young. She often resorts to paints,
powders and cosmetics to hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to
so-called "Beauty Doctors in the be-
Lief that money, will buy youth. Others
wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
70 hide your age, the more it shows.
There Is but one thing that holds old
age back, and that is health. Sickness
and weakness bring old age early in
life. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton is a building-up medicine for
women. It makes them healthy and
strong when they suffer from women 3
troubles. It keeps them looking young
by keeping them well. It is a woman p
tonic for the frail, the delicate and
those who are nervous, dizzy and who
have backache and dragging pains.
Favorite Prescription is altogether

alcohol. It is safe to take. Try it
