The bitter trail in a woman’s life is to be childless. Who can tell how hard the struggle may have been ere she learnt to resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab- sence of this link to bind marital life to- gether, the absence of this one pledge to mutual affection is a common disap- ointment. Many unfortunate couples come estranged thereby. Even if they do not drift apart, one may read the whole extent of their disappointment in the eyes of such a childless couple when they rest. on the children of others. To them the largest family does not seem too numerous. It will rather appear to them that those on whom this blessing has been most richly bestowed hardly value it suffi- ciently. In many cases of barrenness or child- lessness the obstacle to child-bearing is easily removed by the cure of weakness on the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce’s Fa- vorite Prescription has been the means of restoring health and fruitfulness to many & barren woman, to the great joy of the household. In other, but rare cases, the obstruction to the bearing of children has been found to be of a surgical character, but easily removable b{'ga.inless operative treatment at the Invalids’ Hotel and Sur- ical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., over which r. Pierce of the “Fayvorite Prescription” fame presi In all cases where chil- dren are desired and are absent, an effort should be made to find out the real cause, i it i lly so easily removed by t. rious weaknesses, displace- S, Tretro- ; leucor- to _disagreeable and and in all cases of nervous prostration and Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Preserip the most efficient remedy that can be used. It has to 'its credit of thousands of cures—more in n any other remedy put up for igh druggists, especially . for You do not I N rd alone for th of which the ' Prescription e composed have received the most positive endorsement from the leading medical writers on Materia Medica ol all the several schools of practice. All the ingredients are printed in plain Inglish on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so that if yon are an invalid woman and make use of this famous medicin» you know exactly what you are taking. Dr. Pierce takes his patients into his full con- fidence, which he can afford to do as_the formula after which the “Favorite Pre- seription” is made will bear the most careful examination. You do not have to experiment when taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, as with the many fake, Cheap John Med- icines that are sent out on trail, composed of cheap and often harmful ingredients. Dr. Pierce resorted to Nature’s Labo- ratory to get the ingredients for his ®*Ka- vorite Prescription,” believing that the indigenous, or native, medicinal roots of our country are endowed by Providence with the most marvelous curative powers. ‘The only ratiopal way to attempt to cure disease is by assisting the natural functions of the body, and to do that there is ngt:ilin\§ like Nature’s remedies which act”in Nature’s way, toning and invigorating the digestive organs, the liver, the stomach and bowels and the nervous system, which always suffers to a great extent in all the various derange- ments of the organs distinctly feminine. The mediciné of known composition is the-one to rely upon—the one that has @ retord of nearly forty years of cures—the ongdeyised and manufactured by d-fegu: larly graduated and experienced practi- tioner of medicine. By addressing Dr. R. Pierce, at Buffalo, N. Y., you may secure, free, a little phsmpi:let givin; uumerous extracts from many medical the ingredie writers of prominence, extolling the vart- ous ingredients which enter into Dr. Pierce’s Favorite rescription. It is worth looking over if you are a sufferer. Dr. Pierce does not, claim for his “Fa- vorite Prescription ” that it is a “cure-all.” It is recommended as a most perfect spe- cific for woman’s peculiar ailments. So uniform are the results which follow the use of this remarkable remedy, that it can be truly affirmed of “Favorite Pre- scription ” that it always helps and almost always cures. Ninety-eight per cent. of the women who give this medicine a fair and faithful trial are cured and remain cured. It is a powerful invigorating tonic, im- parting health and strength in particalar to the organs distinctly feminine. The local, womanly health is so intimately related to the general health that when diseases of the delicate womanly organs are cured the whole body gains in health and strength. F¥or weak and sickly women who are *worn-out,” “run-down™ or debilitated, esgecially for women who ‘work in store, oflice or schoolroom, who sit at the typewriter or sewing ma- chine, or bear heavy household burdens, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription has {;mven a priceless benefit because of its health - restoring and strength-giving powers. As a_soothing and strengthening nerv- ine. “Favorite Prescription” is un- equaled and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous itability, irritabil- ity. nervous exhaustion, nervous prostra- tion, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea, or St. Vitus’s dance, and other distressing nervous symptoms commonly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womanly organs. It induces refresh- ing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and despondency. «F ite Pre- 'avori Cures obstinate cases. scription ” is a positive cure for the most complicated and obstinate cases of leucor- rhea, excessive flowing. painful menstru- ation, unnatural suppressions and irregu- larities, prolapsus or falling of the pelvic organs, weak back, “female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflam- mation and ulceration, inflammation, more or less pain and tenderness over the lower abdomen accompanied with “in- ternal heat.” S Dr. Pierce’s medicines are made from harmless but efficient medicinal roots found growing in our American forests. The Indians knew of the marvelous eura- tive value of some-of these roots and im- parted that knowledge to some of the iriendlier whites, and gradually some of the more progressive physicians came to test and use them, and ever since they: have grown in favor by reason of their: superior curative virtues and their safe and harmless qualities. : Yourdruggists sell the *FAVORITE PRE- SCRIPTION ™ and also that famous ualtera- tive, blood purifier and stomach tonic, the “GOLDEN MEDICAL DISCOVERY.” Write to Dr. Pierce about your case, He is an. experienced é)hysici an and will treat your case as confidential and without charge for correspondence. = Address him at-the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N.
