More often than not, a large family of children used up every ounce of energy, and seldom did you find a mother who was anything but a "home body." Women in those days were more than middle-aged at thirty-five and forty. During these last two decades health education, proper diet, scientific care before, during and after child-birth, more sensible and balanced living, have done wonders for the average woman, in adding years of health and beauty to her life. Women at thirty-five now are at their best — they retain their youth, beauty, interest in life and sports, and are far more companionable mothers, wives and friends. Yearly examinations and following the Doctor's advice, will add more happy, healthy years to the life of modern women and men. JACKSON DRUG CO. Prescription specialists 237 EAST CENTER ST.
