Many times women call ON their family

another from liver or kidney disease, another
from nervous exhaustion, or prostration,

busy doctor, separate and distinct diseases,
Tor which he prescribes his pills and potions,
assuming them to no such, when, in reality,
then are all only symptoms caused by some
womb disorder. The physician, ignorant of
the cause Of suffering, encourages his practice
until large bills are made. The suffering
patient gets no better, but probably worse
by reason Of the delay, wrong treatment and
consequent complications. A proper medi-
cine, Ike DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
directed TO the cause would have entirely
removed the disease, thereby dispelling all
those distressing symptoms and institutinS
