Backed up by over a third of a century
of remarkable and uniform cures, a record
such as no other remedy for the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women ever
attained, the proprietors sud makers of
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel
fully warranted il; offering to pay $500 in
legal money for any case of L.eucorrhea,
Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of
Womb, which they canno cure. All they
ask is a fair and reasonable trial of their
means of cure.
Very often a married woman or young
girl does not know who to turn to for adj
vice in circumstances where she dislikes to
talk with the family physician about deli
cate matters. Al such times write to Dr..
R. v. Pierce, chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
OF Buffalo, N. V, for free consultation and
advice, and the same will be held as sa-
credly confidential. 1t is foolish to consult
women friends or persons without medical
training.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription con-
tains no alcohol, is entirely vegetable and
was the first exclusively wonlan's tonic on
the market-it has sold more largely in
the past third of a century than any other
medicine for women.
All other compounds intended for women
only are made with alcohol, or alcohol is a
large conponent-this alcohol Injuries the
nerves. The little red corpuscles of the
blood are shrunken by alcohol. All such
compounds, therefore, do harm.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets invigorate
the stomach, liver and bowels. Use them
with the "Favorite Prescription" when a
pill is required. One is a laxative, two, q
mild cathartic.

The majority of the new shapes are
adaptations from those of the Louis

The most novel hat of the season
