A Woman Is As Old As She Looks No woman wants to look old. 1 Many in their effort to look youthful re sort to the "beauty doctor." Their mistake is that they visit the wrong de partment in the drag store. Beauty depends upon health.

This famous medicine strikes at the very root of these enemies of your youthful appearance. It makes you not only look younger but feel younger. It overcomes the weakness and builds you up. Your druggist can supply, you with liquid or tablets ; or send ten one-cent stamps to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo. N.
