GOOD Manners

Depend much upon good health.
If the women of to-day lose in
comparison with the women of
Washington's day in the matter
of fine manners, it may be i'll no
small part due to the fact that
most women suffer from wom-
anly diseases. 1t is very hard
to be polite and courteous, suave
of manner and smooth of speech,
when pain is thrusting its darts
into the body.
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton cures the womanly diseases
which make women nervous and
irritable. 1t establishes regular
ity, dries weakening drains, heals
inflammation and liberation and
cures female weakness. 1t cures
headache, hackache, nervousness,
sleeplessness and other ills which
are the result of womanly disease.
