Headache may be called wonan's
ailment. Some men suffer from It. But
almost all women have to endure its pain
with each recurring month. This fact
points at once to the intimate relation
between the health of the delicate
wornan1y organs, and the general health
of the whole body. DR.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription banishes headache by
banishing its cause. 1t cures the dis
eases which irritate the delicate womanly
organs, fret the nerves and waste the
strength. 1t increases the vitality and
builds up the nervous system. "Favorlte
Prescription" contains no opium, cocaine
or other narcotic.
