almost invariably cure those peculiar
weaknesses and maladieS incident to
women. That is why DR.. Pierce, nearly
forty years ago. decided to put up in n
ready to use form, a Prescription
which he had found so Useful in his
large practice.
DIR. Pierce is frank and open about
his ready prepared medicine, called Dr.
PicrceS Favorite PreScription-h he tells
Just what IS contained in it-he says
it is not q cure-all, as it serves only n
SingleneSs of purpose, being for women'S
peculiar weaknesses and maladieS, the
only medicine put up for sa lie through
druggists for the cure of such maladieS,
all the ingredients of which have the en-
dorsement of leading medical practi-
TONERS and writers, as being the very
best known remedies for the ailments for
which "Favorite Prescription is advised.
All this will be learned to the readers
full satisfaction by perusing a booklet of
extracts compiled by DIR. Pierce from
standard authorities of the several schools
of practice. and which will be sent free
to any address on request for same,
mailed to DIR. II. Y. Pierce. Buffalo, n. Y.
1t stands alone. DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is the only medicine for
woman's peculiar weakness and affec-
tions. all the ingredients of which are
printed upon the bottle-wrappcr in plain
English. so that all who take it may
know exactly what they are using.
A further reason for the unprecedented
popularity Of the rFavorite Prescription"
of DIR. Pierce for the special use of women
is to be found in the fact that it contains
not drop Of alcohol. He does not be-
lieve that an alcoholic compound is bene-
fetal for those affections peculiar to
women because the after-effect of Spirtu-
Gus wines or alcoholic medicines is harm
full for weak. invalid. nervous women.
What "Favorite Prescription has done
for others 1t will no doubt, DO FOR YOU, II
similarly afflicted. and you give 1t . good,
fair and faithful trial.
