THE CHARM
 OF MOT THERH0OD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
 cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is a 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 cnce with an organism unf1tted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system hes received shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and g. distinct change in the mother results.
 There is nothing mere charming than 9 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 nn unprepared condition, and with ann 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, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism.
