far aa possible the suffering of such
occasions, and endeavor to pass
through the crisis with her health
and strength unimpaired. This she

Friend, a remedy that has' been ao
long in use, and accomplished so
much good, that it is in no sense an
experiment, but a preparation which
always produces the best results. It
is for exernal application and so pen
etrating in its nature as to thoroughly
lubricate every muscle, nerve and ten
don involved during the period before
baby comes. It aids nature by ex
panding the skin and tissues, relieves
tenderness and soreness, and perfectly
prepares the system for natural and
safe motherhood. Mother's Friend
has been used and endorsed by thou
sands of mothers, and its use will
prove a comfort and a benefit to any
woman in need of such a remedy.

public far greater values in Corsets from $3.00
up than any other maker can afford to give,
