After Your Baby Is Born
Think Now About the Time to
Come Afterwards.

When you hold in your arms your
tiny new infant, be sure that YOU can
feel that before its arrival you did
all in your power to give to it a happy
prenatal influence.
Scientists say that the thoughts and
feelings of the expectant mother
greatly affect the health and DISPOSE
tion of the future infant
For over half a century thousands
of women who have used the time
honored remedy, Mothers Friend. say
that they entirely escaped nausea,
nervousness and that peculiar dis
tressing feeling so usual where ma
ture is unaided. They thus preserved
a wonderfully bright and happy dis
position, which reflects so markedly
upon the unborn child.
By the regular use of Mothers
Friend the muscles are made and
kept soft and elastic to readily yield
to natures demand for expansion
without the usual wrenching strain
The nerves are not drawn upon, and
as a consequence the expectant
mother is calm and serene and the
nights are not disturbed with nervous
twitchings, and the crisis is one of
joy and happiness.
Write the Bradfield Regulator Com
pany, Dept K, Lamar Building, At
lanta, Georgia, for their Motherhood
Book, of value to every woman, and
get bottle of Mothers Friend from
your druggist and begin a treatment
that will bring real results.

happiness that they did.
II man in love gives indications
OF needing to be examined by an
alienist, certainly no woman in love
would escape the incurable ward of
a mad house, for women take love
harder than men do, and every
woman in love acts crazy.
What else except that they are
daffy enough TO be put in straight
jackets. makes girls marry the kind
of men that they so often do? Could
anything else. except a brain storm.
account for the fact that girls rush
into marriages that any sane person
can see are bound TO inevitably
bring them lifelong misery? Yet they
do IL continually. A girl in love is
so far beyond reason that you can't
persuade her that she can't reform a
drunkard. or inspire a shiftless shirk-
er 10 work, any more than you can
convince a lunatic that he can't
jump off of the Woolworth Building
without killing himself.
What else except that she is so
mentally afflicted that she is no
longer able TO realize the nature and
quality of her acts makes a girl in
discreet enough to write a man fool
love letters? What else except that
she has taken entire leave of her
senses prompts a girl 10 call a man up
over the telephone in business hours
and ask him if he loves her just as
much as he did last night at II
o'clock.
What else except that her intellect
is temporarily under eclipse makes it
possible for an intelligent girl who
has taken a college education. to
spend hours at a stretch gUrgling
with delight while some fool Romeo
asks her. loose ducky is oo?"
What else except being possessed
OF a mono mania that clouds her
perceptions so that she cannot see
the thing before her eyes. makes a
woman behold the hero of romance
and an Apollo Belvidere. in a short
man with bay Widowed figure and
bald head?
Yet practically all girls in love eX-
hibit these indications OF an intellect
disturbed in rational funCtioning.
It's the halluCination that the man
she loves is the handsomcst. the
wisest, the wittiest human being in
the universe and that she has
snatched him away from every other
woman, that turns this dull Old world
into a paradise for every girl who IS
in love. 1t is the illusion that her
husband is the greatest financier, the
most brilliant writer. the most tai
ented artist that ever lived, that
keeps the wife satisfied with her lot,
happy in the harmless dclusion that
she has married the king and is his
queen.
Love a madness? Yes, undoubtedly,
but pray God that those who have
that insanity never recover their
reason.

a message from the President of Sal

world war might bring about a closer
union and a more thorough under

Dr. Zaldivar made a short address OF
Fsreeting and explanation. Mr.. John

The President OF Salvador, and showed
fome attractive views of the little
central American republic. DR.. Zal-

beautiful showing Of pictures, but the

arrive. After the little lecture. the
hoor was cleared for dancing and a

Nine. ZaldIvar wore a beautiful
gown OF white satin with iridescent
brilliant landings, touches of smoky

is LOVE INSANITY?
By DOROTHY DIX
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER

1t it often said that this is an
unromantic age. Conclusive proof of
the truth OF this statement Is found
in the fact that a young woman in
the West has actually been arrested
and tried for lunacy, simply because
she was in love.
This girl became enamoured OF a
handsome young preacher, and in
stead of letting concealment prey
upon her damask cheek after the
lackadaisical manner OF the maidens
Of the past. she followed the tactics
Of the modern girl, and boldly went
to the object of her affection and
told him OF her love.
Unfortunately, the gentleman in
question did not reciprocate her ten
der sentiments. Neither did being
wooed make a hit with him, and
when the young woman continued
to refuse to take mo- for an an
swer. and to persue him with burn
ing love missives, and unwelcome
calls. he had her arrested on writ
of lunaCy.
Happily, the judge was a man of
sentiment. Sitting in Cupids court,
as well as the court of law, he up
held the sanity Of love, and declared
that while it might be indiscreet for
a woman to pop the question, 1t was
no indication of mental alteration.
The question thus raised as TO
whether love is a manifestation OF
madness or not is n most interest
ing one. and it IS one concerning
which all of us have two opinions,
both as regards other people and
ourselves.
Undoubtedly. an individual in love
does manifest many signs of dis
ordered intellect. They have halluCi-
nations in which they see charms
and graces that are noneXistent In
some other ordinary and common
place male or female. They burble
strage and incoherent nonsense. and
commit acts OF which they would be
utterly incapable in lucid moments
These phenomena of love are so
common, and they are so SeheraIiy
held to indicate that the person in
love is not mentally accountable that
the lover is universally treated with
lnOulGent ply NlldN VIC DNNSS" NfSt'
half wit.
Nor is this verdict that the lover
is nutty confined to our opinion OF
others. After an attack Is over we
realize that we ourselves have been
non compos mentis for the time be-
ing. This realization of our afflicuon
is brought poingnantly home to US
when after the lapse of many years
We meet again some carly sweet
heart over whose shoulders we shed
bitter tears, but in whom, after we
have been restored to sanity, we
can see none of the charms that we
once beheld.
Also many a husband and wife con-
templating their yoke mates, and
wondering how they happened to pick
out the particular misfits that they
did, have felt that they could only
account for the blunder they made
on the ground that when they did it
they were so crazy they should have
been locked up in a padded cell, in
stead of being permitted to commit

You can turn gray, faded hair beau

Sage and Sulphur Compound" at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved

druggist here, because it darkens the
hair so naturally and evenly that no

Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have a surprise await

applications the gray hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
