Expectant Mothers
Relieved of Pain
Women Use Prescription of
Famous Physician

since the days of our first parents
in the Garden of Eden, women have
borne the pain and discomfort of
childbirth. Science on its part, has
worked to modify and to relieve in
part, the dreadful suffering at such
a time.
The preparation known as "Mother E
Friend" is applied by the mother to-
be her self, externally, night and
morning. 1t relieves the tension on the
muscles, cords and ligaments of the
abdomen, and the expectant mother is
made much more comfortable The cri
sis is one of much less pain and dang
er.
Thousands of women who have used
it successfully state that they cannot
say enough about the good Mother 's
Friend" did for them and refer par
ticularly to the absence of nausea OIL
morning sickness.
