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

The experience of Motherhood a try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tnctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-
oerstands how to properly care for her
self. Or 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 a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this zones the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is smoothing 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 is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an u~nprepared 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, a most valuable tonic and
inyigorator of the female organism.

Washington, d. c., March o.. Rep

countries, and he voiced the senti-
ment some time ago in discussing the

| During the last few days it has de-

Gently the Texan held a number of
conferences with ambassadors inter
ested in the solution of the Mexican

WILSON MAKES
Plea FOR
BIRD DAY.
STATE SUPERINTENDENT
TELLS OF IMPORTANCE
OF BIRDS TO STATE

Oklahoma City, Okla, March o.
Perpetuation Of Bird Day in Oklaho-
ma and the following out Of the most
successful innovation instituted last
year by the game warden's office and
the superintendent of schools staff
has received severe setback at the
hands Of the legislature. The game
warden, George Noble, asked the leg
islature to make him an appropriation
sufficient to cover the expense OF get.
ting out Bird Day Book similar
to the one put out last year. and the
senate passed his bill.
The house, however. when the bill
was sent them by the senate, made
some radical changes in the appro-
priation and in the provision, and the
bill is now waiting the action of the
senate. Citizens interested in the
bird life of the state, as well as the
farmers who depend upon the feather
edgtribe to destroy insectivorous pests
and the school children of the state,
are most anxious that Bird Day should
be perpetuated and some provision
made for the conservation OF bird life.
Interview by Wilson.
The following interview with r. H.
Wilson, state superintendent Of
schools, gives an idea Of the import
ance to the state Of the measure pro-
viding for Bird Day observation:
Last year the department of edu-
cation and the state game and fish
department joined in the preparation
and publication Of Bird Day Book.
This was probably the most attractive
issued by state depart
ment during the year. The enthusi-
astic reception given it by the teach
ers and pupils throughout the state
proved its value. There have been SC
many requests sent ip for copies OF
the book that the cation is com
pletely exhausted
This year there is movement,
in its scope, to observe
April 8 as Bird Day. Plans have been
made by the state game warden
George Noble. and the state superin
tendent OF schools, r. H. Wilson, tc
issue another Bird Day Book this
year Copy for the book has beer
in the state department Of
education, but it can not be published
until money is available.

the warp and woof of love
