A.. The Hours Pass the Coming 81
Baby Draws Nearer--Are
You Prepared?


No woman awaiting the 10Y Of COM
ing motherhood should allow the days
to pass without using the wonderfWl
penetrating application, Mothers
Friend,
BY its regular use throughout the
period the system is prepared for the
coming event and strain and tension
is relieved. II renders the broad, flat
abdominal muscles plant and they
readily yield to natures demand for
expansion, As q result the nerves are
not drawn upon with that peculiar
wrAnching strain, and nausea, nervous
ness. bearing-down and stretching
pains are counteractNd, The abdomen
expands easily when baby arrives and
the hours at the crisis are naturally
less. Pain and danger a. a consequence
is avoided.
Mothers Friend not only allays dis
tress In advance, but assures a speedy
recovery for the mother. The skin
is kept soft and smooth and natural
and free from Disagreement.
Write to the Bradfield Regulator
Company, Dept, ], Lamar Building, At
lanta, Georgia, for their Motherhood
Eook, and procure a bottle Of Mothers
Friend from the druggist. II is just as
standard as anything you can think OF.

It would give time for the public opin-
ion of the world to operate IN a con-
clliatory way to prevent bloodshed.
From members Of the American dele
CATION II was learned that scrupulous
care Is being taken to do nothing which
even remotely infringes on the Ameri-
can constitution and no fears need bA
entertained anywhere. The freedom Of
action for America has been fully pre-
served. 1t 10 true there is a discus
sion OF some things, which If approved
by the American people, would involve
the breaking OF traditions, but our dele
gates are open minded on these dis
cussions. Mr.. Wilson, for instance, is
being urged to have America undertake
the task Of policing Constantinople,
which will be internationalized and will
possibly be the seal Of the league Of
Premier veniEelos. for whom Mr.. vii
son has adopted an admiring friendship
since meeting him here, has said Greece
wishes to control Constantinople, but
would be willing to have the United
States undertake the task. 1t seems
unlikely that the American delegation
finally. would accept the suggestion, but

ton Of manufactures has been created
and America will be under no obliga-

Alkal Makes Soap
Bad for Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain 100 much alkali, which is very
injurious, as 1t dries fg scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use Is Just plain
mulstied cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
ANYTHING else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and a few ounces
will last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub 1t in, about a t~easpeonful is all
that is required. II makes an abund-
ance Of rich, creamy lather, ~cleanses
thoroughly, and rinses out easily The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and Ia
soft, fresh looking, bright, flufpg, w.avy
and easy to handle. Besides, it locsens
and takes out every particle Of dust,
dirt and dandruff. adv.
