Nv mother"

A mothers worries are many. Shs
sometimes forgets her own bodily dis.
comforts because of her overpowerinq
love for the child. She becomes broken
down, ,sleepless, nervous, irritable and
feels tired from morning until night.
Many mothers Of experience can tell you
that at such time they have been re-
lieved, benefited and strengthened and
put into proper health by taking a pre-
scription which their mothers had told
them was the best woman's tonic and
nervine to be taken At such times. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription has en-
joyed an enviable reputation for over a
third of q century. In all that time il
has sold moro largely in the United
States than any other tonic for woman s
needs, and to-day its sales are greater
than ever. DR.. Pierce made up this
prescription from native medicinal roots
without the use of a particle of alcohol
and for the single purpose of curing
those. diseases peculiar to women and
when there is lack of womanly
strength to bear the burdens of maternal
duty. How few women come to this
critical time with adequate strength.
The reason why so many women sink
under the strain of motherhood is be-
cause they are unprepared. Is pre-
paration then required for mother
hood? asks the young woman. And
every experienced mother answers
-"Yes." 81 unhesitatingly advise ex-
pectant mothers to use Doctor Pierce
Favorite Prescription" writes Mrs. J.
w. G. Stephens, of Mia, Va. The rea-
son for this advice is that DR.. Pierce g
Favorite Prescription is the best pre-
parative for the maternal function. No
matter how healthy and strong woman
may be, she cannot use uFavorite Pre-
scription" as preparative for ma
ternity without gain of health and
comfort. But it is the women who are
not strong who best appreciate the great
benefits received from the use of NFa-
vorite Prescription" For one thing its
use makes the baby's advent practically
painless. 1t has in many cases reduced
days of suffering to q brief few hours.
1t has changed the period of anxiety
and struggle into time of ease and
comfort.
