How many mothers realize that when'
the baby's advent Is expected they need'
strength for two instead of one. Worn-'
en, weak, nervous, "just able to drag
around," find themselves confronted
with coming maternity. They have
not strength enough for themselves, how
can they have strength to give a child ?
We don't look for the birth of strong
ideas from a weak mind. Why should
we expect the birth of strong children
from weak mothers?
The way to ensure health and strength '
to mother and child
is to use Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription
as a preparative for
motherhood. It
brings the mother's
strength up to tho
requirements of nat
ure, so that she has
strength to give her
child. It nourishes
the nerves .nnd so
quiets them. It en
courages a natural
appetite and induces
refreshing sleep.
"Favorite Prescrip
tion " makes weak
women strong and
sick women well.
There is no alcohol
In "Favorite Pre
scription" and it is
tree irom opium, co
caine and all other narcotics.
"I wlih to let you know Hie gTCl benefit wr
wife derived through taking your 'Fartfrite
r-rcKcriptlon, " wtltea Mr. Hobrrt Harden, of
Brandon, Manitoba. Bos atj. n waa whern
her baby came. We had heard to much of
your medicine that my wife decided to try it
1 1 may say my wllera are waa thirty-three
aud this wai her first child). 8h corameaced
to take ' Favorite Prescription five month be
fore her child waa bom. We have a fine healthy
girl, and we.belteve that thli waa mainly owing
to the ' Favorite Prescription,' taken faithfully
accordingto directloua. We ahall certainly rec
ommend it wheiever we can."
