An observing man learns that woman
who Is physically weak and nervous and in
capable, is likely to be illnatured too. The
woman whose nerves are constantly
racked and dragged by facilitating drains
and Inflammation, cannot be genial COM
panion or happy wife and she is totally
untitled to be a mother.
These troubles prevail almost universally
among women largely because of careless
ness and neglect. There is no real need OF
them. DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
a positive specific for the weaknesses and
diseases OF the feminine organism.
It cures them radically and completely
1t heals, strengthens and purihes. It is the
only scientific remedy devised for this spe-
cial purpose by an educated, skilled physi-
clan. 1t Is the only medicine that makes
motherhood easy and absolutely safe.

IS a remarkable fact that have had such

At any rate, the shah had no scruples.
When running short, he would go TO the

be would select one, then, turning to the
proprietor, say, "Win you take me in as

water as a Medicine.

Z The human body is constantly undergo
ing tissue change. Wornout particles are
cast aside and eliminated from the system,
while tho new are ever being formed from
the INCEPTION of life TO its close.
; Water has tho power Of increasing these
tissue changes, which multiply the waste
products, but at the same time they are re-
newcd By its agency, giving rise TO in
creased appetite, which In turn provides
fresh nutriment Persons but little accus-
toned to drinking water are liable TO have
tho waste products formed faster than they
arc removed. Any obstruction to the free
working of natural laws at once produces
disease, which, If once firmly seated, re-
quires both time and money to cure.
People accustomed TO rise I'm the morn
ing weak and languid win find the cause
in the imperfect secretion of wastes, which
many times may be remedied by drinking
a full tunbler OF water before retiring.
This very materially assists in the process
iduring the night and leaves the Tissues
fresh and strong, ready for the active work
of the day
Hot water is one OF our best remedial
agents.
A hot bath on going to bed, even In the
hot nights Of, summer, is better relievel
Of insomnia than many drugs.
Inflamod parts will subside under the
continual poulticing Of real hot water.
Very hot water, as we all know, is ,
prompt checker of bleeding, and, besides
II it is clean, as it should be, it aids il
stcrilizing our wound.
A delicate stomach will nearly Away
gratefully receive a glass or more Of no
water. New York Ledger
