A Laughable Mistake.

Two ladies entered book store
recently and the younger asked the
clerk for a book called "Favorite
Prescription" The puzzled attend
ant was unable to comply with her
request, and she left the store dis
appointed Inquiry elected the
fact that she had overheard a CON
yersatiou between two literary la
dies III which "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" was mentioned with extrava-
giant praise, and had jumped to the
conclusion that it was a book. She
now knows that DR., Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription is a sovereign cure
for the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to women, for she has been
cured by its use.
1t is the only medicine of its class,
sold by druggists, under a positive
guarantee that it will cure in all
cases of disease for which it is rec
commended, or money paid for it
will be promptly refndded.
