II Ia only fair to say that Il Is not the
man that women write to, but the doctor.
One of the remarkable features OF this
correspondence Is that years after cure
has been effected, grateful women con-
tinue towrite TO DR., Pierce, being thank.
fl for health and for the kind ana
iatherly advice, which was blended with
the physician's counsel, and which was
so helpful in preserving the health when
regained. ~
The offer Of a free consultation by let
ter is extended by DIR, Pierce to every
sick and ailing woman, Every letter
received Is read In private, answered in
private and It's contents treated as a sa,
cred confidence, To exclude any third
party from the correspondence, all
