ia womanhood, or tho change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, unci the
third Is Change of Life,
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the mificry that . cornea

Women should remember that Lydla

the critical period of puberty, has

tho world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
