That old copybook maxim finds its
most forceful application in the waste OF
vitality which is called "burning the
candle at both ends" A woman is
often tempted beyond her strength by
domestic or social demands. Some day
she awakens from this waste of strength
to the woeful want of it. She has be-
come weak, nervous and miserable.
For weak, nervous, rundown women,
there is no better tonic and nervlne than
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t
restores the appetite, quiets the nerves
and gives refreshing sleep. 1t cures
local diseases peculiarly womanly which
undermine the general health. 1t makes
weak women strong, sick women well.
