    Every woman loves to think of the
llino when a soft llttlo body , all her
own , will nestle In her bosom , fully
satisfying the yearning which lies In
the heart of every good woman. But
yet there Is a black cloud hovering
about the pretty ptcturo In her mind
which ( Ills her with terror. The
dread f childbirth takes away much
of the joy of motherhood. And yet It
need not bo so. For sometime there
has been upon the market , well-known
and recommended by physicians , a
liniment called
which makes childbirth as simple and
* . easy as nature Intended It. It Is a
v strengthening , penetrating liniment ,
which the skin readily absorbs. It
I gives the muscles elasticity and vigor ,
. prevents sore breasts , morning sick
ness and the loss of the girlish figure.

commend that when any extensive
repairs are necessary on the north
channel bridge , the bridge across
HP id north channel bo taken out and
graded and the south channel rip-
raped.

we found in good repair except
north approach. Wo would ruoum
mend 111 it rip-rap about 100 feet
Icng bo put in on south side begin
ning about 300 feet above the
[ bridge to form a wing dam On
the north side we rcoi imnend that
about 1 50 feet of rip-rap be put in
beginning i p the channel and end
ing at the hritrgf.

recommend that when there is need
of general repairs on thid bridge the
