When Marriage Is a Failure

Surely marriage Is a failure when
its essential purpose. the raising OF a
family of children. proves impossible.
In the childless home the married
pair. though sometimes more or less
unconscious of the fact. grow disap-
pointed and lonely. Lacking the best
tie to hold them together they are
likely to drift apart. hence many sep
a-ations and divorces.
II every wife. whose physical state
prevents motherhood, would but try
that great remedy, lydia f. PINK
hams Vegetable Compound, there
would be far fewer childless homes
