Meat is the conquering aoldier'i

which supplies him with energy
and force, civea huu the power

and fiber the element that make
arinie brave, courageous and vie
torious. Meat-eaters rule the worl
Ixith in ieaee and war. For this
reason the country whose meat-
making industry has assumed such
l.ir.'e nrouortiona as that of the
United States seems not only se
fiirt from successlul invasion, but
is in position to profit by wars be
tweeu foreign powers. America is
a Iar;e producer of meat and oiler

may see fit to feed soldiers or the

I gladly endorse your medicine.
Doctor I'ierce's Favorite Prescription
restores weak and sick women to sound
health, by curinfr the local womanly dis
eases which are (renrally responsible for
the failure of the general health. A wom
an's entire beinjf is centered in her wom
anly nature. When the delicate womanly
organism is attacked by disease; when
there is irregularity or a disagreeable drain;
when inflammation burns and ulcers gnaw -the
general health will reflect the progress
of disease, in increasing weakness, nerv
ousness, backache, headache, loss of appe
tite and sleeplessness.
So sure of it is the World'a Dispensary
Medical Association, of Buffalo, N. Y., pro
prietors of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion, that they offer $500 reward for women
who cannot be cured of teucorrhea, Fe
in' weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling- of
Womb. All they ask is a fair and reasona
ble trial of their means of cure.
