OF
A WOMAN

Woman! The flower and transcend
ant beauty of all creationl What pains
does she suffer and what heavy bur-
dens does she bear, that she may be
the joy, the hope and salvation of man
kind, the race characterized by Shake
speare as the paragon Of animals
Dainty, delicate, intuitive, mysterious,
fastidious and charming, her beauty
and fascination spring from the source
OF her weaknesses; her very qualities
are born of her hidden infirmities.
And who can be more miserable, more
sensitive or more over-burdened by her
lot in life than an afflicted woman?
The German American Doctors come
to the timely aid of afflicted women.
The pains and annoyances of sup
pressed and irregular menstruation,
unhealthy discharges, ovarian infam-
nation and tumors, displacement OF
the womb, periodic headaches and
long train Of ills, causing hysteria,
bearing down and dragging sensations,
pains, aches, lassitude, loss Of energy,
and misery, constant, persistent and
discouraging, robbing the world of its
beauties and life of its charms, are
now cured by the German American
Doctors by a new discovery in medical
electricity and administered exclusively
by them.
NO REASON FOR SUFFERING.
There is no reason why you should
suffer day after day the torments OF
your trouble; you can be cured and
cured without the use Of the knife. II
is surely fad nowadays to cut; to
cut" for every little trouble; not with
the hopes or expectation of curing you
~ Aa
anything-that the results Of the cut
ting" Job will leave you in worse shape
than you were before the operation.
In justice to yourself, to your hus-
band and your children, make one more
attempt to get well; IL you are con-
templating an operation as a lasting
result, don't do it until you have talked
the matter over with some of your lady
friends who have undergone operation
after operation" Ask them what the
results have been: they will invariably
tell you that they were told by their
doctor that the one operation would
result in a perfect cure; but that even
as they were leaving the operating
table. the husband was told: we
have done the best we could, butt
will take another operation" That is
the truth; 1t is always another oper-
alton"
The German American Doctors can
cure you; at least, it will cost you
nothing to get the opinion of the "chief
Physician" as to the durability of your
troubles, and the institute stands back
of his work; if he should fail to satisfy
you with is treatment, your money will
be paid back TO you as readily as you
paid it to them. Go to them now; their
office hours begin at nine in the morn.

days, from nine until noon only. Their
