Periodic
 Palms..

Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are a most remarkable remedy for the relief of periodic pains, backache, nervous or sick head ache, or any of the distress ing aches and pains that cause women so much suffering.
 As pain is weakening, and leaves the system in an ex- hausted condition, it is wrong to suffer a moment longer than necessary, and you should take the Anti-Pain Pills on first in dication of an attack.
 If taken as directed you may have entire confidence in their effectiveness, as well as in the fact that they will leave no dis agreeable after-effects.
 They contain no morphine, opium, chloral, cocaine or other dangerous drugs.
 "For long time have suffered greatly with spells of backache that seem almost more than I can endure. These attacks come on every month. and last two or three days. I have never been able to get anything that would give me much relief until I be- began the use of pr. Miles Anti Pain Pis, ard they always relieve me in short time.
