We've heard of a woman

We've heard of a woman
who said she'd walk five miles
to get a bottle of DR.. 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
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 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

Doctors and Population.

In England the proper ratio of doctors
to population is said to be one to 1900,
but by this rule there are 1,943 too many
doctors in London, and while 600 die

out. Competition is so great that in some
parts of the city doctors will see patient,
prescribe and supply medicine for six
