U-7iateful am that my mother

bus ends" that "a stitch in time saves
nine," and ITO the pure mind all things
are pure" Hence If it is necessary
to speak Of unseen parts of the body
the pure in mind will not be horror
stricken.
Someone has said, "evil to him who
evil thinketh;" so be it.
With a feeling of awe l offer my
mite, fearing that you will ignore it,
and tremble to think of the woe and
misery caused by ignorance and care
lessness.
For some cause doctors neglect
to inform or advise young mothers as
they should. Because, perhaps, their
advice is often ignored or received
with show of false modesty that is
disgusting to doctors and nurses.
Seeing that we are denied this great
help, let us be up and doing all we
can for each other
Let me entreat every expectant
mother for her own sake and her
child's sake, to practice the advice
am giving. And try the simple rules
and home remedies, from which
have realized untold good.
Advice Based on Experience.
During the last half of the nine
months, every night put a handful Of
salt and half cup of I've soap in hot
water and battle the entire body in
summer, and the abdomen, small Of
back and feet and legs in winter This
helps the blood to circulate in variou
veins, prevents swelling and makes
you sleep like child.
After bathing use sweet oil or castor
OIL which is about as good. The heat
of the fire will help while rubbing the
oil into the skin of the entire abdomen
and breasts. This keeps the skin soft
and plant, and prevents adhesion of
the afterbirth, and although you may
not believe me, makes childbirth al
most painless.
Eat plain diet and avoid crowding
the stomach, even if you have to eat
more frequently. This prevents heart
burn and other troubles.
Take plenty of outdoor exercise
and rest when tired. If the weight
presses the bladder it causes a fire
'uuent desire to urinate, and bloatins
follows. To prevent this lie down fire
quently and rest, if just little while

A GREAT BENEFAcTREss.

Lydia E. Pinkham. of Lynn, Mass,
bequeathed to posterity such leg
aCy as few women leave behind
them. This woman, gifted with a
knowledge of the medicinal virtues
of roots and herbs, won lasting
fame by her discovery of a priceless
medicine to relieve women from
their sufferings and thousands of
American women, now well and
strong, claim they owe their health
and happiness to Lydia +. Pinkham's

THAT DEPENDS.


Dear Miss Fairfax,
A young man | met last Friday
evening has told me how much he
loved me. He also said there would
be no other girl but me. Do YOU
advise me to give up all my other
callers? MAY.
You do not say if You reciprocate his
love. Without that knowledge it would
be impossible to advise YOU.

She Disappeared.

And no sooner is the vixen set at
large than-presto!-away she goes, bag
and baggage, out of the country, and not
a man in England has seen hide nor hair
of her since.

to Cleek at that time-iust to put him
on his guard against her. But l couldn't.
I've no more idea than a child where
the man went-not one"

mo, not one. Even Cleek himself
knows nothing of who and what she real

they palled together for the first time, and
ceased when they parted. Yes. l sup

later or, if it doesn't why, people VIII

Narkom looked at him. The suggestion
was so bald, so painfully ordinary and
commonplace, that, heretofore, it had
never occurred to him. To associate

years and am very much perpleXed
with the following: l have met sew
eral very nice young men with
whom l thought l was in love. but
when something parted US they
never entered my heart again. Is it
infa tuatiOn or love?

Narkom IL was none Of us none OF the

ord OF those years what II was That
chap Cleek was the man that did It, sir.

sion that keeps him from handling Yard
matters these days. But II he isn't, take
my advice. sir, and put him on this case

kom, Immediately. DO you think Id

be done? Put him on the case indeed!

by actual proof The woman brought
dozen witnesses to prove that she was
respectable Austrian lady on a visit to her
son in England; that the motor in which
she was riding broke down before that
Roehampton house about an hour before
our descent upon it, and that she had
merely been invited to step in and wait
while the repairs we're being attended to
by her chauffeur.
"Of course, such a chauffeur was forth
coming when she was brought up before
the magistrate; and a garage keeper was
produced TO back up his statement; so
that when the Mauravanian prisoner
confessed from the dock that what the
lady said was true, that settled It. l
couldn't swear to her Identity and Cleek,
who could, was gone. the Lord knows
where; upon which the magistrate ad-
mitted the woman to bail and delivered
her over to her solicitors, pending my eff
forts to get somebody over from Paris to
identify her.

Narkom, with a short. derding laugh.
Friends, indeed? What friends has he
outside Of myself? Who knows him any
better than I know him. and what do
know of him, at that?-nothing! Not
where he comes from; not what his real
name may be-not a living thing but that
he chooses to call himself Hamilton Cleek
and to fight in the interest of the law as
strenuOusly as he once fought against it.
