The first lesson that the young girl
has OF womanhood is usually painful
Que. She learns to know what head
ache means, and backache, and some
times is sadly borne down by this new

entirely prevented or cured by the use

MOTHER OF THE FAMILY.
the anxious mother of the family
oftentimes carries the whole burden of
responsibility 80 far as the home med
ication of common ailments of the girls
or BOYS are concerned. The cost of the
doctors visits are very often much too
great. At such times the mother is
invited to write to DR.. R. V. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N. Y, for medical advice,
which is given free. Correspondence is
held sacredly confidential.

A MOTHERS LOVE.
A mothers love is so divine that the
toughest man cannot help but appre-
ciate it rs the crown of womanhOOd.
However, motherhood is often looked
forward to with feelings of great dread
by most women. At such times a
woman is nervous, dyspeptic, irritable,
and she is in need of q uterine tonic
and nervinc, strength builder to fit
her for the ordeal. No matter how
healthy or strong a woman may be she
cannot but be benefited by taking DR..

for the event. 1t makes childbirth easy

Holidays coachman could not reach
the city until $50; so put on my hat
