all broken down, and prayed that I might
never have another; but have learned bet
ter and 1 am stronger now than l ever
was in my life.
"Women break down because they go
without the little extra help they need to
tide them over hard places. When a woman
expects to become a mother she ought to
be at her very best. But that is exactly the
time when most women feel weak and sick
and miserable. They grow melancholy and
anxious as the time approaches, and when
it comes they have no strength or stamina
of mind to go through the ordeal.
mo wonder they suffer and nearly die
sometimes, and are all broken down for
months or years. If they would take the
right care of themselves and strengthen
themselves in a natural way, they would
never suffer as they do, and, instead OF
dreading to have children, they would well
come them as a real blessing.
at Is simply q case of stitch in time
saves nine or, rather, nine hundred. A
little natural reinforcement at the time
when baby is expected will save months,
perhaps years, of suffering and, weakness.
At such times I always take DR.. Pierce S
Favorite Prescriptions; it invariably gives
me the extra strength and healthy nerve
power which woman needs to bring her
baby into the world safely and comfort
ably.
at is the most wonderful thing in the
world to build up woman's nervous sys-
tenn and strengthen the special organism
of motherhood. 1t gives you the recuper-
ative power that a woman cannot. get in
any other way. 1t carries you through the
nursing time beautifully; it helps you to
noursh the baby, and makes him hearty
and strong, too. My four younger children
are the sturdiest youngsters you ever saw;
this one grand Favorite Prescription has
made me the healthy, happy mother am.
II can tell you of a dozen women who
have had almost the same experience as
mine l saw letter written by Mrs. Jen-
ME j. Jackson, who lives at Fergussons
Wharf, in Ilse, of Wight county, Va. These
are her own words: 4 have enjoyed better
health since taking DR.. Pierces medicine
than 1 have since l have been married. !
can work hard all day and sleep well at
night. 1 was almost gone when l wrote
to DR.. Pierce, three years ago. / had utter
inc trouble very badly, but, thank the Lord,
/ am very well now. My doctor did not have
any faith in patent medicines but he says,
Something has done you good 1 triad
many different medicines and got no better
until tried DIR. Pierce's medicines. The
first bottle gave me ease. / have taken six
bottles of 'Favorite Prescription" and I
feel as we'll as ever in my life and can work
hard all day and do as much walking as
ever did. l know If l had not taken DR..
Pierce's medicines l could not have lived
long, as I was nothing but a skeleton. I
was so thin in flesh that it hurt me to lie
down. can never be thankful enough for
the trouble he took in advising me what to
do
"Another one I know about Is Mrs. V. A.
Davenport of Millboro, Bath county, Va.
She says: ON one occasion used Favor
ite Prescription" and Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery alternately six bottles
in all, after having had miscarriage and
severe hemorrhages. 1 was not able to
walk across the floor without holding on to
chair. My family doctor said 1 would
soon gain strength but it seemed to me
too long. was very low spirited and began
to think l would never get well, but the
bright thought came to ME that 1 would
take DR.. Pierce's medicines. BY the time
had used six bottles l was well and able to
do all the work for my family, and also
took in sewing. I can safely say that it
was the use of DR.. Perce's medicines that
built me up. Whenever 1 feel tired and
have an "all-gone" feeling from overwork
1 take one or two bottles of this valuable
medicine, and it gives me prompt relief
and / can go on with my household duties.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the
best "Woman's Friend" and tonic of all the
medicines l have ever tried. 1t saves doc
tors bills, and l thank God found relief
by it's use
IL think DR.. Pierce has done more toward
making healthy, happy women than any
other man in this country. He is an edu-
Gated doctor; he has had a lifetime of ex-
perience; his medicines are the only pro-
prietary remedies ] know of that are in
dorsed by physicians, and his book, "rhe
Common Sense Medical Adviser, is worth
