We refer to that boon to weak, nervous, suffering women known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Dr- John Fyfe one cf the Editorial Staff of. Eclectic Medical Review says of Unicorn root (llcionias Dioica) which Is ono of the chief ingredients of the "Fa vorite Proscription " : ?A rw..."ij- v:;, r-.ii lrTtrriably acts as a uter ine iuviiu'sH': tiifikss for normal ac tivity of e:i;ir ivyrodactlve system." lie coRtisu; m iirioriius we nave a medica ment vjii.-ii m-jre answers the above purposes tfutn any oilier drug ivith which I am acquainted, in the treatment of diseases pe culiar to women it Is seldom that a case is seen which loes not present some indication for this remetiial asent." Dr. Fyfe further says: "The following are among the leading iadicationa for Helonias (Unicorn root). Pnin or aching In the back, with leucorrhoea; atonic (weak) conditions of the reproductive organs of women, mental depression and ir ritability, associated with chronic diseases of the reproductive organs of women, constant sensation of heat in the region of tho kid neys: menorriiasia (Hooding-), due to a weak ened condltiou ot the reproductive system; amenorrhuea (suppressed or absent monthly periods ), arising Irom or accompanying an abnormal condition of the digestive organs and anaiiaic (thin blood) habit; dragging sensations in the extreme lower part of the abdomen." If more or less of the above symptoms are present, no invalid woman can do better than tako Dr. Pierce's Favorito Prescription, one of the lcadinginsTet'i ents of vrhich is Unicorn root, or Ilelonias. and tho mudical properties of which it most faithfully represents.
