ton, the proprietors of DR.. Pierce's Pa
vorite Prescription, that they offer $500
reward for women who cannot be cured
of leueorrhea, female weakness, prolapsus
or falling of the womb. All they ask is
fair and reasonable trial of their means
of cure. Their financial responsibility
is well known to every newspaper pub
Usher and druggist in the United States.
This wonderful remedy therefore stands
absolutely alone as the only one possessed
of such remarkable curative properties
as would warrant its makers in publish
ing such a marvellous offer as Is above
made in the utmost good faith. 1t is
medicine which has stood the test of a
third of century and numbers its cures
by the thousands.

for I thought that there was a chance
that my health might be restored to me.
It was in few months time. That was
all the time that had to use this won
derfu1 medicine before I was restored to
perfect health. It really seemed too good
to be true, but nevertheless it was, for
I have now been without pain for six
months, and gratefully do acknowl-
edge it."

often to blame for endan-

become hard to bear. What is needed
is a tonic for the womanly system.

hit upon certain roots, herbs and barks,
which, made into liquid tonic, gave
relief and strength to the wonian1y
system. During the past thirty-six years
this vegetable compound has sold more
largely than any other medicine intended
only for womans diseases. 1t is called
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Few
women in the United States have not
heard of its splendid remedial qualities,
for it is Prescription that can always
be depended upon when women suffer.
