We 0 lay it down as an established truth that ft internal remedies are positively injuvi9 ous to expectant mothers. The distress and discomforts experienced during the months preceding childbirth can be al,f leviated only by external treatment?by . applying a liniment that softens and relaxes the over-strained muscles.

It overcomes morn* ?. ing sickness. It relieves the sense of tightness. Headaches ceasc, and danger from Swollen, Hard and Rising y Breasts is avoided. Labor itself shortened and shorn of most of the pain. We know that many doctors recom4 mend it, and we know tha'. multitudes a of women go to the drug stores and buy >e it because they are sure their physicians have no objections.

Two light batteries of the Sixth Artillery are already at Manila, 1 ^^kflwn Knar* ana me remaiaiug utmcnoe uan, ordered there. The Sixth Artillery was organized last spring, and its headquarters were at Fort McHenry. where its commander, Col. E. B. "Williston, now brigadier-general, was stationed for several months. Battery B has many Baltimore men in it. The battery will go away uuder command of Lieut. K. H. McMaster. Th* other officers accampanyin? it will be Lieat. John K. Cree and Lieut. .T. C Starbi^ Tbere are now 174 men in '-.mtsry, but it will be recruited up 10 tbe full strength of 200 men within a few days. Prof. Carl Mindt's Sixth Artillery Band will go with the regiment to Manila. "I intend to give a farewell concert before leaving Baltimore," said Professor Mindt yesterday. Lieut. R. H. McMaster is a son of Mr. R. N. McMaster. From another j item in the same paper it is possible that one of tbe batteries of the Sixth Artillery may be stopped in Hawaii. It is stated: "Two batteries of the Sixth Artillery are in Manila and tbe remainder of ihe regiment now distributed along the Atlantic coast is under orders t0 proceed there. Although not yet settled it is probable two or more of these batteries will be utilized lor military service in Hawaii. Iu that case they will be detached from the expedition on its way to the Philipines."
