II is only In America THAT women of all
classes receive THAT respect and considera-
tion which they are so unqusstionably en-
TITLED ITO by nature. In Vienna women d 6
cellars and carry hods; in Paris they clean
the shreats; in other European lands they
drudge in the fields for trifling Wage;
in America alone is their task coafinci to
dhe domestic circle and about the sacred
hearth of Apnes which they render so heer-
full and happy.
But this domestic life Of women has also
its penalties. for nowhere more than here
do they suffer SO much physically from the
sstnain OF household duties superadded to
those of the wife and mother. Many are
the weak and nervous women who would
sink under the burden If 1t were no. fsr

which is cure for all female ailments and
an inspiring tonic both for body and brain.
Thousands of women have found 1t a bless

physicians. The preparation can be had Of
all druggists. but IL 1T is out OF stock bot
