" What a:difference
the suffering at
m
time
of childbirth
when Dr.- R. V. Tierce's medicines are used."
Mites Mrs.- Edmon Jacobs, .of Batgersville.
. ohnson Co.- Ind. "I bad not beard of Dr.
Pierce's medic-ines three years ago; when I
v-as confined, so had to suffer almost death.
lefore baby was born I could not be on
mj feet without two persons holding- me.
rne.oaoy was a
hoy,, weiphi nar
S "pounds, and
for " some weeks
"after his birth I
X suffered severe
bain. ' Last fall,
following the ad
vice of a neigh
- bor, my husband
: bought me Dr.
Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription,
which I. took
during the win
'ter, and in
March. I gave
birth to a baby
boy, weighing
10 lbs. I was
only In labor two
hours and was
on my feet with
out help until
Tlu advice oa neighbor thirty minutes
. . before baby was
born. He is now three months old and weighs
19 lbs. I know it was Br. Pierce's medicine
that saved me from suffering. I advise all
women to take Dr, Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion, also his Pleasant Pellets,' if necessary.'
"Following the advice of a neighbor.'
What a weight of confirmatory evidence
there is in those six words. The neighbor
had tried jthe " Favorite Prescription " and
recommended it. Mrs. Jacobs has also
tried it and proved its wonderful proper
ties and now she recommends it. Beside
such testimony as this its maker's words
are unimportant. Mrs. .Jacobs' experi
ence is a fact. Her neighbor's experience
is a fact. The written experiences of 500,
000 other women are facts. There is no
theory about it. There can be no ques
tion about it. In every neighborhood in
this broad land there are women who
have been cured by the "Favorite Pre
scription. " It has cured more cases of
female complaint than all other medicines
for women combined. It is the only med
icine of its kind invented by a skilled
specialist in medicine a regularly gradu
ated physician of more than forty years'
actual experience.
