Women often astonish new acquaint
ances, who arc introduced to a large
fumily of strong boys and healthy girls,
who cujl this young looking woman
mother. It is popularly supposed that
. ,. maternity is the foe
!vr'i worn and faded face
ot many u mother
seems to warrant the
belief. Hut it is hard
to believe that nature
should compel a
woman to sacri
fice the rightful
.dower of her
k beauty m order
"to carry out a
natural function
of her being.
And nature does
not. The paiua
and sufferings
incident to
motherhood are,
to a large ex
tent, unnatural.
This is proved
by the use of J)r, Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription, which prevents and cures
nausea, tranquilizer the nerves, encour-
ages the appetite, induces refreshing
sleep, aim niaKe
