It Is astonishing how great n change
n few yoars OF married life often make
in the appearance and disposition Of
many women The freshness, the
charm, the brilliance vanish like the
bloom from a flower which is udely
handled. The matron is only q dim
shadow, q faint echo OF the charming
maiden. Few yonng vo:aen appreciate
the shock Of the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak-
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understand
ing that this secret drain is robbing the
cheek Of It's freshness and The form of
its fairness.
As surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement OF the health
OF the delicate womanly organs, so surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness.
More than q million women have found
health and happiness i'm the use Of Or.
Pierce's Fayorite Prescription. Itmakes
weak women strong and sick women
well. Ingredients on label--contains
no alcohol or harmful habit-forning
drugs. 1t is made wholly OF those
native, American, medicinal roots most
highly recommended by leading med
ical authorities OF all the several schools
OF practice for the cure Of woman
peculiar ailments.
For nursing mothers, or for those
broken-down in health by too frequent
bearing Of children, also Tor the expect
ant mothers, to prepare the system for
the coming of baby and make its adj
vent easy and almost painless, there is
no medicine quite so good as 0Favorite
Prescription. 1t can do no harm ln
Gny condition Of the system. IL is a
most potent invigorating tonic and
strengthening nervine, nicely adapted
20 woman's delicate system by a ply
sician of large experience in the treat
ment Of womau's peculiar ailments.
Bad symptoms. The woman who
has periodical headaches, backache, sees
imaginary dark spots or specks floating
or dancing before her eyes, has guaWing
distress or heavy full feeling in stomach,
faint spells, dragging-doWn feeling in
lower abdominal or pelvic region, easily
startled or excited, irregular or painful
periods, with or without pelvic catarh,
suffering from weaknesses and de.

likely to be present in any case at one

Neglected or badly treated nd such
