that same beautiful young wife might
have seen the forecast of her own face
and form, stripped alike OF grace and
beauty. as the sequel of a few brief
years of married life. But of the suf-
fering which attended such physical
decay no mirror could give hint.
. ..r1,s true true II. It's pity
Phvsiologically considered, mar
riage is the crown OF life. However
beautiful the tree which stands in the
orchard, if it bears no fruit it is only
an imperfect example of a tree. How
ever beautiful a woman, unless she
fulills the law OF her nature, in mar
rage and in maternity, her life is inn
perfect Every real woman feels this,
and vet wonders why nature should
lay such heavy burdens on the wife
and mother
THE wOMAN'S WHY
Why should woman in fulfilling
her manifest destiny lose the beauty
which is also Natures gift? Why
should she be subject to such aches
and pains as wear the nerves and
waste the body?
Natures answer to such questions
is that there is no why" for the suf-
ferings OF the ma Ority of women,
that there is no reason in nature why
they should not go through marriage
and motherhood and retain their
health and beauty; that such a condi
ton of things as obtains among wO-
men is not natural, but unnatural
All that is needed is that the woman
joins hands with Nature to cast off
the conditions which undermine her
health and dishgure her beauty. Let
1t be understood that the normal and
natural condition OF the body is one
of health, and that in this condition
OF health every physical function is
dischargedwith comfort and pleasure
Then. remember, that every disease
which establishes itself in any organ
is an usurper, an interloper, and has
no rights in or claims on the BODY
Against every such usurper Nature
wages a continual warfare If she
does not overcome and drive out the
alien and evil power OF disease it is
only because the victim of this op-
preston is entirely passive and fails
to give the needed assistance.
Women who have realized these
facts, who have joined forces with
Nature against disease, have found in
Doctor Pierce's'Favorite Prescription
preparation fitted to the exact needs
OF Nature in this struggle against dis
ease. They have we'll named it, that
GOd-send to women" for it has done
for them what no medicine heretofore
has been able to dot has absolutely

fed upon their vitality like some
ghoul or vampire. The range OF
cures covered by 'Favorite Prescrip-
ton" includes every form of disease
which attacks the womanly organs,
excepting only cancerous diseases

ments it has perfectly and perma-
nently cured
