| family. She must not be craven when
the whoop of the Indian warned of a
dreadful danger. She must stand by
her husband, gun in hand.
How many women of to-day could
undertake wifehood under such condi-
tions2 Few indeed. Not because the
modern American woman lacks cour-
age, but because she lacks as rule the
physical health which is the indispensa-
bic qualification for a life such as was
lived by the women of the past
That is why good woman may be
bad wife. Virtue and goodness are e1-
cellent things in women, but to guide
house and bear children demands above
all sound physical health.
WOMEN coNvIcTs.
To a great number of women the
house they live in is almost on par
with prison. 1t is prison-like in the
monotonous regularity Of daily duties
prison-like in the absence of all pleasure
In what is done or Joy in the doing.
And the reason Is to be found in
womanly ill-health. Few women realize
how intimately the general health is re-
lated TO the health of the delicate
womanly organs. A woman may suffer
with heart 'trouble," disorders of kid
neys, liver or stomach, or with nervous
prostration as result of diseased con-
dition of the womanly organism. Many
such women doctor for years for
various diseases and wonder why they
don't get better. They can't get better
until the womanly organism is entirely
cured of its diseases.
This is not theory. 1t is statement
OF simple facts founded upon the testi-
mony of hundreds OF thousands of
women who have been cured of woman
ly diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. They had been
just dragging around" for years, with
throbbing heads and aching backs, nerv-
GUS, dyspeptic, miserable, The once
fresh colored cheeks had grown sallow,
the eyes were dull, the body had lost
its plumpness. They had in numerous
instances tried many doctors and medi-
