BDMiuiriHnr Women vrho bear children and re inain healthy are those who prepare tbeir systems jn advance of baby's coming. Unless the mother aids nature in its pre-natal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de mands made upon it, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailments. No remedy is so truly a help to nature as Mother's Friend, and no expectant mother should fail to use It. It relieves the pain and discomfort caused by the strain on the ligaments, makes pliant and elas tic those fibres and muscles which nature Is expanding, prevents numb ness of limbs, and soothes the inflam mation of breast glands. The system being - thus prepared by Mother's .Friend dispels the fear that the crisis may not be safely met.
