weakening alterations, inhammations,
itchings, irritations, relaxatioDs, dis
placements, pains ard irregularities
peculiar to females. Hence the Cuti'
cura remedies have wonderful infiu-
cnce in restoring health, strength and
beauty to weary women, who have
been prcmaturely aged and invalided
by these distressing ailments, as well as
such sympathetic affections as anemia,
chlorosis, hysteria, nervousness ana
debility. =.
Women from the Tcry first have fully
appreciated the purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
curt, the absolute safety and great
economy which bave made the Cuticura

which readily suggest themselves, as
well as for all the purposes of the toilet,
