(which is used instead of alcohol, will
almost invariably cure those peculiar
weaknesses and maladies incident to
women. That is why DIR. Pierce, nearly
forty years ago. decided to put up in a
ready : to use form, Prescription
which he had found so useful In his
large practice.

peculiar weaknesses and maladieS, the
only medicine put up for sale through
druggists for the cure of such maladies,

best known remedies for the ailments for

1t stands alone. DIR. Pierce's Fa"orite
Prescription is the only medicine for
woman's peculiar weakness and affec-
tions. all the ingredients OF which are
printed upon the bottle-wrapper in plain

know exactly what they are using.
A further reason for the unprecedented
popularity of the "Favorite Prescription
of Dr. Pierce for the special use of women
is to be found in the fact that il contains
not drop of alcohol. He does not be-
lieye that an alcoholic compound is bene-
fetal for those affections peculiar to
women because the after-etfect of Spiritu-
Gus wines or alcoholic medicines is harm
full for weak, invalid, nervous women.
