'acts ~ About Motherhood The experience of Motherhood ls a gone to most women and marks stine tiy an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hun dred is prepared or nnderstandf now to jproperlycare forher ll self. Of course near ly every woman no w adays has medical treatment at the ^ .?^?55^1//time of child-birth, j&Sc '^ffi^^Ls) but many approach th9 experience with in organism unfitted for the trial of ingth, and when the strain is over 1er system has received a shock from rbich it is hard to recover. Follow Ilng right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than j a happy and healthy mother of chil > dren, and indeed child-birth under right conditions need be nb hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is kthat, with all the evidence of shattered ierres and broker: health resulting Jrom an unprepared, condition, women } will persist in going blindly to the trial. It isn't as though the experience came upon them unawares. They have ample time in which to prepare, but they, for the most part, trust to chance and pay the penalty. In many homes once childless there [are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal, j healthy, and strong. Any woman who would like special advice in regard to this matter is cordially invited to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. Her letter will be held in strict confidence.

Statistics showing how serious a |problem tuberculosis is to the r>rdi ?ary church congregation have ueen ?sued by the National Association for ie Study and Prevention of Tuber mlosis. From reports received from iver 725 churches, with a membership >f over 312,000 communicants of r wen ty denomination s, and from 208 cities and towns in 12 states in vari ous parts of the country, out of nearly r,000 deaths in 1910, over 700 or 10 \ter cent., were caused by tuberculosis. !*his means 2.24 deaths for every tbou ind members or communicants. lile the percentage of deaths from iberculosis compared with other dis eases is not higher in the churches, iccording to these figures, than in the ?country at large, the tuberculosis death rate, as shown by the church returns, ls higher per thousand com municants than that for the general population in the registration area of the United States, which the census bureau gave as 1.67 in 1909.

Oliver Herford and a friend were strolling through a section of town that was plentifully strung with pul ley lines on which many a family "wash" was waving in the wind. Mr. Herford's companion called attention to the manner in which these gar ments shut out the sky and otherwise disfigured the landscape. Mr. Herford gazed at them thoughtfully and then gently murmured: "The short and simple flannels of the poor." A WIDOW'S LUCK Quit the Thing That Wa? Slowly In juring Her. A woman tells how coffee kept her from insuring her life: "I suffered for many years chiefly iron- trouble with my heart, with severe" nervous headaches and neu ralgia; but although incapacitated at times for my housework, I did not realize the gravity of my condition till I was rejected for life insurance, be cause, the examining physician said, my heart was so bad he could not pass me. "This distressed me very much, as I was a widow and had a child de pendent upon me. It was to protect her future that I wanted to insure my life. "Fortunately for me, I happened to read an advertisement containing a testimonial from a man who had been affected in the same way that I waa with heart trouble, and who was bene fited by leaving off coffee and uV ig Postum. I grasped at the hope this held out, and made the change at once. "My health began to Improve imme diately. The headaches and neuralgia disappeared, I gained in flesh, an^ my appetite came back to me. Greatest of all, my heart was strengthened from the beginning, and soon all the distressing symptoms passed away. No more waking up in the night with my heart trying to fly Out of my mouth! "Then I again made application for life insurance, and bad no trouble in passing the medical examination. "It was seven years ago that I be gan to use Postum and I am using it still, and shall continue to do so, as I find it a guarantee of good health. Name given by Postum Company, Bat tle Creek, Mich.

SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN "When my boy was about three months old his head broke out with a rash which was very itchy and ran a watery fluid. We tried everything we could but he got worse all the time, till it spread to his arms, legs and then to his entire body. He got so bad that he came near dying. The rash would itch so that he would scratch till the blood ran, and a thin yellowish stuff would be all over his pillow in the morning. I had to put .mittens on his hands to prevent him "tearing his skin. He was so weak and run down that he took fainting spells as if he were dying. He was almost a skeleton and his little hands were thin like claws. "He was bad about eight months when we tried Cutlcura Remedies. I had not laid him down in his cradle in the daytime for a long while. I washed him with Cuticura Soap and put on one application of Cutlcura Ointment and he was so soothed that he could sleep. You don't know how glad I was he felt better. It took one box of Cuticura Ointment and pretty near one cake of Cuticura Soap to j cure him. I think our boy would have ! died but for the- Cuticura Remedies and I shall always remain a ' firm friend of them. There has been no ! return of the trouble.

I give it to the children for colds and it cures them. I used to suffer with constipation very bad, and nothing did me any good until I used your remedy. It is worth its weight in gold." The true value and merit of this reliable remedy, is at tested by its immense popularity, for more than 70 years. Try it. Price 25c. Be sure to insist on Thedford's.
