needs and requirements of the body.
All its effort was to guide the heart and
mind. The body might stumble along
anyhow, and it generally did.
+ Many a sweet-faced, modest minded
young girl has had her first doubts of
the goodness of Providence come in
through the door of physical suffering.
"Why must ! suffer in this way?" she
asks wWhy does my back ache, my head
throb and MY side pain, so that l am
fain to creep away into a darkened
room and foreeo the pleasures which
belong to my season of ife?"
NO ANSWER COMES
as a rule to these questions. The young
woman looks around and sees scores Of
similar sufferers. She is told it is part
OF the burden laid upon women, and she
shapes her shoulders to her heavy load.
This is all mistake. Proper train
ing, proper physical care would many
times prevent these miserable condi-
tons. But in any case, however dis
tressing the present condition, it can be
cured by the use of DR.. Picrce's Favor
tie Prescription, if it is disease durable
by medicine.

Old-iaShiOned Training
It's Strong and Weak Points.

The strong point of the old.fashioned
training Vas the stress laid upon moral
ity and virue. vBe good and you'll
be happy" was the common precept set
before the growing child. But as the
girl grew up to maidenhood she was
often sorely puzzled to reconcile those
past teachings with her present condi-
ton. She was good. Her soul was
pure as the lilies of her garden. Her
heart was undehled. And yet she was
desperately unhappy by reason of physi-
cal ailments common to women.
This was the weak side of old
fashioned training: 1t ignored the
