It's the woman who ,oo,e't see and

And it's needless. There's a

It's DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-

general, as we'll as uterine, tonic

it's positive remedy. 1t improves
digestion, enriches the blood, dispels
aches and pains, melancholy and
nervousness, brings refreshing sleep,
and restores health and strength.
No other medicine for women is
guaranteed, as this is. If it fails to
give satisfaction, in any case, the
