breasts , in condition so that swelling
or rising is impossible. Don't take
medicines internally. They endanger
the lives of both mother and child.

glasses. Time and again people buy clothing that is half made and containing mostly "Shoddy

goods in the house ; what you buy of us is reliable and made by the best equipped factories in the
beuijifje in the country. Our prices are the lowest named for good goods ; we carry no other.
