10 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTIiAKD, APKED 15, 1906. NOT A PATENT MEDICINE BTTT & Favorite Prescription of Dr. Pierce POE TECS DISEASES OF WOMEN ONLY. "TTOR forty years Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has been more JD generally sold than any other medicine prescribed for woman's ills. Dr, Pierce tells you just what is contained in this marvelous remedy for the diseases peculiar to women. There is not a particle of alcohol or injurious drug in this prescription. Pure, triple-refined glycerine is used for a. solvent and preservative instead of alcohol. Ask your physician if any one of the following ingredients which are con tained in this prescription are injurious. We guarantee that no harm ful results can follow the use of this .cure for those distressing and painful complaints from which women suffer at one time or another. The ingredients are: Golden Seal root, Lady's Slipper root, Black Co hosh root, Unicorn root, Blue Cohosh root, chemically pure Glycerine. The active medicinal principles of the several ingredients, or native American roots employed, are extracted by the use of glycerine on proper strength and with the aid of special apparatus and appliances devised and built especially for carrying on the delicate and exact processes employed. These processes cost Dr. Pierce md his assistant chemists and pharmacists much study and a long series of tedious ex periments, extending over a period of several years, and finally re sulted in an almost perfect pharmaceutical compound now known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. There.are good and substantial reasons why intelligent people and physicians as well, employ Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription for the cure of diseases and weakness peculiar to women. In the first place, it is not a cure-all, serving only a singleness of purpose, being a specific for one class of diseases only those peculiar weaknesses and maladies incident to women. Besides it is the onlj medicine put up for sale through druggists for the cure of such mala dies, all the ingredients of which have the endorsement of leading med-. ical practitioners and writers, as being the very best known remedies for the ailments for which "Favorite Prescription " is advised. With other medicines the afflicted have only their makers' word for their efficacy. With Dr. Pierce's medicines they have the disinter ested endorsement of scores of eminent medical practitioners and med ical writers of wide renown. These numerous unqualified endorse ments, from men whose writings are regarded as authorities in each of the several schools of medicine, are the more valuable .because they were written without any knowledge on the part of the several writers that they were extolling the curative virtues of ingredients that go to make up Dr. Pierce's world-famed medicines. Dr. Pierce's Family Med icines, therefore stand alone in respect to being the onry ones pro fessionally endorsed as remedies, or cures, for the several diseases for which they are recommended. A glance at the published ingredients will show that no narcotics or other harmful agents are employed; that no alcohol enters into their composition; that they are made of the roots of indigenous, or native, medicinal plants; that, instead of alco hol, chemically pure glycerine, of proper strength is used, both for ex tracting and preserving the medicinal principles residing in the several roots employed. WELCOME WORDS TO WOMEN: Frosa the view point of the avBrare man howework is very easy. The wile is right at bo me. She is her 6wb mis tress. Sbe can at down asd rest any time. Sbe can erea go to bed for a sap if sbe feels like it. Sbe can order ber hoasebold affairs fast to mit ber own convenience If she doesn't feel equal to doing work to-day, she caa do it to-morrow. That's the beautiful theory of the average-man. Just suppose the Egyptian task-masters, wben they made the required daily tale of bricks tax the uttermost of human strength, had said to the toiling slaves, "Don't hurry, take a rest every now and then only don't forget that-joHr tale of bricks mast be all right at night or else there'll be trouble." There's the fact. There are the day's duties to be got through, and the women who can rest may not. The woman, who, wben she married, said, -2ow I'll be my own mistress," finds herself a slave to household cares and duties. And oh! how much that woaaan needs rest sometimes. Sbe brashes and scrubs, and rolls pastrr, her temples throbbing, ber back aching, her nerves quivering under the Etrcse of pain. What she would give .if she could jest creep upstairs and throw herself on the bed in a darkened room and rest. Best would temporarily relieve the strain, doubtless, bat it would be the same story over again to-morrow. The real need of weak, nervous women is strength, and that need is fully met and satisfied by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. It re moves the causes of women's weak ness, tranqnilizes and invigorates the nerves, encourages the appetite and induces restful sleep. "Favorite Pre scription' is a positive care for the most complicated and obstinate cases of leacorrhea, excessive flowing, pain ful menstruation, unnatural suppres sions and irregularities, prolapsus or falling of the womb, weak back, n female weakness ante version, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic con gesti6n, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, inflammation, pain and tenderness of the ovaries, accompanied with "internti heaL" nI am pleased to add my testimony in behalf of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- raade of aative roots Nature's owb rastoratiree, compoaaded after a form ula coBoerniBg which there can be no osefltkm, by skilled cbemiets asd by thoroagbly scieatific processes. Doctor Pierce is perfectly willing to let every oae know that his "Favorite Pex ecKipnoN" coBtaias Btae Cohosh root, Iadys Slipper root, Unicom root. Black Cohosh root and Golden Seal root. Every doctor knows that rach a pre scription is beneficial in the diseases of women and wben properly com pounded is certain to effect a core in nearly all cases when given a fair trial. Every bottle of the "Favorite Pre script! dx" which leaves Dr. Pierce's immense laboratories in Buffalo, 2i. Y., has plainly printed upon its wrapper all the ingredients of which it is com posed. Thus Dr. Pierce proves to the world his own confidence in the rem edy which for forty years has borne his name and which id known all through the United States and Canada, England, Australia, and in parts of South America, Africa and Asia, as a sovereign cure for those diseases which, unchecked, make oar women old be fore their time. It will be noticed that there is no alcohol in the "Favorite Prescrip tion." Dr. Pierce never believed in using alcohol In the preparation of his famous household remedies. For it, he substitutes chemically pare glycerine, which has wonderful properties for ex tracting the medicinal principles of roots and preserving them at their full strength, without any deleterious effect whatever. In favor of Dr. Pierce's medicines is the frank, confiding, open, honest statement of their full composition, giving every ingredient in plain En glish, without fear of successful criti cism and with confidence that the Sood sense of the afflicted will lead scm to appreciate this honorable man ner of confiding to them what they are taking into their stomachs when mak ing use of these medicines. Dr. Pierce feels that he can afford to take the afflicted into his fall confi dence and lay all the ingredients of his medicines freely before them be cause these ingredients are such as are endorsed and most strongly praised by eco res of the most eminent medical writers of all the several schools of practice as cures for .the diseases for wnicn uese meaicmes are recom mended.

