The eXpectant mothers physicai
comfort should be our first thought,
and all about her should see to II
that her preparation for baby's COM
ing be complete.
There is a most splendid remedy to
prepare women for the greatest time
in their lives, known as Mothers
Friend. 1t is applied to the muscles
OF the abdomen, gently rubbed in, and
at once penetrates to relieve strain
on nerves, cords and ligaments. 1t
makes the muscles so plant that they
expand easily when baby arrives; the
hours at the time are fewer. ana
pain and danger at the crisis is nat
urally avoided.
Mothers Friend enables the mother
to preserve her health and strength.
and she remains a pretty mother by
having avoided discomfort and suf-
fering which more often than other
wise accompanies such an occasion
when nature is unaided. Every
nerve. muscle and tendon is thorough
ly fabricated. Discomfort during the
period is counteracted, and the skin
after the crisis. Is left smooth and

LEVI Convicted;
BOOZE RETURNED
Aged Man Who Got Liquor
For Sick Wife Has Sem
tence Suspended.

The case ofaMorris Levi, 66 years
OF age. who was arrested May 81
and charged with violating .the~Rsed
amendment by bringing six quarts
of whisky into the District. was dis
posed OF yesterday in Police Court
by Judge Hardison, but the disposf-
tion was IN such q fashion that
those interested in the case have
learned little or nothing in regard
TO Whether or not whisky can be
safely brought In for medicinal pur-
poses
AtE the suggestion OF two physi-
cianS DR.. Edward H Behrend and
DIR. Michael ]. Ready. who ATTENDED
Lewis sick wife, the aged man went
to Baltimore and bought six quarts
of whisky. He carried with him a
written opinion of the two physl-
clans that his wife actually needed
the whisky for her ailments.
There was no doubt whatever IN
the courts mind, after the case was
heard. that Levi had acted IN good
faith and had really brought tne
Iiouor I'm for medicinal purposes, as
provided for in the Reed Amendment:
But-since there are no rules and
regulations yet made by Postmaster
General Burleson, who Is authorized
oy law to do so in these matters, the
court decided to enter convlcuon
against Levi rather than free him al
together and thus set a precedent
whereby "quack doctors" and otner
unscrupulous persons might ind
loophole to bring in wholesale quanu-
ties Of liquor, thereby nulltfyins the
Reed Amendment altogether.
Levi was fined 800 or sixty days ana
sentence suspended.
Another feature OF the case wnlcn
has apparently served to becloud the
liquot situation more, is the fact tnat
the court ordered the return OF the
six Qua rts OF whisky to Levi.
