feminine road to medical knowledge.
If a woman understands disease, she
understands it not as a woman but as
a physician. Mere sympathy wont re-
lieve pain or cure disease. The need is
of competent medical advice AS far
as known there is no qualified woman
physician connected with any proprie-
tary medicine, and therefore no woman
competent TO give medical advice 1t is
certain that no one else can offer as
does DR.. r. V. Pierce the free benefit
of thirty years Of special study of wo-
mans diseases, supported by record
of more than half million cases
treated with ninety eight per cent. Of
cures.
Fancy a man switching a train from
the safe track just to make a dime out
of the catastrophe! It's something in
that same line when a dealer for the
sake of a dime of extra profit, or per-
haps less, tries to switch a customer
from the purchase of a medicine of rep
utation and record, to a mere imita-
ton or substitute. A Just as good"
preparation acknowledges in that very
phrase that it is a mere shadow of
success. Don't throw away the sub
stance for a shadow. Insist on the real
thing and the right thing-Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription.
About the last place you'd look for
common sense would be in a medi-
cal work. For the most part these
works ''darken counsel by words with
out knowledge" 1t is one of the
crowning features of DR.. Pierce's Com
mon Sense Medical Adviser, that it is
all that it's name implies. All that and
vastly more, for the bare title Of
"Shakespeare's Plays" no more eX-
presses the wonder of Shat master mind
which like an ocean touched every
shore, embraced all fields of knowledge
and all realms of fancy, than the bare
title of DR.. Pierce's great work eX-
presses the extent of the information,
the value of the knowledge contained
in it's 1908 pages. This book is sent alb
solutely free on receipt of stamps to
pay cost of mailing only. Send p one
cent stamps for the paper bound edl-
tion, or 81 stamps for the handsome

There's no satisfying some people,
especially when the pocket book is
touched That is what makes the main
unhappiness of many a good wife. She
works hard, she devotes herself to hus-
band and family. But when she wants
dollar she has to beg for it, and prob
ably be asked why, where's that
dollar l gave you the other day?" The
other day" is weeks ago. 1t would
serve the man right to let him find an
empty table at dinner time and when
he asked for dinner ask him. Where's s
the dinner you had yesterday" But
the wife doesn't do that. She tries to
manage along" And this is not so
bad when it's only a question of a new
gown or hat. But when it's a question
of health, 1t is very different
1t Is undoubtedly the case that many
a woman let's little ailments grow to
great diseases, sooner than ask her
husband to pay a doctors fee The hus-
band is not unkind at heart. If he
knew there was anything wrong he'd be
the first to propose a doctor. But he
doesn't note the slow change In his
wife's appearance and he doesn't feel
the pains and aches which makes the
udy WOTk ufuuSelS.
1t is under circumstances such as
these that women appreciate the offer
of DR.. r. V. Pierce, of a consultation
by letter free. DR.. Pierce is not only
a physician He is a specialist in wom-
ans diseases. For more than thirty
years as chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti-
tute, at Buffalo, n. Y, he has made dis
eases peculiar to women an especial
study. He has treated more than half
a million of cases, anl ninety-eight out
of every hundred treated have been
positively cured. Thousands Of cases
have been reached by what so many
have called that God-send to women" "
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It's
efficacy in stopping debilitating and Of
fensive drains, curing liberation, in
flammation, and bearing down pains is
testified to by thousands of grateful
women, who have consulted DR., Pierce
as to their health and ailments.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and was
then able to take care of my house.
My health is better than II has been for
three years. | do not know how to
thank you for the kind advice you gave
so cheerfully."
There's an advantage in this consult
alton by letter which the modesty of
women is quick to see and take ad-
vantage of. 1t does away with the
indeliCate questionings, the offensive
examinations and local treatments, of
the average physician, It's an entirely
private consultation. The letter is read
as privately as it is written. Its con-
tents are held as absolutely sacred
The answer is sent in a perfectly plain
envelope bearing upon it no printing
or advertising TO show where it comes
from. Every woman can write freely
frankly and fearlessy, knowing that
she will receive friendly as well as
medical advice from the most compe-
tent authority,
Sometimes a natural doubt arises as
to how DR., r. V. Pierce can be so sure
of succeeding where others fail. But
the fact is easy to explain. There was
a woman once celebrated for hef
angus lohu. a lTleHp went 10 nee
and begged the recipe. 1t was given
her with the most careful cautions as
TO making and baking, The friend went
home delighted, She started right Off
to make a cake, She measured, she
weighed, she mixed. she tasted. But the
cake came out of the oven a Hat fail
ure, She tried again. No better result.
Then she said the woman had deceived
her in the recipe. But the woman
took the same recipe and made a cake
that melted in the mouth. Now why
couldn't the friend make that cake Just
as well as the woman that gave the
recipe? Because the woman couldn't
give the friend with the recipe the skill,
and experience that went into her sue
cess.
That explains DR.. Pierces success.
The same sources of knowledge are
open to any physician. But with the
same facilities that DR.. Pierce has
they fail. because they lack the expert

We have from time to time through
this column made mention of the fact
that Peckville capitalists were inter-
ested in prospecting for coal near Win
chester, Va, where they had purchased
some ten thousand acres of land that
was supposed to be coal producing.
Morton II. Harloe, a former resident
of Winchester, who has been making
his home here for several years past,
early last spring spent several weeks
prospecting near Winchester. The re-
suit of his labors We're very promising.
Later Messrs. w. S. Bloes. Frank Rice
and several other interested parties
journeyed 10 Winchester and proceeded
10 open up drift. A nine-foot vein of
coal was found. These gentlemen hur-
ried nome and proceeded at once to
organize a company and elect officers
so that they could at once purchase the
necessary machinery and erect a
breaker to prept the coal for mar
ket. On Thursday last a meeting of
the stockholders was held at this place
and IL was decided that the company
should be known as the II. b. r. Coal
and iron company of Virginia. The
DiIicers elected are: President. w. E.

There is no medicine to compare with
"Favorite Prescription" in it's wonder
full work for women. In young women
1t corrects the Irregularities which are
so fruitful of latter evils. 1t dries up
the unhealthy and unpleasant drains to
which so many women owe a life of
misery. 1t heals Inflammation and ul'
ceration and cures female troubles 1t
gives vigor and elasticity to the organs
peculiarly feminine. 1t makes mother
hood a joy by robbing its preceding
days Of all anxiety, foreboding and
discomfort; by making the baby's ad-
vent natural and therefore easy and al
most painless, and by an ample lacteal
provision by which the nursing mother
has constant JOY.
