ONE OF DIR. CUPID'S PRESCRIPTIONS.

That Love sometimes cures disease is a
fact that has recently been called to the
attention of the public by a prominent
physician and college professor. In some
nervous diseases of women, such as hys-
terra, this physician gives instances where
women were put in a pleasant frame of
mind, were made happy by falling in love,
and in consequence were cured of their
nervous troubles-the weak, nervous sys-
tenn toned and stimulated by little DR..
Cupid became strong and vigorous, al
most without their knowledge. Many a
woman is nervous and irritable, feels drag
ged down and worn out for no reason that
she can think of. She may be ever so
much in love, but DR.. Cupid fails to cure
her. In ninety nine per cent. of these
cases It is the woman1y organism which
requires attention; the weak back, dizzy
spells and black circles about the eyes, are
only symptoms. Go to the source of the
trouble and correct the irregularities, the
drains on the womanly system and the
other symptoms disappear. So sure of it
is the Worlds DispeusaTy Medical Associa-
ton, proprietors of DR.. Pierce's FavoTite
Prescription, that they offer $500 reward
for women who cannot be cured of leucor-
rhea female weakness, prolapsus, or fall
ing of the womb. All they ask is a fair
and reasonable trial of their means of cure.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets clear the
complexion and sweeten the breath, they
bowels and produce permanent benefit and
do not react on the system. One is
