Wonan's Trials.

The bitter trail in woman's life Is Ia
be childlesS. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The alb
Sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
10 mutual a1ectlon is common disap-
polntment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent OF their disappointment in the ewes
OF such a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest family ydoeS not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenness or child
lessneSs the obstacle to child-bearing is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
tne part OF the woman. DIR. Pierce's Fa-
Vorlte Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many
a barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases. the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
Deen found to be of surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the 1nvalids' Hotel and Sur
glcaI Institute, Buffalo, n. Y, over which
DIR. Pierce of the rFavorite Prescription
fame presides. In all cases where chill
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be made to find out the real cause,
since it is generally so easily removed by
proper treatmen
In all the various weaknesses, diSplacc-
ments, prolapsus, Inflammation and de-
bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all
cases of nervousness and debility, DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is tho most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
1t has to its credit hundreds of thousands
OF cures more in fact than any other
remedy. put up for sale through druggists,
especially for woman's use. The ingredi-
ents of which the uFavorite Prescription
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Mdterid Medica of all
the several schools of practice. All the
ingredients are printed In plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle. so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. DIR Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the "Fayorite Prescription is
made will bear the most careful exam
ination.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
best and safest laxative for women.

Medical treatment almost wholly
confined to the day time is thought
by DI. Lauder, French physician,
to be serious mistake. Disease is
most active at night-asthma, epilepsy
and other attacks coming then almost
entirely, = and observations have
shown that medicine administered in
the night hours, or both night and
day. acts better and with greater
effect than an equal dose all given
in the daytime. 1t is explained that
IN the nocturnal fasting state the
body absorbs remedies with greater
energy, while they are eliminated
less quickly. In many instances
disease has resisted ali medication by
day, but has yielded to night treat.
