thing which she fears, yet caunot under

passed and thrown its cold shadow on her.
DOGGED BY DISEASE.
The steps of every woman are dogged
by disease. And one may well shudder
when the shadow of this evil presence
falls across the life. Disease can steal
the color from a woman's cheeks, the
brightness from her eyes. It can make
her life creep along on broken wing,
sunless and songless. It can wither
every flower of happiness in the garden
of girlhood and blast every joy of wife
or mother. It is doing such things as
these cons', int1 y. The woman who does
not suffer from womanly disease is the
exception, not the rale'. The woman
who does not know the meaning of
periodic pai- headache, backache and
female weakness, is a wonder to the
majority of er sex.
It is « g M thing for women thst
though disc -e may grasp them it cannot
hold them -■ ■'-.ey take rbe right means
to regain the lost liberty of health.
Hundreds of thousands of women who
were once fast in tbe clutch of disease,
bear witness that D-. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription freed them from disease, and
give them perfect and pertrauent health.
"A little over a year ago I wrote tc

Was so weak I could liaidly silk across
my room. Could not sit up only just s
little while at a time. My husband got
me some of Dr. Pierce’s medicine and I
began its use. Before I had taken two
bottles I was able to help do my work.
I used three bottles in all and it cured
me. Now I do all my housework. It is
the best medicine I ever used.”
IT WnX CURB YOU TOO.
If you are suffering from any form of
womanly disease which medicine can
cure, you can use "Favorite Prescrip
tion ” with a practical certainty that you
will be cured. It has cured many women
for whom physicians had
said no cure was possible,
and many others who were
told they could not be
cured without an opera
tion. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription makes weak
women strong and sick
women well.
It estab
lishes regularity, dries
weakening drains, heals in
flammation and ulceration,
and cures female weakness.
It is the best tonic and
nervine for weak, run
down women, tranquilizing
the nerves, encouraging the
appetite and inducing re-j
