The expression was true, Women Jo understand other women and their They know what they need. Mrs, Annie Jenness Miller began this study early i life and has continued it ever since, She investigated the subject of appear- ance and the result was her book Physical Beauty and How to Ob- tain It.” She studied the subject of dressing and has done much to aid women in this important and delight- ful art. She studied the subject of Women’s Physical Health and as a result discovered what she believes to be the proper means of constantly preserving it. In writing upon this subject, she said: “It gives me pleasure to express my faith in the virtues of the well known discovery which is the only medicine Lever take or recommend. Six years agoI received the most pronounced benefit from its use at a time when suffering from mental overwork, and I have subsequently in my travels as a public lecturer recommended it to many people and personally know of several cases where it has succeeded when the doe- tors failed. This discovery was Warner's Safe Cure, ‘Although Iam now a perfectly well woman, I take several bottles of Safe Cure every spring, believing in the cunce of prevention rather than the necessity for the pound of cure, and in every instance Safe Cure has the effect to give new energy and vi-| tality to all my power Mrs. Miller's experience has been | |proven true in millions of other in- stences of women who were suffering and unhappy, and who by means of |staudard discovery are now in the | possession of perfect health and are kept so by a continued of this} grand preparation.
