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

Tho experience of Motherhood IL . try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tnctly 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 il hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and q distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
ahappy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing ID
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
.ple time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial

stranger in a large city as quickly as
a policewoman.
1t Is maintained by the authorities
that policewomen have no equal in
patrolling dance halls, moving picture
theatres. drinking resorts for women,
boardwalks and bathing places. Police
women are able TO mingle with the
females that frequ, Mt these places and
detect cases for the police authorities.
Chicago is the most prominent of
the big cities having policewomen. On
July s, 1913. Mayor Harrison asked the
City Council for ten policewomen with
the same standing as policemen and
governed by the same rules. The
Mayor said the women We're necessary
for the sympathetic and Intelligent
care OF girls and women.

called upon to perform"
In line with the Mayors wishes, on
August 5, 1913, eight ~police~yomen

Only a few days before the appoint

Poughkeepsie engaged a ~policewoman

Mrs Wood, Mrs. Meyerhofer would
not don a uniform. Her work prin-
cipally consisted Of guarding the
morals OF the young and p~atrolling

Should the Legislature finally pass
a bill authorizing the appointment Of
policewomen to New York's force this

In some OF these cities the police
women patrol their beats attired in
