Men Pay Homage
to Mothers Friend

II am not surprised to observe the
number of men who come into the store
to purchase Mothers Friend remarked
q leading druggist.
The expectant mother If she hasn't
heard Of this splendid embrocation is
probably not reading the papers to much
extent. And If she does it is a happy
thought to send hubby to the drug store.
Mothers Friend" is aD~r+e1 externally
over the abdominal muscles
It is gentle, soothing lubricant, pene-
tTateS to the fine network of nerves
beneath the skin and has e. marked
tendency to relieve the muscular strain
to which these broad, fiat abdominal
muscles are subjected. The cords, ten
dons and ligaments> are thus permitted to
stretch without the corresponding surface
strain so often involved during the period
OF expectation. And particularly to young
mothers is this remedial application of
inestimable value since in thus keeping
the muscles firm but plant it enables
them to go through the ordeal without
liberation of the epidermis often the case
when this gentle attention is neglected.
Mothers Friend" is highly recon-
mended by a host of women. Write
Braddeid Regulator Co., 40S Lamar Bldg,
Atlanta, Ga, and we will send you a val
liable little book to expectant mothers.

SIX VARIETIES OF LOVE
, tha ANnshinnton post

From the Washington Post.
 Six varieties of love were, defined by Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman. leading writer on the feminist movement in a lecture before large and fashionable audience at the Hotel Astor.
 There is love No. l., said Mrs. Gil- man, which represents gratitude; that which is shown, for instance, by Q child toward it's parent in return for the ben efits bestowed upon it.
 Love No. is that represented in friendship based on sympathy.
 Love No. 3 is that founded on admir- ation, which may lead to an adoration or worship for those who are able io do the things that we cannot do.
 Love No. represents usage-in- cluding the love of home and country patriotism.
 Love No. is represented in penevo- lence, which means service, devotion, one of the strongest and noblest kinds of love.
 Love No 6 is represented in sex att traction, which merges into the greatest of all loyes-the one which is destined to regenerate and save humanity mother love-"

Question of Medical Ethics

That it is q comparatively easy matter for man to obtain a doctors certificate to avoid attending court, has been demon- strated by the recent developments in our courts, said a man who served az a juror last week. Several times during the past few weeks have certificates been presented to the courts from reputable some defendant is too sick to stand trial
 Tn several instances the presiding judge has had an examination made by other physicians who have stated, with out qualification, that the person referred to was not sick and that he was able to attend court. Incidents of this kind have happened in the past few days in the county court and federal court. and in both instances the physicians were reput- able. The doctors themselves are stick lers for the ethics of the profession, but when certificates are issued by reputable phy ysicans to delay or avoid the wheels of justice, the ethics of the medical pr rofession gets decided jolt.
 Tt is possible that the doctors may be misled by the supposed patient, and issue the certificate in good faith. If this is true, then recent happenings would tend to show doctors certificates are not to be relied on unless a man is mortally sick or has had a limb amputated It occurs to me that this is a matter that medical associations might with profit take up.'

What is claimed to be the original Mona Lisa of Da- -vinci belongs to an author named Eyre, who resides at Isle worth. says q London dispatch. Some critics declare that this picture and not the copy in the Louvre, which was stolen and recovered in a most sensational man her, is the masterpiece of Da Vinci The painting at Isleworth differs in several particulars from the picture in the Louvre It shows the columns on either side the figure mentioned by Vasari the early Italian art historian, as being a part of La Gioconda." These columns are shown in drawing which Raphael is supposed to have made of Mona Lisa" from memory, this drawing being also in the Louvre. The Isleworth picture is con temporary with the painting in the Louvre and is much larger. There is a back ground of trees in the Isleworth picture, found likewise in the Raphael drawing, but not in the work in the Louvre. Leon ardo Da Vinci himself speaks of two DOT traits of Mona Lisa. Browning wrote of the Louvre as being content with a copy of "Gioconda."
