action takes place
in the water. decomposing small guam
tity of the water at the surface. and
changing its oxygen into ozone. There is
nothing more healthfui for lungs and
blood and nervous system than breath
ing ozone.
Ozone Is a peculiar modification of
oxygen, possessing certain attributes of
oxygen in greater degree than oxygen
itself It's action upon the human skim
together with the usual massage OF the
skin compassed by sunlight which rear
ranges the pigment contained in every
skin, produces sort of oxydatfon, which
is very much more durable, being an
actual chemical change, than the light
sunburn of the mountains which is due
merely to the pigment Of the skin be-
ing brought to the surface by the sun.
The wind at the seashore also aids in
the process of oxidation. by draining the
skin of it's hydrogen, thus making Il
more susceptible for the action OF the
ozone.
The reason why ozone is so health
