Greatest of A!!
. Human Blessing
The most wonderful thing Jn that world
is love expressed in the helpless Infant.
And among those aids and comforts for
expecUnt mothers is tho well known
"Mother's Friend." f
This la an external application to
enable the abdominal musclea to become
more pliant, to expand naturally without
undue pain from the strain upon cords
and ligaments.
In almost every settled community are
women who have enjoyed the blessing of
thla famous remedial and helpful embro
cation. Their daughters have grown up
to learn of its splendid assistance.
Applied as directed upon tbosa muscles
Involved It soothes tho fine network of
nerves with which all the muscles ara
supplied. Thus a great share of the pains
so much dreaded may be avoided and the
period of expectancy passed through In
ease and comfort.
Anything that adds so much comfort
must be counted as a blessing indeed.
In a little book sent by mill much use
ful Information Is given to Inexperienced
mothers. It tells how to use "Mother's
Friend" and how to avoid caking breasts.

USING SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR
8oap should be used very sparingly,
if at all. It you want to keep your hair
looking Its best. Most soaps and pro
pared shampoos contain too much
alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the
hair brittle, and ruins It. .
The best thing for steady use Is Just
ordinary mulstfted cocoanut oil (which
Is . pure and greaeeless). Is cheaper
and better than soap or anything else
you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
It In. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
ellky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
Tou can get mulslfied cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, and a few ounces
will Sttpply every member of the fam
ily tor months. Advertisement.
