Delicate, weak, nervous women should

medicines which, from their stimulat-
ing and exhilerating effects may seem,
for time, to do good, but which from
the inevitable effects of the alcohol in
shrinking up the red corpuscles of the
blood are sure to do great and lasting
harm in the long run. Besides they
beget craving for stimulants which is
most deplorable.
