 Dr. R. " Pierce, when a young and rising physician in Pennsylvania. learned the secrets of Natures heal ing; he noticed the effect of certain herbs that regulate the disorders of women, also that the Indian women passed easily through motherhood, and, using the same herbs and roots, he compounded an unequalled rem edy for women, which he called Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Thou sands of unsolicited testimonials from grateful women bear witness to it's healing powers. Dr. Pierce's phe- nomenal success was due to the puri- ty of his medicines and to the confi- dence he enjoyed as a leading and honored citizen of Buffalo. where he founded the 1nvalids Hotel known as a model sanitarium throughout the United States and Canada.
