MISS GRACE MORRIsSEY.

Miss Grace Morrissey has gone
back to first principles, and is living
on milk. She has done 1t for two
years now, and this in spite of the
fact that she is an actress and sup
posed to spend much of her waking
time dallying champagne, rarebits
bits and lobster a la Newburg.
Miss Morrissey, who is a leading
member of the Broadway Jones'
Company, which opens at the Atlanta
Theater Monday, took up the milk
diet because she had to and kept it
up, she says, because she liked to.
Eating Is habit" she says. 81
found this out after it had ruined my
stomach and goaded me into a course
of that awful hot water and pre-
digested food diet. I guess I was
pretty near desperate when an old
doctor advised me to quit eating and
confine myself to a glass of milk
every hour.
AT first l didn't like it, but now it
is quite a part Of my life. | have
stuck to 1t because it Is the simplest,
easiest and healthiest way l have ever
found to live"

It is pity more women do not know
of Mothers Friend. Here is a remedy
that softens the muscles, enables them
to expand without any strain upon the
ligaments and enables women to go
through maternity without pain, nau
sea, morning sickness or any of the
dreaded symptoms so familiar to many
mothers.
There Is no foolish diet to harass the
mind. The thoughts do not dwell upon
pain and suffering, for all such are
avoided. Thousands of women no long
er resign themselves to the thought
that sickness and distress are natural
They know better, for in Mother
Friend they have found wonderful
penetrating remedy to Danish all those
dreaded experiences.
II is a subject every woman should
be familiar with. and even though she
may not require such a remedy, she will
now and then meet some prospective
mother to whom a word in time about
Mothers Friend will come as wonder
full blessing. This famous remedy is
sold by all druggists, and is only s1.0O
a bottle. 1t Is for external use only,
and is really worth its weight in gold.
