A HARD ROW And a long pull describes the pathway of a woman afflicted with female weak ness unless she is under the care of a doctor who has had successful experience in the treatment of such cases or else has found the right remedy which can be safely used independently of the doctor. Forty years ago. Dr. R. V. Pierce found that women were being grossly mal treatedmainly through ignorance and carelessness, and he determined to devote himself to study and research till he found the real cause of their suffering and a proper remedy for it. He found it, and dug from Nature's Laboratory, the earth, A ature's remedies lor woman s weaknesses ana ailments. He found in Lady's Slipper root, Black Cohosh root. Unicorn root, Blue Cohosh root and Golden Seal root, the required ingredients. The remedial virtues of these he ex tracted, combined and preserved by his own peculiar non-alcoholic, glyceric pro cesses, and the compound is now known the world over, as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. "The wearing of corsets too tight seemed to have brought on an abdominal pressure, weakening the ligaments and resulting in displacement, which troubled me until 1 was not fit to walk, and at times could hardly stand," writes Mrs. Beverly Sitgreaves. of 124 Fulton St.. San Francisco. Cal. " A neighbor advised me to try Dr. Pierce's Faworite Pre scription. Before the first bottle was used I felt much better. Improvement went steadily on, and within four months I was like a new and well woman once mora 1 am now perfectly well and strong, and ex tremely grateful to you for your blessed remedy a boon to sick women."
