Mothers Friend
Before Baby Arrives

During several weeks Of expectancy
there is a splendid external embrocation
In our Mothers Friend" in which
thousands of women have the most
nnbounded ccnf1dence. They have used
1t and know. They tell of its wonderful
infuence TO ease the abdominal muscles
and how they avoided those dreaded
stretching pairs that are SO much talked
about. This safe external application is
gently used over the skin to render It
amenable to the natural stretching which
1t undergoes. The myriad Of nerve
threads just beneath the skin is thus
relieved OF unnecessary producing
causes and great physical relief IN the
result as expressed fy . host Of happy
mothers who write from personal
experience.
1t is subject that all women should
be familiar with as Mothers Friend"
has been IN use many years. has been
Ctven the most severe tests under most
all trying conditions and is recommended
by women who to-day are grandmothers
and who in their earlier years learned
to rely upon this splendid aid to women.
Mothers FRIEND ID declared by O
multitude of women to be just what ex.
pectant motherhood requires.
You can obtain Mothers Friend at
almost any drug store. Get a bottle

Jacobs belonged to Alabama instead Of
to Florida.
But Mrs. Jacobs field Of labors is
not circumscribed. She is indeed a
citizen of the world. For the lack OF
the ballot cannot prevent good citizen
snip, any more than the dropping of a
piece or paper in the ballot box can
confer 1T. 1t is what the ballot repre-.
sents that counts, for as Mrs Jacobs
pointed out, the casting of the ballot
is the expression of an opinion. That
Is all 1t is a small thing to drop q
piece of paper in a ballot box, but it
is a stupendous thing to express an
opinion IN such a way as to make for
or against good citizenship.
Mrs. Jacoo os wants the ballot for her.
self and other women because she
thinks she and the women she repre-
sents stand for a great part of the in
telligence OF this country. She be-
iieves that they have better right to
express an opinion than the immi-
grant who can not read or write Eng
lish, or who has no true conception of
civic duty, or whose interests are en-
tirely alien, and whose only idea is to
get together q small competency and
then to return to the Old World, to
live on his little hoard.
Mrs. Jacobs believes that she and tue
women she represents have as much
right as the American man has. be-
cause they are as well educated, as
well balanced, as we'll equipped in
every way to keep in touch with the
needs of this country and the reme-
dies to be applied to social conditions.
Mrs. Jacobs believes that she and
the women she represents have just
as much intelligence as the twenty one
year old boy, who casts his vote. That
they are quite as loyal to their coun-
try, much better informed as to its
real needs, and have quite as much
leisure to cast an occasional ballot, and
to protect against evil or throw the
weight of their opinion on the side
of right and justice.
Mrs. Jacobs believes that since wom-
en- must obey the laws they should
have something to say about the laws
put on the statute books and their en-
forcement. She believes that as wom
en- pay taxes just as men do, thus sup
porting the government, they should
vote equally with men. That the s.

Association has made a formal demand
upon the company TO grant free transfers
TO eastbound passengers also,t and is
preparing, In conjunction with other West
Philadelphia organizations. TO petition the

company grants the demand by january
l. Determination viii be charged in the
petition.
A request for free transfers To east
bound passengers at 10th and Market
streets was iirBt made Upon the company
n year and a half ago. AZ that time a
committee representing the Belmont Im-
provement Association waited upon ofii-
oiais Of the p. r. r. and presented
formal request for the abolition OF ex-
change tickets at that transfer point.
"a MIR. Hamilton, In the office OF the
T. r. r. met Us" said It. II. McCaffrey
president of the Belmont Improvement
Association, today. 'We did noFget in to
see Mr.. Mitten, SO We presented our re-
quest to Mr.. Hamilton. He could give us
no sufficent reason why free transfers
should not be granted. That was the
only answer we got"
The Belmont Improvement Association
recently sent letter to Thomas Il. Nit
ten, chairman Of the Executive Commit
tee of the Rapid Transit Company, for.
mally demanding that the FREQ transfers
be granted
"ff the p. r, T. Company does not
grant the demand by January l." said
Mr.. McCaffrey today, "the Public Service
Commission will be asked to order the
abolition OF exchange tickets at 10th and
Market streets. The Belmont Improve
ment Association will claim discrimlna-
ton as free transfers are now granted to
both cast and westhound passengers at
Goth and Market streets and at sea and
Market streets while the transit com.
pany at present grants free transfers At
10th and Market streets only to west
bound passengers"
The company, he said. contends that
the doth street line is not crosstown
line. The Lombard and South streets line
runs on 10th street. and the company
bases its claim, he said, on the fact that
the line runs over east and west tracks
for greater distance than IL runs on 10th
street.
