This Is a most grateful, penetrating, ex
ternal application that at once softens and
makes pliant the abdominal muscles and
ligaments. They naturally expand without
tV? slightest strain, and thus not only
banish all tendency to nervous, twitching
spells, but there is atl entire freedom from
nausea, discomfort, sleeplessness and dread
that so often ieaTe their Impress upon the
babe.
The occasion is therefore one of un
bounded, Joyful anticipation, and too much
stress can not be laid npon the remarkable
influence which a mother's happy, pre-natal
disposition has upon the health and for
tunes of the generation to come.
