The Crisis Comes io
Women at the Turn
Ing Point In Lite.
A woman's life is very much like a
river. It begins in the little rivulet of
girlhood, but grows broader and deeper
in womanhood, with many a rock,
threatening wreck. At last as mid
dle life is approached a look ahead
shows the river broadened out into a
calm and placid lake, but before the
lake is reached there are rapids to lie
run, which threaten peril and misfort
une. That calm and placid lake is the
well-earned st of wife and mother after
years of care. The rapids that lead from
the river to the lake mark the period
known as change of life. There are few
women who pass this period without
sickness more or less serious. Sotne-
times this change of life becomes a sail

weakens, the mind fails, and in the very

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
the best friend of women st every crit
ical period of life. It enables the maiden
to pass through the first chsnge of life
without the lassitude, weakness and
misery often experienced. It establishes
regularity, dries unhealthy drains, heals
inflammation and ulceration, and cures
female weakness. It is the best prepara
tive for maternity, giving the mother
abundant vigor and vitality, and making
the baby's sdvent practically painless.
It is a purely vegetable preparation, con
taining no alcohol, neither opium, cocaitie
or any other narcotic. It cannot dis
agree with the most feeble constitution.
