1t is certain, however. that the or.

We've heard of a woman
who said she'd walk five miles
to get a bottle of DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription if she
couldn't get it without. That
woman had tried it. And it's
a medicine which makes itself
felt In toning up the system
and correcting irregularities as
soon. as its use is begun.
Go to your drug store, pay
a dollar, get a bottle and try
it-try-a second, a third if
necessary. Before the third
ones been taken you'll know
that there's a remedy to help
you. Then you'll keep on
and a cure II come.
But if you shouldn't feel the
help, should be disappointed
in the results-you'll find a
guarantee printed on the bot
tle-wrapper that'll get your
money back for you.
How many women are there
who'd rather have the money
than health? And q" "Favorite
Prescription" produces health.
Wonder is that there's a
woman willing to suffer when
there's a guaranteed remedy
in the nearest drug store
