REMOVE THE CAUSE.

Its no use To treat the head or the
back or the heart. The center Of the
diseased condition lies in those delicate
womanly organs. and through them
the whole body becomes sympathetical-
y affected. But one practical eX-
ample is worth a volume of theory.
| Here is the actual experience of one
woman.
