girls and factory girls and housewives suf-
fer from indigestion and constipation and
bilious troubles No wonder they are sub

rather that they can stand it as we'll as

But "a poor weak woman," as she is
termed will endure brsvely and patiently
agoncs which a strong man would give

Buffalo, NY. Occupying this position for
thirty years he has had a wider practical
experience in the treatment of womens
