Mothers Tell of
Mothers Friend

Experience is or should be our best
teacher. Women who have obeyed the
highest and noblest of all sacrifices, the
struggle for the life of others, should
have a better idea Of helpful influence
than those who theorize from observation
At any rate when a prospective grand
mother urges her daughter to do as she
did-to use 'Mother's Friend" there Is
reason TO believe 1t the right advice.
Mothers FRIEND is an external ap'
plication for expectant mothers. Its pur-
pose is to furnish pliancy to the muscles
TO take away the strain on the cords and
ligaments to relieve the tension OF nerves
and tendons so apt to provoke or ag-
gravate nausea, morning sickness, twltch'
ings Of the limbs and so on.
Although. in the nature OF things. a
woman would use Mothers Friend" but

found that this splendid remedy is on sale
in most drug stores throughout the
United States. It has been prepared by

over forty years. This is a fine record
for such special remedy and the CRATE
full letters received to-day are just as
appreciative as were those OF years age
