at is useless to take medicine. I shall feel
better tomorrow. Besides, need the money
to get that lovely new hat. My old one is such
fright, and people will look more at my bon
net than :hey will at my face. l will wait till
feel worse before spend any money for
medicine" The new bonnet is purchased and
fifty other feminine accessories in the form of
ribbons, laces, brooches, etc. Meanwhile the
lady's face becomes every day paler and chin
ner, and her body weaker, until disease has
gained SO firm a foothold in her system, that
the most thorough, and oftrimcs a long and
tedious, course of treatment is necessary to
restore her to health. Ladies, attend to your
health before you even think of apparel. A
fresh, blooming face in plain bonnet is much
handsomer and far more attractive to your
gentlemen friends, than painworn, diseased
face in the most elaborate and elegant hat
your milliner could devise. DR.. Piercc's Fa-
vorite Prescription is everywhere acknowl-
edged to be the standard remedy for fema lie
complaints and weaknesses. 1t is sold by
