HW Is there anything
more VIII ole ONE
more beautiful, more completely pleasing
than womanly woman? Such woman
is even tempered, intelligent, strong and
healthy. Health really tells the whole
story Health means strong nerves and
strong body, and they go far toward
bringing good looks and ariability.
A woman worn and wearied by the
dragging weaknesses peculiar to her sex,

The wholesomeness of health is lacking.
The cheeks lack fullness, the eyes lack

Doctors have learned to locate nine

that ought above all others to be strong
and healthy.
Sensitive women shudder at the
thought of consulting a physician on
such matters. A natural feeling of mod

and subsequent stereotyped treatment by
"local applications on which most
doctors insist.

DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
cured thousands of severe cases OF "fe-

inflammation that is always present
Then it strengthens and invigorates the
whole body, particularly the organs dis

cures inflammation and liberation. and