It Is vnivertallu regarded as the tonic useful In all debilitated states." From the foregoing extracts it will be seen (hat Golden Seal root Is a very em cent curative agent la most of the weak nesses and ailments affecting the organs peculiarly feminine. ( Prof. John M. Scndder says of Lady's Slipper root (Cypripedium Pubescens): "This root is valuable In'all cases of err ous excitability or IrritatAlku unconnected with organic lesions, allaying the Irritabil ity, lessening any accompanying pain, producing a calm and cheerful condition of the body and mind, and consequently favoring mental tranquillity, or sleep. Hence it has been of service in hvticria. chorea, nervous headache, wakefulness and prostration in low f evert, and, indeed, In all cases of morbid Irritability of the nervous system, from functional deranger meni or renex irritation, it win be round very efficient In the nervowmcsa hyp ochondria, or mental depression accom panying certain forms of derangement of the digestive organs, which Is more gen erally met wtin among icmaies." Prof. John King, in the American DIs pensatory says of Black Cohosh root (Cimlclluga itacemosa): "This Is a very active, powerful and useful remedy, and appears to fulfill a great number of Indi cations. It possesses an undoubted In fluence over the nervous system. In small doses the appetite ana digestion are Improved. Plays a very important part In the therapeutics of Gynaecology (dis eases of women). In the painful con ditions, Its remedial action is fully dis played. By Its special affinity for the female organs, it Is an efficient agent and it is surpassed by no other drug. Being of greatest utility in irritative and conges tive conditions ot the appendages, char acterized bv tensive, dragging pains, resembling the palus of rheumatism.

" Dr. John Fyfe, of Saugatucfc, Conn., Editor Department of Therapeutics, in The Eclectic Review says of Unicorn root (Helonlas DIoIca)onc of the chief lngredl entsof Dr. Pierce's Favorife Prescription: "A remedy which invariably acts as a uterine invigorator and always favors a condition which makes for normal acti vity of the entire reproductive system, cannot fail to be of great usefulness and of the utmost Importance to the general practitioner of medicine. "In Unicorn root we have a medicament which more folly answers the above purposes than any-other drug with which I am acquainted. In the treatment of diseases peculiar to women it Is seldom that a case is seen which does not present some-Indication for this remedial agent," Weak Women Made Strong, Sick Women Made Well. F the above eight words, is summed up the great work for women which if accomplished by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. The record of cures effected by this remedy is without a parallel. Thousands of testimonials received from patients and from physicians who have tested it in the more aggravated and obstinate cases which bad baffled their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suf fering women. It is composed wholly of medicinal principles extracted from the roots of native, American forest plants, pure triple-refined glycerine of proper strength, being used instead of harmful alcohol both in extracting and preserving these medicinal principles. IT IS A POWERFUL INVIGORATING TONIC, imparting health and strength in particular to the organs distinctly ferninine. For weak and sickly women, who are n worn-out," "run-down,' or debilitated, especially for women who work in store, office, or school-room, who sit at the typewriter or sewing machine, or bear heavy household "burdens, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will prove a priceless benefit because of ita health-restoring and strength-giving power. AS A SOOTHING AND STRENGTHENING NERVINE, "Favorite Prescription is unequaled and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous excitability, irritability, nervous exhaustion, nervous prostration, neu ralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea, or St. Vitns's dance, and other distressing nervous symptoms commonly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the organs distinctly feminine. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mentalj anxiety and despondency. CURES OBSTINATE CASES.
