r HAVE TESTED THESE DROPS
Il in my own practice, over ten years,
and do not hesitate to say that nothing
has been developed by medical research
that acts SO powerfully, positively, and
harmlessly, in cases of female irregularity,
as does this medicine. In all recent cases
1t never falls, while thousands who have
been long sufferers are indebted to it for
the boon of health to-day.
Although so powerful and positive, they
are perfectly harmless, and may be used at
all times, except when specially forbidden
in the instructions.
To all who suffer from any irregrlarity
painful, difficult, excessive, offensive or
INSTRUCTED menstEuation, Leucorrhoea, or
the train of diseases that follow, would
say, try bottle of DIR. Lyons French
Periodical Drops. Being a fluid prepare
ton, their action is more direct and posi-
tive than any pills or powders. Explicit

pany each bottle. as
