fri-m wounds from wounds iofllctel
by his own hand. In his hand wss

THE STORK BRINGS JOY
To the household biit
how about the mother?
Has she been lovfiil
during the weeks and
months preceding the
advent ?
Too many mothers
find it a time of fearful
anxiety because of the
knowledge that they
are "not in good health."
- Thev have allowed
weaknesses, pains and drains to accumu
late till the health is completely under
mined and they are "more than discour
aged," and all because they have been
misadvised by well-meaning friends or
maltreated by an inefficient doctor.
To all such here is the news that there
is a remedy that will heal and not hurt.
It was discovered forty years ago by
Dr. Pierce who searched Nature's labor
atory the earth, for the remedial agents
so liberally provided therein. He took
Lady's Slipper root, Black Cohosh root,
Unicorn root, Blue Cohosh root, Golden
Seal root, and by extracting, combining
and preserving, without the use of alco
hol, the glyceric extracts of these natural
remedies he has given to the world
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
which has to its credit the enviable and
unparalleled record of more than a half
million of cures In the last forty years.
"Only those who have given Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription a trial can appreciate
what a boon it is to suffering women," writes
Miss Vinna Seamore. ot 33 Elm St., Toronto,
Ont. "For two years I suffered intensely
from female weakness until life was a burden
tome. I had distressing; bearinjr-do'wn pains
so I could scarcely stand up. Had hot
flashes, was very despondent, weak, and ut
terly wretched. My physician gave me treat
ments but without success. 1 tried several
remedies but obtained no relief until I be
eran to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrin-
tion. I beiran immediately to improve, and
.in four months' time I was as well and strong
as ever."

A Habit to Be Encouraged.
The mother who has acquired the habit
of keeping on hand a bottle of Chamber
lain s Cough Kemedy, saves heraelt a great
amount of uneasiness and anxiety. Coughs,
jolds .and croup, to which children are sus
ceptible, are quickly cUred by its use. It
counteracts any tendency of a cold to result
in pneumonia, and if given as soon as the
hrst symptoms of croup appear, it win pre
vent the attack. -., This remedy contains
nothing injurious and mothers give it to lit
tle ones with a feeling of perfect security.
