feeble women generally, DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is the greatest
earthly boon, being unequaled as an
appetizing cordial and restorative tonic.
AS soothing and strengthening ner-l
vine cFavorite Prescription is un-
equaled and is invaluable in allaying
and subduing nervous excitability, ir-
ritablity, nervous exhaustion, nervous
prostration, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms,
st. Vitus's dance, and other distressing,
nervous symptoms commonly attendant
upon functional and organic disease of
the uterus. 1t induces refreshing sleep
and relieves mental anxiety and des-
pondency.

above symptoms can afford to accept
any secret nostrum or medicine of un-
known composition, as substitute for
a medicine like DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, which is OF KNOWN COM
POSITION and has record of over forty
years of cures and sells more largely
to-day than ever before. Its makers
withhold no secrets from their patients,
believing open publicity to be the very
best guaranty of merit.
DR.. Pierce invites all suffering women
to consult him by letter free of chagM6,l

Sleep

Sleep is natures re-
building period, when the
energy used by the brain,
muscles and organs is re-
newed. If you lose sleep,
your system is robbed of
the strength sleep should
give. Continued loss Of
sleep multiplies this loss
until you become a phys
ical wreck. DR.. Miles
Nervine quiets the irri-
tated nerves and brings
refreshing, invigorating
sleep. Nervine contains
no opiates, and therefor
leaves no bad after-effects.
"For over two years I suffered UNI
told agonies; my friends thought
was going crazy. 1 could not sleep
nor rest at all. / tried different doc
tors. but failed to find relief. GIy
head would ache all the time; / was
like one drunk; could not concentrate

"The Bread Was Bully"

Once John Muir. author and ranch
man. was dining with a friend. They
sat down and Muir began to tell a
story. The waiter came around sew
eral times. but the story was so good
nothing was ordered. Muir talked and
talked. and in between he would reach
over and break off a piece of bread
from a French loaf on the table. This
he did a good many times. The story
reminded him of another. and so he
talked and ate bread. until finally. be-
ing very hungry, his companion broke
in with:
We'll. what shall l order for you,
Mr.. MUIR"
"Order.." he repeated in his abstrac-
ton.
Yes. order-to eat
He looked over. at the last little re-
naming piece of bread on the plate
and said. as if waking from a dream:
Eat. Why. I've had all I want
