EXPERIENCE
OF MOTHERHOOD


The experience of Motherhood IL q try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There Is nothing more charming than
a 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 unprepared condition, and with am
pie 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's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

Jusr ASK THE LADIES AID.
The old church bell has long been cracked,
Its call was but groan;
II seemed TO sound the funeral kneil
With every broken tone. - - =
I'VE need bell" the brethren said.
"But taxes must be paid;
We have no money we can spare
Jus. ask the Ladies' Aid.
The shingles on the roof were old;
The rain came down In rills;
The brethren slowly shook their heads
And spoke of monthly Bills.
The chairman Of the board arose
And said; ~ am afraid
That We shall have to lay the case
Before the Ladies' Aid"
The carpet had been patched and patched
TIL quite beyond repair.
And through the aisles and on the steps
The boards showed hard and bare,
sit Is too bad" the brethren said;
IAN effort must be made
To raise an interest on the part
OF members of the Aid"
The preachers stipend was behind;
The poor man biushed 10 meet
The grocer and the butcher A.
They passed him on the street;
But nobly spoke the brethren then:
pastor, you shall be paidl
Wen call upon the treasurer
OF our good Ladies' Aid"
sAh !" said the men. "the way 10 heaven
Is long and hard and steep;
With siopes of care on either side.
The path tits hard to keep,
We cannot climb the heights alone;
Our Esarts are sore dismayed;
We meier shall get 10 heaven at all
without the Ladies' Aid 1"

ground, just that one word To hundreds
who hear the word comes the vision of
that June - 1t may he year ago, ii may
be forty years ago wi hen their hearts
fiuttered at the sound OF the word;
when they saw radiant glimpses OF a
bright future; when they discussed decora-

hearsed again and again their part and
knew they should never remember it all !;
when they sang parting song and felt
that one chapter in their lives was surely
ended. The same thoughts thrill the
graduate, whether he be completing the
grammar school or the university course.
And SO as each year comes around and
June's flowers and evergreens deck the

pursued the course to the finish. What
