Bad management keeps more people

look ahead and plan ahead so that
when favorable opportunity presents
itself he is ready to take advantage

save much expense ana valuable time.

BOIL YOUR PEAS!

Why not? Everybody has some bur-

There's a special application of this

which are often accepted as irremedi-

notably so with respect to those forms

MEN YOU CAN COUNT ON.

That's just the plan DR.. Pierce has
followed in gathering his staff. Its
members are picked physicians, gradu-
ates of medical colleges, foreign and
American. Each of these physicians
has his speciality. Each of them goes as
straight and as sure to the mark of dis
ease as the rifleman does to the bulls
eye. They are physicians absolutely
to be counted on and relied upon in
extremity.
This explanation, of course. robs DR..
Pierce's success of all attributes of the
marvellous. 1t is Just like any other
success, due to skill, study and ability.
In giving to women that great remedy.
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription all
the knowledge Of diseases peculiar to
women attained in long years of ex-
perience has been brought into play.
Perhaps no greater voucher for DR..
Pierce's ability could be offered than
this very medicine which women them
selves have named.

and which cures every disease of the
female organs except cancer and tum-
or. In the cures of eXtra-Serious cases
performed by this remedy, much
doubtless is due to the extra and spe-
cial hygenic and medical advice given
free by DR.. Pierce to women consulting
him by letter
Any sick or ailing woman can consult
Dr. Pierce by letter absolutely free of
charge, and receive the benefit of his
opinion and advice. Every letter re-
ceived is regarded as a sacred conf
dence. 1t is read in private, answered
in private, and the reply sent in a
private envelope, closely sealed and
bearing on it no printing or advertis-
ing matter whatever. There are many
imitators Of DIR. Pierce's methods. In
some cases women are invited to write
to q woman" on the ground that "a
woman best understands a woman's
needs" 1t is often overlooked by those
who read this offer that the woman"
does not claim to be physician. There

THOUSANDS OF WOMEN.

nave IOr tnree years
THOUSANDS OF WOMEN.
This is only one case of thousands in
which sick and aillng women have
dated a new existence from the day
when, like Mrs. Craft, they wrote to
DR.. Pierce"
DR.. Pierce's treatment lays stress
upon the study of the organization Of
THE INDIVIDUAL WOMAN
to be treated, and it is doubtless to this
careful study of the individual and the
adaptation of treatment to the condi-
ton and organization Of each woman
treated, which have enabled DIR. Pierce
and his associate staff to achieve such
marked success and cure where local
doctors failed.
The case of Mrs. ii. A. Alsbrook, of
Austin, Lonoke Co., Ark, is case In
point. She writes: After five months
of great suffering ! write this for the
benefit of other sufferers from the same
afIliction. / doctored with our family
physician without any good result, so
my husband urged me to try DR..
Pierce's medicines-which l did with
wonderful results. / am completely
cured. I took four bottles of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, four of
his Golden Medical Discovery and two
walls of his Pleasant Pellets I trust
your success will increase, and l thank
God for giving you wisdom and knowl-
edge, and guiding you in making these
medicines"
In these successes the skill must also
be taken into account. not the skill of
DR.. Pierce alone but the skill of each
member of his staff of nearly score
of physicians associated with him. Ev-
cry company in every regiment in the
army has men who excel as marksmen.
They can hit the bullseye every time
they fire. But there's only one or two
such men in a company. The rest fire,
hit or miss. They could not be depend
ed on in emergency to shoot sure and
straight. But suppose the commanding
officer in an army should pick out all
these men and make a separate regl-
ment of them. Every man sure shot.
Every man absolutely to be counted on.
No ordinary regiment could compete
with these picked men for a minute.
