THE CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in 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
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, most valuable tonic and
invigorator Of the female organism.

plosion which wrecked the plant Of the

cause Of the explosion may never be
known.
At first 1t was reported gasoline was
responsible for the accident Later 1t
was said that sulphuric acid was prob
ably the cause. The coroner shared
the latter opinion and said he based
his belief on the statements OF others
who were acquainted with the pro-
cesses Of rubber manufacturing used
In the plant.
1t was believed the explosion oc-
Cured In a department where the
molten rubber was being prepared.
There were several workmen In this
department. but as far as could be
learned none escaped to tell the story.
The officials Of the company refused
to give out any statement and gave
all their attention to caring for the
dead and dying. The coroner has an
nounced he will begin Immediately q
rigid Investigation into the affair.
