A glance at the published Ingredients on each bottle wrapper, will show that it Is made wholly from native, American, medicinal roots, that it contains no poi sonous or habit-forming drugs, no nar cotics and no alcohol—pure, triple-refined glycerine, of proper strength being used Instead of the commonly employed alco hol, both for extracting and preserving the active medicinal properties found in the roots of the American forest plants employed. It is the only medicine for women's pecular diseases, sold by drug gists, that does not contain a large per centage of alcohol, which is in the long run so harmful to woman’s delicate, nerv ous system. Now, glycerine is peifectly harmless, and serves a valuable purpose by possessing intrinsic value all Its own, and besides it enhances the curative effect of the other ingredients entering Into the "Favorite Prescription."
