HOW SHE KEEPS BEAUTIFUL
The Mystery Solved.

Like the flowers that bloom in the
spring the young girl just budding into
womanhood is an inspiring sight and
she is usually beautiful if she is per-
fectly healthy. She stays beautiful
Just so long as her health and constitu-
ton remain good. Let her be nervous,
have backache, sleepless nights, and
how soon does it take for wrinkles,
crows feet and dark circles to appear
in the face? Her cheeks were ROSY
until she began to suffer from woman'a
weaknesses and the constantly recur-
ring pains and drains brought her
quickly from the beautiful age to the
premature middle age. 1t was not
meant for women to suffer so-it is
due to our unnatural, but civilized
methods of living, and to the fact that
so many neglect those small ills which
soon lead up to larger ones. Nothing
so drags a woman down as those con-
stantly recurring periods when she
suffers more and more from a chronic
condition that can be easily cured. No
woman should take an alcoholic COM
pound for that will disturb digestion,
and the food is quickly compacted and
becomes hard and tough in contact
with alcohol, rendering the food in
digestble. She must go to Nature for
a cure. The native Indians of early
times were far from wrong when they
called marvelously effective medi-
cinal plant vSquaw root what the
physicians OF our day called Caulophyl-
lum or Blue Cohosh. This and Black
Cohosh, Golden Seal, Lady's Slipper,
and Unicorn root, are important
ingredients of a wonderfully success
full remedy in modern times, namely,
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Having mads specially of the diseases
OF women in the early sixties DR.. Pierce
soon found that a glyceric extract OF
these roots with Hydrastis or Golden
Seal and Lady's Slipper root, combined
in just the right proportions, made the
very best tonic and cure for the distress
sing complaints of women. Where
women suffered from backachs. weak
ness, nervousness and lack of sleep, ii
was usually due to functional trouble,
therefore this prescription directed at
the cause cured 90 per cent. OF such
cases. That is why DIR. Pierce soon
put it up in form easily to be pro-
cured all over the United States.
Aching from head to foot-thst Ia
the condition that afflicts some women
ut stated periods-backsche, dizziness,
and pains almost unbearable. An hon
est and q safe remedy which no woman
can afford to lose the opportunity OF
trying for the cure of these distressing
complaints which weaken q woman's
vitality il DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. DR.. Pierce not only assures
you that his vFavorite Prescription ia
honestly made, but he lets you know
just what it contains.
The best OF medical authorities recon-
mend and eXtol the virtues OF the above
ingredients In "Favorite Prescription"

Dr. John Fyfe, OF Saugatuck, Conn,
Editor of the Department Of Therapeu-
tics In THE ELECTIC REVIEW says OF Uni
corn root (Hslo1tas Dtotcd), one Of the
chief ingredients Of DR.. Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription: "A remedy which in
vsriably acts rs q uterine (womb) invig-
orator and always fsvors = conu siVr
which makes for normal activity OF the

utmost Importance to the general pree-
titioner Of medicine"
"In Helonias we have a medicament
which more fully answers the above
purposes than any other drug Nth which
I am acquainted. In the treatment Of
diseases peculiar TO women it is seldom
that a case Is seen which does not
present some indication for this RENE
dial agent"
