cure for all diseases peculiar to women and is
so simple that any lady can use it and cure
herself in the privacy of her own home.
Why suffer with backache ? Why be des-
pondent Why have a tired languid feeling
when help is at hand ? Read what Mrs. j.
Miller, of Shamokin, says about the cure:
Five doctors treated me. l was getting
worse right along Three of them said
had a tumor and would have to go to hos
pital and be operated on. l was advised to
try Tait's Cure for diseases peculiar to
women. After three weeks the numerous
enlargement is entirely reduced and l feel
better than have felt in years. l heartily
recommend the cure to all ailing women.
