sues Order Advancing Rat
ing of Institution

Enola, Pa, March 26.-Announce-
ment has recently been made that
the local High School has been Civ
en- first-class rating by the State
Board of Education. The advanced
ratlng was given by the state for the
high-grade work done by the school
last year. Much credit for the High

pal. Miss Markell has been a mem
Der of the faculty since the fall OF

years. Since becoming head of the

Daily Health Talks
The Troubles Women Have

BY L. MAC LEAN, NJ. D.
Probably no man in America was
ever better qualified to successfully
treat the diseases peculiar TO women
than DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, y. Y.
The cases that come TO him run
into many thousands. giving him an
experience that rarely comes to any
one man. DR.. Pierce found that in
nearly every case there were certain
vegetable growths which rarely
failed to give prompt relief in those
feminine disorders from which so
many women suffer. He combined
these roots and herbs into a tenn
perance medicine that he called DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for
that is precisely what it was. This
medicine is sold in both liquid and
tablet form by druggists everywhere.
favorite Prescription is a distinct
remedy for women and acts directly
upon the organs that characterize
the sex. 1t is not necessary to take
q long course of treatment with this
standard medicine. A weakly. sick
ly, hackachy, headachy. nervous, de-
spondent woman, with regular or ir-
regular pains-with feminine disor-
dcrs that come in youth or middle
pierce's Favorite Prescription the
exact remedy that her condition
calls for, and to find it after very
few doses are taken. Why women
should allow themselves to stay sick
when a very little money spent for
this remedy will probably make
them we'll, is something no one can
explain.
All women who suffer from femi-
nine disorders are invited to write
the Faculty of the Invalids' Hotel
Buffalo, y. Y, for free confidential
consultation and advice. no charge
being made for this high profess
S,onal service. This will enable
every woman to benefit by the ad-
Vice of the distinguished corps of
physicians which DIR. Pierce has
gathered about him in his celebrated
Buffalo institution.
When constipation is present with
feminine disorders. DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken
along with Favorite Prescription.
Try them now.
