The Many Mysteries of

You can take an onion seed and pansy

odor, and in the other you get flower Of
rare beauty. You can plant poppy seed

yet something that helps constipation.
No scientist, living or dead, can explain
these mysteries OF Nature. Behind the
invisible life germ in each seed is hidden
the deep secret that nobody understands.
Everything growing out OF the ground
seems intended for some use in establishing
natural conditions. DIR. Pierce, OF Buffalo,
N. Y, long since found out what is
naturally best for women's diseases. He
learned it all through treating thousands
81 cases. The result OF his studies was
medicine called DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. This medicine IS made oil

tended for backache, headache, weakening

Prescription is made Of lndy's slipper root,
