consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel

All the dangers of motherhood and most

banished by the use of this rare Prescrip-
ton" 1t gives elastic strength and true
healthful vitality to the special organs and
nerve centres involved in motherhood.
This healthful condition is transmitted to

markable properties with a full account of
