But there is less jest than earnest in the _ state- ment. It zs trying to be on the feet all day, to be reaching and stooping hour after hour from morn until night. And that 1s a very meager outline of a busi- ness woman’s day. With many such women the ordinary strain of labor is intensified and aggravated by a diseased condition of the delicate organs, and they become victims of that terrible backache, or blinding headache, which is so common among business women, If you are bearing this burden, bear it no longer. For the backache, head- ache, nervousness and weakness which spring from a diseased condition of the womanly organs there is a sure cure in Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. Half a million women have been per- fectly and permanently cured by this wonderful medicine. & ““My niece was troubled with female weakness for about four years before I asked for your advice,’’ writes Mr. J. W. McGregor, of 62d St and Princeton Ave., s. “You advised her to e Dr. Pie she did faithfully for nine months, an we m owledge to you thal e is a well . We cannot thank you enough for the cure.” s Sick women can consult Dr. Pierce by letter frze. Address, Buffalo, N. ¥. BUTLER. MISSOURI, ‘THURSDAY, |AGUINALDO TO.
