The days of wait- ing and hoping and anx- iety before the little comes; the after years of care and solicitude, nursing the little life into physical com- pleteness; guiding the little one footsteps, the little hands and the gradually sanaaee mind—all this is part of the bur- den of motherhood Yet an expectant mother is happy with it all in blissful an- ticipation of the dear, soft nestling little bit of humanity which is all her very own. If the mother is phvsicially weak or ail- ing, the burden of motherhood is far heavier than it oughtto be. The greatest lightener of the burdens of maternity which sciemce has ever discovered is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It was devised by an expert specialist for the express object of strength ening and healing the organs which make motherhood possible. : Taken before the baby comes, this won- derful *‘ Prescription” relieves the ordeal of all danger and nearly all pain. It gives both mother and child a permanent in- crease of constitutional vigor. The properties and uses of this wonder- working ‘‘ Prescriptioa’’ are more fully de scribed in one chapter of Dr. Pierce’s great thousand-page book, ‘‘ The People’s Com- mon Sense Medical Adviser,’’ which wili be sent free, paper-bound, on receipt of thirty-one one-cent stamps to pay cost of customs and mailing only, or cloth-bound for fifty stamps.

I wish she had been of my own station! What a queen she would have made !” He relapsed into a moody silence which was not broken until we drew up in Serpentine avenue. - The deor of Briony Lodge was open, and an elderly woman stood upon the steps. She watched us with a sardonic eye as we stepped from the brougham. “Mr. Sherlock said she. “I am Mr. Holmes,” answered my companion, looking at her with a ques- tioning and rather startled gaze. ‘Indeed!
