Out on the water in the moonlight. A
more beautiful or romantic situation for
young man to tell the story of his love and
ask the young woman of his choice to share
his life cannot be imagined
The courtship of young couple may be
ever so romantic and their married life be
very unhappy. There are common sense
considerations outside of love that have
world to do with the making of married
happiness. One of the most important of
these considerations is the good health of
both parties to the sacred tie. The young
man who is in the incipient stages of CON
sumption commits a crime if he marries
before he is restored to health He con.
demns his wife to the life of a nurse and
his children to early death, or lives of sick
ness and suffering. Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery cures % per cent. of all
cases of consumption if taken in its earlier
stages. This is its record established dur
ing the past thirty years 1t is the great
blood-maker, flesh builder, nerve-tonic and
general restorative.
The young woman who suffers from weak
ness and disease of the delicate and inn
portant organs that make wifehood and
motherhood possible has no right to answer
Yes" to young mans proposal until she
is thoroughly restored to health in a WON.

ton prepares a woman for wifehood and
motherhood. II makes her strong, healthy
and vigorous where a woman most needs
