But 70 usually takes the skill Of the
specialist 10 determine the difference.
There are thousands of women just in
the condition of that watch. They are all
run down, but they make the mistake of
thinking that they are broken down, and
their condition is often aggravated by
their fears. IL often happens, however,
that the complex symptoms Of feminine
diseases appear in the patients judgment
just as critical as the stopped watch. II
is simply a run DOWN condition, and
this run down condition in woman means
that-the vital forces are about exhausted.
The woman unable to care for the family
or attend to her household duties is as in
capable of play as she is of work, is in
constant pain, and feels that life is about
10 end, and that she is completely broken
down. Many thousands of just such
women have come to DR.. r. Y. Pierce,
chief consulting physician Of the Invaiids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, n.
y. DR. Pierce is a specialist in the dis
eases of women and his more than thirty
years experience has enabled him TO say
to many a suffering woman: You are not
broken down. You are just run down.
Your whole life will run on again in its
divinely appointed way when the main
spring which dominates il is once more
regulated and enabled to exercise Its in
kerent and proper function"
The sufferings borne by women in
which men have no part OF lot, and Of
the pains and pangs of which they are
ignorant, are chiefly related TO those
organs which are distinctiYely feminine.
Thus the run down condition of wo-
man can oft-times be traced to the ir-
regular periods which beginning in maid
enhood culminate in the unpleasant and
facilitating drains Of Wifehood. Then
come the strain and drain of frequently
repeated motherhood, and with ii, ulcera-
tions infiammations, displacements of
internal organs and bearing down pains.
The nerve force has almost entirely Ge-
parted. There is no more conjugal hap
piness and no more courage to face the
obligations of maternity. The desponding
mind Of the prospective mother keeps
fearful watch on the dial which marks
off the months and the days She shrinks
from her coming anguish. The little NE
knit I'D with hers is already being blight
ed by her nervousness and gloomy fore
bodings, and surely handicapped in the
race of life This condition has been met
in a wonderful way by DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription. II quickly allays in
dammations. cures ulcerations, and builds
M the nerve centers The wife instead
of nervously pacing the house wringlng
her hands In dread of the approaching
dav Of pain now sits and sews IN happy
preparation. her fingers sometimes falhns
idly to her lap, as she drifts into smlllng
reVerie and already imagines the tug OF
the tiny fingers and the pressure OF the
tender lips upon her bosom, swelling Win
motherly pride and happiness.
Such a transformation seems wonderful.
II is wonderful Yet 1t is as true as ii is
wonderful. A half million of women have
testified 10 these facts; women who have
been freed from pain and suffering and
been restored TO the fun measure of en-
tovment which belongs TO the happy
duties of wife and mother. Some few OF
these women tell their story in the follow
ing testimonials:
