THE DANGER
to which the Expectant Mother is
exposed and the foreboding and
dread with which she looks for
ward to the hour of woman's
severest trial is appreciated by but
few. All effort should be made
to smooth these rugged places
in life's pathway for her, ere she
presses to her bosom her babe.
MOTHER'S FRIEND
allays Nervousness, and so assists
Nature that the change goes for
ward in an easy manner, without
such violent protest in the way of
Nausea, Headache, Etc. Gloomy
forebodings yield to cheerful and
hopeful anticipations—she passes
through the ordeal quickly and
without pain—is left strong and
vigorous and enabled to joyously
perform the high and holy duties
now devolved upon her. Safety
to life of both is assured by the
use of " Mother's Friend," and
the time of recovery shortened.
"I know one lady, the mother of three
children, who suffered greatly in the
birth of each, who obtained a bottle of
'Mother's Friend' of me before her
fourth confinement, and was relieved
quickly and easily. All agree that their
labor was shorter and less painful."

Wine for Weakly Persons.
Weakly persons use Speer's Port
Grape Wine and the Unfermented

No Women Tramps.
A few days ago a house-wife was
pondering the tramp question and the
thought suggested itself to her that it
was strange that all the vagrants who
go around begging for a "bite to eat"
are men most of whom are well able to
work, and never a woman tramp is
seen. Not long after she had been
thinking of the matter, a rap was heard
at the back door and a daughter respon
ded to the timid knock. She was asked
the usual question and, turning to her
mother said;
"There is some one here who wants
something to eat."
"Is it a man or woman?" asked the
parent. "A man" was the reply.
"Well, since it's a poor man, you can
give him something, bat if it was a
woman she couldn't have it.'"
The incredulous look on the tramp's
countenance, which afterwards broke
into a broad smile, showed that a new
idea had been forced upon his brain.

Food undigested, is poison. Digested
it is life and strength. Millions of us
suffer from indigestion, but we often
don't know it. We think it is someth
ing else. Even doctors often mistake
the symptoms.
Pale thin people, who are overwork
ed, who need strength, who seem in
want of proper food, should take Shak
er Digestive Cordial. It is astonishing
what food will do, when properly di
gested.
It will make you strong, revive you,
refresh you, sustain you. make you fat,
restore your color, make muscle, brain 1
fibre, courage, endurance, energy; in- 1
crease your power to throw off distase .
and keep you healthy and happv,
Indigestion does iust the opposite,
but indigestion can be cured and pre
vented with Shaker Digestive Cordial.
