THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MARCH 16, 1902. ADVERTISEMENTS. 'MOTHERS MUST GUIDE Should Watch the Physical Develop- ment of Their Daughters. Earn- est Words From Mrs. Pinkham to Mothers. Every mother possesses information of vital value to her young daughter. That daughter is a precious legacy, and the responsibility for her future is largely in the hands of the mother. The mysterious | change that develops the thoughtless girl into the thoughtful woman should find the mother on the watch day and night. As she cares for L‘;Pl ph\xw:fl well-being of her daughter, so will the woman be, and her chua: N aiso. _ When the young girl’s thoughts become sluggish, when she expe- ! riences headaches, dizziness, faintness, and exhibits an abnormal dispo- sition to sleep, pains in the back and lower limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude, and a dislike for the society of other girls, when she is a ) mystery to herself and friends, then the mother should go to her aid promptly. At such a time the greatest aid to nature is Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. It prepares the young system for the coming change, and is the surest reliance in this hour of trial. The foilowin% letters from Mrs. Southard are practical proof of Mre. Pinkham’s efficient advice to young women. ; Mothers Who Allow Their Daughters to Suffer are Cruel When Relief is Easily Obtained.

AN INJUNCTION GRANTED A Famous Toilette Powder Counter- feited. REPUTATION AT STAKE. Box, Label, Circular and Trade Mark Forged. LADIES, BE ON YOUR GUARD. PR ST ‘While it may be true that ‘“‘imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,”” it does not follow that the originator and owner of a valuable copyrighted article will quietly submit td the knave who steals the hon- est man’s money by deliberate forgery. A well-known Boston business man, who has, by patient industry, keen Insight and honest effort, built up a large and con- stantly increasing business, discovered a few months ago that some one, who ought to be repenting in prison, had made and was selling In San Francisco an inferior article, which bore but a faint Tresemblance to the, original, and by the use of the photo- electrotype process had forged the box label, the circular and trade mark of Ben Levy's Lablache Face Powder, which s known all over the world, and is in gen- eral use by the best and most distin- guished women, not only in America, but also in London, Parls, Dresden, Hong- kong, Shanghal, Mexico and Manila, and in fact everywhere. Its virtues have been sounded by Sarah Bernhardt, Mme. Em- ma Eames, Maude Adams, Mile. Rhea, M'le. de Lussan, Miss Marguerita Sylva, Miss Lettice Fairfax, and by scores of other famous women of the stage and in private life. Of course it goes without ' the saying that if Lablache Face Powder were but a mere combination of common chalk and perfume no one would have forged Ben Levy’s name and attempted to steal his business. It is only valuable signatures and articles of fame that are forged. ‘When Mr. Levy's attention' was called to this matter_he immediately consulted his attorneys, Messrs., Brandeis, Dunbar & Nutter of Boston and Messrs. Rothchild & Ach of San Francisco, who brought a bill of complaint in the United States Cir- cuit Court of Northern California against J. M. Wright & Co. of San Francisco, the seller of this spurious powder, and ob- tained an injunction prohibiting further sales. Suit is also brought to recover damages. The forger did his work so cleverly that careful scrutiny is necessary to detect the difference between the genuine and the spurious. The box label of the genuine is clear and bright, while the printing of the counterfeit label is dark and muddy. Mr. Leyy feels that his reputation is at stake, and he is sparing no trouble or expense to right this wrong. The Lablache Powder is a positive benefit to the complexion, and is the most delightful preparation of the kind known, while the spurious article is deleterious and liable to cause Injury. Mr. Levy asks that every lady using the Lablache will examine the label carefully, and if in doubt as to the genuineness of the article to send to Ben Levy & Co., 1% Kingston street, Boston, the circular or the cover of the box. together with tha name of the dealer from whom it was purchased, and If it 18 the counterfeit she will be advised by return mail so that she can demand that her money be refunded, and whoever sold it will be prosecuted by ‘B‘en Levy & Co. to the full extent of the We LY brands are all of the best and Paris point embroidery, per The *‘ Weldon ** We will confine ourselves to ¢ Eton Jacket with moire sil flounce skirt; entire suit t with satin bands. gray; Postillion back Eton with velvet collar; flounce skirt.
