The Wonderful Call
 When Baby Comes
Like the Blast of Heavenly Trumpet
 When Call of Motherhood Is Felt.

Of all the most vital times In a woman's life the coming of baby is fraught with the greatest meaning. Care should be exercised 10 insure that the crisis is passed in safety.
 Apprehension is avoided by the timely use of Mothers Friend. a preparation of penetrating oils and medicinal Ingredients. which renders the muscles, cords. tendons and fragments pliable, and thus tension is avoided. The usual nervousness, nausea. bearing~down and stretching pains are coun- teracted and the period is one of calm TO- pose.
 The broad. fat abdominal muscles relax with ease. and when baby comes the time at the crisis is less and pain and danger Is avoided.
 Thousands of women for half a century have used this penetrating external applca- ton, prepared especially for expectant moth CTS, and every woman awaiting the crisis should give nature helping hand.

There is a more serious stage of Catarrh than the annoyance caused by, the stopped-up air passages, and the hawking and splitting and other distasteful features.

Then the blow fell, and all the men

are designed for the irritation Of the
nose (the "sneeze-gases"), making it
ALMOST impossible for the fighter to

production Of burns when in contact
with the flesh, which are of a most
distressing character, and, even If
they do not cause death, incapacitate
the victim for service for period Of
months. The last-named gases are
likewise toxic and lachrymatory to a

No Better Security on Earth.

The credit Of the United States was
so high and unquestionable that in
1900, two years after the Spanish war,
2 per cent bonds were offered at par
and oversubscribed. This is finan-
cial performance no other nation has
ever equaled. United States per
cent bonds in 1888 sold as high as 100,
and in 1901 brought 139% on the stock
market. The United States has new
er defaulted on any Of it's bonds. Not
one of its bondholders has ever lost a
cent Of principal or interest, except

losses by selling their bonds in a Pc
