4 STRONG, HEALTHY WOMAN
instead of a tired and ailing one |!
Sounds like a miracle, doesn't it?
But it isn't. It's only the ordinary,
everyday work of DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription just the work
that it was made for.
It's woman's medicine, carefully
compounded for her by an expert
enced physician, and adapted to her
delicate organization. It makes
weak women strong, suffering wo-
men well. It's an invigorating, re-
storative tonic, a soothing and brac-
ing nervine, and a certain cure for
all the functional arrangements,
painful disorders or chronic weak
nesses peculiar to the sex. For
liberation, displacements, bearing
down sensations, " female COM
plants" of every kind, it's never.
failing remedy.
And, among all the medicines that
claim to help women, "Favorite
Prescription" is the only one that's
guaranteed to do what is promised
for it. If it doesn't benefit or cure,
in any case, you have your money
back.
Is something else, that may pay
the dealer better, likely to be "just
as good" FOR you? ss.s..s..

considerable talk. and the leaders
of the colony and the editors of the three
morning papers published In the Italian

against the Mayor. They allege that he is
so completely under the influence of Arch
bIehop Corrigan that he has refused the
courtesy asked for by the celebration COM
mlttee in order to find favor in the prelate's
eyes.
The Mayor denies all this. and says that
he refused on the ground tnat it was
against the local ordinances to display the
flag of any monarchy on the City Hall.
He added that be refused the Russians the
could give no valid reason why the flag of
Greece was permitted TO be displayed from
the hall when the Greeks were holding n
celebration. He further stated that Arch
bishop Corrigan wes not consulted In the
matter at oil.
