DAILY HEALTH TALKS
The Many Mysteries of
Nature
BY L. W. BOWER, NJ. d.

You can take an onion seed and a pansv
seed, and plant them side by side In the
same spot of ground. In one case, YOU
get an onion, with its peculiarly strong
Odor, ana In the other you get flower OF
rare beauty. You can plant poppy seed
and get opium Ia dangerous, habit-forming
drug, or you can plant rhubarb seed and
get something that helps constipation.
No scientist, living OF dead, can explain
these mysteries of Nature. Behind the
invisible Efe 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. DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo,
n. Y, long since found out what Is
naturally best for women's diseases. He
learned it all through treating thousands
OF cases. The result of his studies was a
medicine called DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. This medicine is made of
vegetable grOwths that nature surely in
tended for backache, headache, weakening
drains, bearlng-dOwn pains, periodical II
regularities, pelvic inflammations, and for
the many disorders common to women In
all ages of life. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is made of lady's slipper root,
black cohosh root, unicorn root, blue
cohOsh root and Oregon grape root.
Women who take this standard remedy
know that In DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scriptiOn they are getting a safe woman's
tonic so good that druggists everywhere
sell it.
Favorite Prescription should have the
full confidence of every woman In America
because II contains no alcohol and no
narcotic. DR. Pierce knew, when he first
made this standard medicine, that whiskey
and morphine are injurious, and so he has
always kept them out of his remedies

s Courage
When all seems dark, and all the best
of you
Has done its all, and nothing done
but lose,
Comfort your heart, fear not! That
you were true
Helps allthe world to keep its prom

To the brave heart there never
comes bad news.
But when the WEAKNESS and the long
drain
On your poor strength are break
ing down the door,
Lovely as starlight, blest as summer
How magical she is to see once
more!"
And children think of, laughing to see
you home,
Innocent hearts that break your
heart to see
And think of lonely seas and wander
ing foam,
Ships that from marvel unto marvel
roam,
Fearlessly voyaging through eter-
nifty.
And, howso hard the battle, it is
won;
YEA. all is won, though you have
lost it all;
Courage has always been the best Of

And thus to end it but to have be-
