Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or understands how to properly care for herself. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following 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 a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed diild birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from, an unprepared condition, and with ample time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial.

Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and Invigorator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong. If yon want special advice write to lydia E.

It is one of the greatest things in the world to take a good dinner and go to the mountains with a crowd of boys and girls and hunt for the funny little brown fellows in their prickly coats.

And now I want to tell you of two stubborn ones in the storv of THE OPENING OP A CHESTNUT BURR Once upon a time old Mother Chestnut Tree was very much provoked. You see it was late, late Autumn, and she wanted to go to sleep. Most of her leaf trimmings she had given to help make Mother Earth's patchwork quilt, (with which she covered herself before she pulled her snow white counterpane over her). All the little Chestnut Children had rown up and gone out into the world, wrapped in their queer prickly covers all but one pair of twins who cuddled down Inside their burr and refuse to be opened. You must go out into the world, my dears," said Mother Chestnut Tree.

"It Is what I have raised you for. It is time for my long rest." "We won't leave this branch balcony," saucily answered they. "We won't let anything open our burr. We don't want to see anybody or anything." "Dear me," sighed Mother Chestnut Tree. "I've had the care of a large family all summer long.

I've had to make their flowery Spring clothes: I've had to furnish them food from my root kitchen; I've had to see that they were properly covered in their burrs; I've had to keep the leaf vines growing over the porches to protect them from the sun; I've had to watch the nastly little worms so that they wouldn't spoil my babies' health: I've had to make their coats of brown, so that they would appear well dressed when their burr coverings opened. I am tired, tired, tired, and I want to rest. I promised Mother Nature my leaves when all the rest of the children left me smiling, and went out into the world and now those stubborn twins are eroing to spoil my whole winter's rest, if they will not let their burr open, and won't go. How can I sleep as long as there are children in the house? I know what it will mean. It'll be 'Mother I want a or 'Mother I'm cold, the covers are all kicked off," or "Mother you forgot to kiss all winter long.

There Is no one loves babies better than I do, but when winter comes I want to rest." So she worried, as one by one she threw her leaves down to Mother Earth as they turned yellow. At last she sent for Uncle Wind who came along In his blustering way. "Won't go out into the world to earn their living, won'f they? I'll show them." And he blew the strongest kind of a gale but it was of no use. Those little twins Just cuddled down closer in their burr covering while the prickles stood out all the nastier and there they hung. Then she called on Jack Frost.

"Stubborn children, eh?" said he. "We'll see, we'll see." But though he painted the thickest kind of a frost around the burr that did not matter the little chestnuts would not peep, and the burr would not open, or fall to the ground. But one day into the woods came two little boys. They each carried queer things made of of fine sticks and strings. "What shall we shoot with our bows and arrows?" asked one.

"Dad said we dared not shoot birds and besides I don't like to at any rate they sing so prettily and they are not good to eat; not these kind. "Well, we want something up very high, so we can practice," answered the other. So they looked and looked. At last they spied the one big chestnut burr swinging on the very top balcony of Mother Chestnut Tree's house. "Ho," said they, "Just the thing.

We thought all the Chestnuts were over. That'll be great fun to take that bisr fellow home and say we shot it from the tree." So into the air flew the little arrows closer and closer to the mark they hit. At last Mother Chestnut Tree heard one of the twins cry. And when she looked there was the burr, with chestnuts and all falling, falling, falling and the boys shouting as they came. Mother Chestnut Tree felt sorry for It hurt the little chest nuts much more than if they had left Uncle Wind or Jack Frost take them oft but as she said as the boys stopped to mash the burr with a huge stone, so that they could get the chestnuts "When children don't know what is good for them, It Is time something happens to make them do as they ought It will be a great deal more 'pleasant for those little fellows to be roasted In a nice warm room than to freese through the cold weathei for I could not have possibly kept them warm." Then looking down she saw that Uncle Wind had Just snatched' her last yellow leaf for Mother Earth's patch quilt.

"I'm so clad 1 can aleep in peace," she drowsily said. iiovingly. AUNT ESTE.
