The reason by Mother's Friend does expectant mothers so much good is because it is an external liniment, to be applied upon the outside, where much of the strafn comes. It helps because the pores of the skin readily absorb i it, and it comes into direct contact with tad it absorbed by the parts involved. I Morning sickness is qurckly banished, and nervousness is kept completely away. The sense of dread and foreooding is not experienced, even during labor itself. Confinement is short and almost wirnoui pain. Recovery is quick and sure.
