victory over President James w. Alexander.

scription now feel fully warranted i'll

Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Pro-

they cannot cure. All they ask is a
fair and reasonable trial of their
means of cure.
No other medicine than Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription could
possibly win on" as the saying
goes, on such proposition. But
they know whereof they speak. They
have the most remarkable record of
cures made by this world-famed REM
edy ever placed to the credit of any
preparation especially designed for
the cure of woman's peculiar all

fore, stands absolutely alone as the
only one possessed Of such umrivaled

remarkable offer above made in the
utmost good faith.
Their financial responsibility is
well known to every newspaper pub
Usher and druggist in the United

lily be seen how utterly foolish it
would be for them to make the above
unprecedented and remarkable offer
if they were not basing it on curative
means having an unparalleled record.

found this secret of perpetual youth.

have learned that fairness of face and

that the general health depends upon
the local womanly health. They es-
tablish regularity of the periods.
They dry the disagreeable drains
