Margaret Ann and Tim, jr.
If my bOy-some way / am sure that

splendid as dear little Tim shah be
very happy. Margaret Ann is very
clever. nut like all clever personalities,
she is not always good natured. But
little Tim. bless his heart. is a perfect
angel of sweetness and light He has
one of the dearest ways of talking
to you for minutes at a stretch, and
not saying an Ineligible word. Annie
loves him, if anything, better than
she does Margaret Ann. but to Tim,
his daughter lis more than gold and

Do you know, little book, almost
believe that most men love their
daughters better than their sons, al
though they. are very proud to have
sons. yet there always seems to be q
better understanding between girl
and her father than between father
and son.
You know. little book. that Havelock
Ellis has explained this on sex lines.
He says that mothers flirt with their
sons and that is the reason why most

The Joys of Com
ing Motherhood
A Wonderful Remedy that Is n Nat
uraI Aid and Relieves the Tension.

The eXpectant mother revolves in
her mind all We understand by des-
tiny. And it is of the utmost impor-
tance that her physical comfort be
our first thought.
There is a most splendid remedy
for this purpose. known as Mothers
Friend. 1t is applied over the mus
cles of the stomach, gently rubbed
in. and at once penetrates to relieve
strain on nerves. cords and liga-
ments. 1t makes the muscles SO
plant that they expand easily when
baby arrives and pain and danger
at the crisis is naturally less.
Mothers Friend is for external
use only, is absolutely safe and
wonderfully effective. 1t enables
the cXpectant mother to preserve
her health and strength and she
remains a pretty mother by having
avoided the suffering and danger
which would otherwise accompany
such an occasion. Every nerve,
muscle and tendon is thoroughly
fabricated.
Mothers Friend is prepared by the
Bradfield Regulator Co. 500 Lamar
Bldg. Atlanta. Ga. They will mail
you an intensely interesting Moth
erhood Book" Write them to send
it to you, and in the meantime send
or phone your druggist today for
bottle of Mothers Friend
Every woman should aid nature
in her glorious work. Mothers
Friend makes it possible for you
to do so, and should be used regu-
larly. without fail, night and
morning.

SPEAKER DISCUSSES
INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY
Percy H. Skinner Addresses Meet
ing of Secular League.

At the meeting of the Washington
Secular League at Pythian Temple
yesterday afternoon Percy H. Skinner.
q student of political and sociological
problems and philosophy, presented a
paper on individual liberty and So
cial control which won high praise
from other speakers.
The speaker reached the conclusion
that individual liberty should be unre-
stricted by the state in all matters
which concern the individual alone, but
that the authority OF the state must
obtain and control in all matters which
AFFECT two or more individuals. 1.-The
state Is a socially operated machine
and welfare" said the speaker. "The
state exists for the individual and not
the individual for the state. The pre-
vailing idea in Germany is that the
individual owes everything to the
state, but that the state has no neces-
sary obligation to its subjects. This
doctrine was recently termed the
hellish doctrine OF Kant and 1t ap-
pears that 1t is due largely to the
writings and teachings OF the Prussian
philosopher. Emmanuel Kant, to whom
the Kaiser has just ascribed the great
ness and power Of Germany"
A discussion Of the subject, especially
with relation TO present conditions,
was participated in by Samuel Salo-
man. Louis Fisher, Julian Pierce, B. r.
Lindas, Mr.. Briehl, Charles Kruze,
Evangelist Green and Reuben Fink.
